Question Freeview connection to really old TV.

i have a really old TV and want to attach freeview to it!

I am trying to use the RF Out port, which could connect into two white and two red ports called 'video' in the back of the TV.

Would this idea work, and if so, what cable to i need (one with 4 connectors on the end i think!) but not sure which one!

Re: Freeview connection to really old TV.

Red/White is usually Stereo Audio Red is the Right Channel, White is Left. Are there no other ports?

Got a camera to take a picture of the back, or at least the make/model?
