What is the difference between HDMI and S video?
There are three differences: S-video is an analog connection while HDMI is digital and carries audio as well as video signals. HDMI cables can carry a wide range of SD and HD signals while S-video is a signal type restricted to standard definition only. HDMI carries a component signal, a better quality signal than the color encoded signal carried on S-video. So, given the choice, HDMI will normally provide a better image, even if it is carrying SD and is the only choice for HD content.

How does S video cable compare to HDMI?
High Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI) cables are generally used for connecting computer based devices to your television. S video cables are used to connect traditional DVD players, video recorders to television sets.
What HDMI port do you connect s video wire to?
HDMI and S-video are completely incompatible connectors. HDMI carries digital data in component or RGB formats while S-video is a 2 wire analog signal. The two cannot be connected without using digital - analog or analog - digital converters. To use an S-video source with a new television, look for analog connectors on the rear of the television or in the manual. Most televisions have an analog input although it may be composite rather than S-video. Almost all sources that have an S-video output will also have a composite output. A little research into the available connectors on the source and the television should produce a workable result.
Do you connect s video cable to the tv and to a Bose system?

HDMI is a connection plug on the back of HDTVs to allow other devices to be connected to the HDTV. Before HDMI they used S Video and Component connections to connect devices

The S-video connector will render a better picture than the yellow video connector but not as good as the component or HDMI connectors. These are the best to use if your equipment has them.
