I used one of these back in the day. I had a laptop with S Video out and my VCR only had composite inputs in the front. As I recall it worked fine
“Usefulness” of this ‘S-video signal converter’ *Proved it’s worth* for this Video. *Thanks!* : }
One use I could see for this, I had a TV that would read a 240p signal as 480i over composite, but not over s-video or component. So something like the NES looked like hot garbage without some kind of workaround.
Techmoan once featured a LaserDisc player with an S-Video output…the actual signal on the disc is a composite analog signal, so that player essentially has this adapter built in.
I thought you were going to cut it open so we could see the black magic.
I had a few of these for my A/V setup in the early 2k.
Must buy a Canon EOS Rebel camera. A camera than can amaze me with its capabilities.
I don’t like or watch Shango066. I do like Mr. Carlson’s Lab, Bandersentv, Dave Tipton radio and of course Techmoan. But I can’t stand Shango.
I had a laptop that had an svideo output and no rca video out. it also had vga. it seems it was for connecting to a standard TV for presentations. it came with an adapter like that but longer.
I had one of those but it was a cable. It worked pretty well for using the TV as a second monitor back when laptops had an S-video out.
I can see this adapter working in certain specific instances… I have a Walmart Special (SV2000) DVD Recorder/VHS Combo. The front panel inputs (Input 2) feature a composite and S-Video input with shared audio input, and I can select the source for Input 2 via the menu system, so this could work to connect two devices to that one Video Input.
The audio from that Coby TV sounds a bit like being on speakerphone (Nortel Meridian phone system)…
“What begins with ‘come here,’ and ends with ow?” Gets me every time!
I thought to myself “he’s not going to play that video 4 times” and then he went ahead and did it like a boss! I absolutely love this level of detail, keep up the good work ❤️
Could you try a sequel to the Shazam video, but with Youtube’s content ID analyser? I think the results could be very interesting!
Interesting
I got one of these back when they came out. Still have it too. I used it to go from s-video to composite on my TV that didn’t have s-video.
I thought 💭 Radio Shack was defunct . Ya should name this “Power inverters and Converters”, as to rhyme things. Sounds like 👍 this could eliminate a lot of wiring. I think I could only find these at thrift stores, or yard sales. Your friend, Jeff.
Coby always made the crapest of the crapest products
I miss Radio Shack :/

In the past there would be an S-Video connector on GPUs along with VGA and even DVI. We’d have some cables with it in the box and one of those is an S-Video to composite cable. The cable has been in use for some time until the wire broke inside the cabling (most probably caused by abuse) and we decided to dissect the S-Video connector and connect new and improved cable. (a coax!) The composite plug cable isn’t coaxial – and that it connects to the pins of the S-Video connector…basically similar to your Y junction demonstration connecting chroma and luminance together
Wikipedia shows an S-Video to composite converter that puts a 470 picofarad capacitor between Y and C. The composite RCA plug center pin connects to the Y pin and the sleeve is ground as it is. Maybe you could try this and see if that’s what it takes to create that converter!
