Does the S-Video make the quality look any better in a T.V. (not HDTV)? Also can I play my dvds through S-Video or do I have to play it the regular way?
Just wondering....

HardKore said:cool man :tu: I got one the only problem is that my PS2 is hooked up my vcr which is hooked up to my stereo and all that good stuff. I didn't feel like detaching my ps2 from all that mess. But I am gonna check it out and see if it really works.
thx
HardKore said:well Finding Nemo did show up a little better in the s- video than it did with the regular cable. You can really notice it in Nemo's orange color and when it shows sunlight shining through the water.
conclusion: All in all if you got s-video jack for your t.v. and and a spare 20 bucks go and get yourself a pair of s-cables for your t.v. It really looks better.

I would but my Ps2= my dvd player.... Is there a way around that? I'm not big on home electronics.Stock? said:actually if you went up the next step and use the color coded cables (green,ect,ect,) from your dvd player it would look even better :tu2: S-video is kinda the middle level to a clear picture

well....now I have have my PS2 hooked up to my S-video jack. I looked behind my TV and have component video jacks. I see a blue, green, and a bunch of reds and whites. I just don't have an actual DVD player becuase my PS2 serves as it.trail_boss2 said:ok i checked and i got my component video cables at best buy. They have them at wal mart also. They are dark green, light green, 2 reds, and 1 white. The only problem is you have to have component jacks on your tv and i think you mentioned that you use your vcr for your ps2 so that wouldnt work.
No you dont need them at all, but they will make even more of a difference than s-video will. If you have the component video jacks on your tv then go buy some and use them. i think they are like $20 or so. You can still use your ps2 for a dvd player, thats what i do. You will have 5 wire with the component video cable. the 5 i mentioned above. the 2 greens are video and the rest are audio i think. You should have no problems usuing component video with your tv. just unplug the s-video cable and plug all the component video cables in.HardKore said:well....now I have have my PS2 hooked up to my S-video jack.

Yes they do make them especially for ps2. Make sure if you get them you watch pop in finding nemo or another pixar movie so you can see the difference. You notice a big difference on your games and a huge difference on movies.HardKore said:wait a sec... you mean that they make component cables that I can use for my PS2?... :confizzled:
