hmmmm
go buy a video card with s-video out..
take out the cable
return the card... they dont notice the little things.

Keep in mind thought that RCA video runs 350 lines of resolution, and S video is 450 lines.


and in some T.V. that have digital comb filter, the reduced lines of information will look blurry since the filter tries to smooth the image too much.

yah what he said ^
why do u need it anywayz?

Its to hook up a Macrovision Decoder I picked up. It only has S-Vid input and my VCR is RCA only.

DONE! Got a connector from Skid and worked like a hot-damn!

Thanks buddy! Now I can (eventually) get that damn VCR out of my entertainment cabinet!
