1212.0. "S-VIDEO vs. Standard video?" by CPEEDY::FLEURY () Tue Apr 08 1997 15:41

    A question has arisen during the process of outfitting our new school
    around the need for S-video connections from a PC as opposed to using
    standard video.  Any opinions?  I've been told that there is little
    difference in quality using the VIDEO-IN on the set vs. using S-VIDEO.
    Assume for the comparison that the video card generates the correct
    signal in either case.
    
    Thanks,
    Dan

	I think you'll have to try it both ways to see which is better. If the S-video implementation is good, then it would probably be better. I assume you are talking about some sort of TV scan converter card - a normal PC video card won't display to a TV. Steve
