Is there any way to accurately portray the glory of S-Video on a CRT TV?

>> No.4084002

Sorry, meant to say "To someone using a digital TV"
Like can it even be recorded in such a way as it is in the picture?

If you are wanting to focus on the visual intricacies of a certain display device, then no, I guess it wouldn't be possible to capture it in a photograph that is then viewed on an entirely different display device.

Honestly, if you want or need pixels that sharp, you might a swell just emulate and save the hundreds of dollars on equipment that was never meant for gaming.

Has someone ever explained what a color you've never seen before looks like?

RGB with sync on composite is roughly equal in quality to s video. Sure the RGB way has a seperate wire for each colors signal, but it's sync signal is shit and not as good as sync on Luma. On a consumer set, the difference between the two is negligible

The best SNES experience is one of the original models (1990-1994) using S-Video on a CRT with the sharpness turned all the way down. Looks sexy as fuck, none of that sharp and jaggy shit that the kids these days love so much... looks like emulated shit to me.

Really depends upon the quality of RGB from the console and the tv in question.S-video can look very nice depending upon what encoder the console uses. It is a little harder to dial in S-video than Component/RGB color wise.

RGB certainly makes a bigger difference on HD sets/upscalers as every flaw will be apparent vs S-video and the like.

On my consumer Toshiba set rgb/component is noticeable and worth it for me , but to some it may be negligible. It certainly is expensive to setup if you have a lot of consoles vs S-video.

It certainly isn't as big of an upgrade from Composite to S-video. Composite looks like shit unless you have a good comb filter from a later gen crt, but even then it looks pretty bad.

Also you forgot Csync, which is the best form of sync you can have, then luma sync, then composite video sync (which is not Csync, stupid I know)

Whoever came up with this name like the Xbox One and confusing people forever should be penciled in for a sudden visit by the angel of death.
