For my own curiosity, what composes an S-Video cable? I understand
there are two signal conductors (luminosity and colour) each with
their own ground in a shielded cable. Is each analog signal twisted
around its ground? If so, could twisted shielded CAT5 work as a
substitute? For long runs, would putting each signal on its own
co-axial cable and running two co-axial cables be a better plan?

I have found it rather hard to find any S-Video cables longer than 12
feet. I eventually found a 25 foot cable. I am uncertain of the
quality, but it was literally the only one I found in the city (though
I probably don't know the best place to look).

Cheers,
Shaun
