Can you use ADB cables for S-video? I recently discovered I can connect my DVD to an old monitor, if I make a cable with S-video on one end, and 2 RCA males on the other...can I lop of the end of an old mouse and wire it up?
You can use S-Video cables for ADB but not the other way around. S-Video has two shielded cables in it. But the are wired through pin to pin so they will work for ADB which doesn't need the shielding. But ADB cables are usually just four wires. It might work, especially for short distances, but not terribly well.
