What do you guys all use to connect things like your X-Box/PS2/DVD player to your TV?
I'm currently using scart to scart and wondering if switching to S-Video will yield a decent increase in picture quality.
Would it?

Depends what inputs your tv has really.
Unless you want to be swapping cables all the time just use the best possible for each one.
You might only have 2 s-video in's.
After s-video use RGB scart.

And as to the increase in picture quality i'm a believer of unless you have amazing sources for everything to come from its not going to make a massive difference.

well tried S-Video last night and it certainly made a difference. Films were sharper and the clarity inproved.
This was playing films off the PS2 so not the best DVD player ever  have purchased a cable to go from DVD player > S-Video on the Tv

Thats the way mine is connected up on the tv downstairs.
Just put everything else in an RGB scart.

can you get DVD players with S-Video out connections? So you can run S-Video > S-Video?
