    Hello everybody, I'd need a combo VCR recorder/DVD player with an S-Video output that could work even for the VCR section. Unfortunately I couldn't find a player with these features anywhere.
    Does anyone know something similar?
    Thanks

  4. You can also use adapter between rca and s-video.
    See : http://www.svideo.com/svideorca.html

    Note : This should work for Italy too.

    That will only work for S-Video to composite not the other way around.

    Composite to S-Video is expensive and lossy. See:

    The JVC model is interesting, but I forgot to say that I'd also need to reproduce MPEG4 (such as DivX, Xvid etc...) on my player, and unfortunately the JVC models seem to have not this feature.
    So I'd definitively need a player with these features:
    VCR recorder/DVD & MPEG4 player
    VCR through S-Video
    DVD/MPEG4 through S-Video and SCART-RGB
    Do you know something like this?

    Now I'm pretty sure that a similar product doesn't exist...
