S-Video

Short for Super Video.

A

 high-quality method of transmitting video signals over 

cable

 to 

a

 television from 

a

 device such as 

a

 Camcorder VCR 

or

 game 

machine

.

S-Video

 separates information into two signals: Chrominance (separates color information) 

and

 Luminance (brightness).This prevents color bleeding 

and

 dot crawl, 

and

 increases clarity 

and

 sharpness.Once the information is finally delivered to the TV 

it

 is done 

so

 as 

a

 single signal over one wire.
