hi all -
i recently bought a new 32" sony tv (32s42?). since it has s-video capability, i ran a s-video cable (rat-shack gold) from my dvd player (sony 560d) to the tv.
i didn't see much improvement. the edges did not seem any sharper and curved edges had the same amount of "jaggedyness". i froze some dvd scenes to try to compare.
i had both composite and s-video hooked up simultaneously. i compared the s-video input, then unplugged it and checked the composite input. everything looked the same.
so, am i missing something? (even though i'm not a believer of hi-end cabling, i'm going to buy some "better" cable and see if that makes any difference.) or is my eye just not sensitive enough?
