Yes, if you have an S-Video input on your TV then my all means use it!
I am using an S-Video cable and I really can't notice ANY difference. Perhaps it's because I don't have HDTV, perhaps it's because the difference is so slight. I don't know. I would need two tvs/two xboxs to compare. I don't notice a major difference. Perhaps it is a bit more brighter.

I noticed a big difference in Halo, the colors are so vibrant and clear.
you serious? Well... I'm using a Sony trinitron 32" from four years ago. I'm not quite sure what S-Video cable I have. I bought it off eBay and it didn't come with a box. It's xbox green colour.. I'll show you the website. just let me fidn it.Originally posted by Invalid Name

checkout my nice feedback rating 95% of that is from selling.
Yeah, I noticed a pretty big improvement with S-Video, if you have a good TV it should look much better.

No offense, but yor cables suck. You should have gotten the ones with the yellow lead to. You only have a white, red, and S-vid lead.
I actually have a 46" Zenith that I bought in 1993!! It's old, but it's a darn good TVOriginally posted by wweomaniac

That's all you need for s-video. The s-video cable is superior to the red/white/yellow that you speak of.Originally posted by Invalid Name

LOL... you don't need white. The white's there just incase you bring your xbox over to your friends house and they don't have a S-Video port (or a situation like taht) Mine does it's job. Did you think i was listening to just audio?Originally posted by Invalid Name

My S-Video has the red, white, yellow, AND the S-video lead.That's all you need for s-video. The s-video cable is superior to the red/white/yellow that you speak of.
WWE: Oh, I thought that may have been why you haven't seen a difference, since I have that and I have seen a difference.
So the S-video cable IS good after all......Man, I am gonna get it for sure now! It would run really sweet on my 60" HDTV with Halo. Thanks guys.

Whoa! If you've got an HDTV get an HD AV Pack with component video cables. S-Video is of lesser quality than component.
I have the Microsoft Advanced AV pack so that I can put a good S-Video and Optical audio cable on there and it makes a HUGE difference. I didn't realize it because I got so used to the clairty on the S-Video input, but the other night my normal gaming tv was in use so I just grabbed my xbox and my old standard video cable and went into the bedroom to play and I was totally shocked at the difference.
Here's how bad I suck

What are you thinking? Get an HD A/V pack like Hugh said and connect it to one of the DTV component inputs on your TV. Enable the 480p/720p/1080p output from the X-box dashboard (you'll get the option once you connect the HD A/V pack), then Halo will have you sh*t'n your pants!!Originally posted by cityson

You don't NEED the yellow lead for S-video. The yellow lead IS NOT S-video.Originally posted by Invalid Name

If you've got HDTV, then get the HD pack and run component cables. S-video can't hold a candle to progressive HD.Originally posted by cityson
