~ Composite Video — One BNC female connector is provided
for NTSC or PAL composite video, a signal that typically
originates from a VCR or camera. An adapter may be
required when connecting this input to consumer equipment,
which typically uses a phono connector for composite video
(professional equipment typically uses BNC connectors).
~ S-Video — One 4-pin mini-DIN connector is provided for
NTSC or PAL S-Video, a signal that is typically of higher
quality than composite video, and originates from many DVD
players and cameras. Note that this connector can
alternatively be used to connect a second composite input. In
this case, a special cable will be needed to convert from the
mini DIN connector to BNC (or phono) connector that is
typically used for composite video signals.
