Right, but my idea was to connect the Wii to the Panasonic DVD player's S-video in and then through RGB Scart out to the TV.
How inferior would that be to a direct RGB scart or component connection, in terms of PQ? gaffer BUT, in order to accept the S-video NTSC signal, the DVD player must be able to decode it too. |

If it was possible, there would be a slight decline in picture quality...

OK, so how would I test that?

So, you are saying that there is no difference between RGB Scart and S-video?
gaffer By the way, your DVD recorder won't convert S-VIDEO to RGB. It will however pass through S-VIDEO and output it via SCART. You will get better quality results if you connect directly to the TV. Does your TV have an S-VIDEO socket or 2 SCART sockets the second of which is S-VIDEO compatible? If only the latter is true you you could buy the Wii S-VIDEO cable and use an S-VIDEO to SCART adapter, such as this one. If your TV doesn't support S-VIDEO there is no point buying a Wii S-VIDEO cable! |

I'm not saying there's no difference, but some people have reported that the S-VIDEO output from their DVD player actually looked better than RGB SCART even though RGB is technically superior.
