What is the different between s video cable and ypbpr cable?

S-Video is a type of composite video signal. The 4 pins are Chrominance, Luminance, and 2 grounds. Your standard composite video cable combines Chrominance and Luminance into one signal, which is then separated again by the TV. An S-video cable removes this step. The "y, pB, pR" cable set is known as "component" video. this cable goes one step further than S-Video, breaking down the Chrominance signal to individual colors, using Red (pR), Blue (pB) and Luminance (y). The TV then uses additive and subtractive methods to determine Green.

Why wont your s video cable work between your projector and tv?

Your TV is unlikely to have a S-Video output to go to the projector. What most TV's had was a S-Video input, to come from a Super VHS VCR or older generation gaming console. If indeed the TV has a S-Video OUTPUT, and the projector is set to the correct input (usually this has to be changed in the input menu) and you are still not getting any picture, I would check the S-Video cable for bent pins. The cable's pins are very thin and can easily be bent or broken off with rough handling.
