Hey Bruce, As I recall the WS manual states that the television should be shut off when connecting an S-video cable, and that the PB should be put to sleep. Two questions: 1. Is there any type of voltage on a S-video line? 2. Does putting a PB to sleep (a WS in this case) have any effect on the ports? (I've always assumed that the reason Apple recommends putting the PB to sleep for some connections is that the when a PB wakes up, the OS scans the ports each time, thus would recognize a new connection that was done during sleep. I don't know if that is correct or not.)
