Cable adapters - bad idea?
My vcr (Panasonic AG-5710) has S-Video and BNC outputs. My capture card (Hauppauge PVR-250) has an S-Video input. Some of the VHS tapes I am in the process of capturing are in need of some color correction. The hardware processors I have been able to find in my price range only have composite connections. Am I setting myself up for some really bad results by using cable adapters? Thanks for any advice.

Composite connections are inherently inferior to s-video (separated video).
The higher-end broadcast proc amps vary in price.
Note that proc amp work is best served by a s-video signal, too -- the composite signals don't adjust nearly as well. Your BNC connectors can be fitted with inexpensive composite adapters. Now those are fine. I use those on my Panasonic AG-1980P unit, although I almost never use the composite output. |
Thanks for the reply. I appreciate it.
