    do any of you guys know if we use s-video will the xbox pump out high res to your tv. from what I understand s-video bypasses your tv comb filter. anyone?

    check the back of your tv. it may have one. it is shaped like a ps2 connection and i do not mean play staion. kind of like a mouse port but bigger.

    Don't use the S-Video through your DVD, for the absolute best quality a direct connection to the TV is necessary. Use your RCA cables (only use the Yellow one (I think) for Video. The Red and Yellow ones are for Audio.

    If I'm correct, you'd wanna set up the XBOX with the RCA cables in this way to have the best quality, if you don't have S-VIDEO.

    Yellow Cable (Video) Into TV
    Red/White Cable (L and R Audio) Into TV or Reciever

    Anybody know what I'm talking about?
    It's as if you were setting up your DVD player.

    yeah, BUT, youd put the video in the reciever cause most recievers have a signal boost and smooth pass on em to make the graphics look even better
