Hi,
Yes, it can be done, but you need some electronics skills to be able to do it. There are electronics parts available that will allow you to separate the video into its separate components, the `Y` and the `C`, where the `Y`is the luminance information and the `C` is the chroma, or color.
There are probably devices on the market that'll allow you to do it, but since I haven't searched the web for them, I can't be sure.
Depending on your source and electronics savvy, you may also be able to break into the device you're using and tap off at the appropriate places to achieve the same thing.
Not much to go on I know, but I hope it helps,

How can you convert component video to VGA for monitor?
You will need a converter box. It isn't as simple as a cable to convert one to the other. There are many on the market, Google Component Video to VGA converter.
Can HDMI convert to component video?
You cannot convert one to the other. HDMI is digital, and has built-in Digital Rights Management (copy protection). Component is analog and has no protection. Some upper model surround receivers can 'up convert' component to HDMI, but will not allow HDMI sources to play on a TV with only component video inputs.
Do you connect s video cable to the tv and to a Bose system?
s-Video is pretty much a dead standard. You should use it only if your tv does not have component video or HDMI.
Is s video better than rca?
RCA connectors can be used for both composite (1 connector) video and component (3 connector) video. The quality order is: BASIC - Composite (1 RCA wire, Yellow) BETTER - S-Video (1 wire, usually black) BEST - Component (3 RCA wires, Red, Green Blue) Composite can only send standard definition video, up to 480i. S-Video can only send standard definition video, up to 480i. Component can send video up to 1080i High Definition.
Which gives the best picture s video or component cables?
Component (red-green-blue) 3 wire RCA will always have a superior picture.
Is it worthy to convert an S-VIDEO signal to a component one?
Yes, the component input will yield a better picture than the s-video input.

How can I connect a laptop without s-video port to tv?
There is a device called a "scan converter" which can be used to convert various video signals from one type to another. Some scan converters can be used to convert a VGA (also called D-SUB) or DVI connection (whichever is appropriate for your laptop) to a S-video or component signal to input into your TV.
Can you a make s video to component adapter i need to convert an xbox yellow component cable just the yellow one to a s video. I have seen adapters but i want to make one myself solder 2 wires?
It is certainly possible to build a circuit to encode a component signal into an S-video signal and to convert S-video back to component. To do so will require significant electronics skills, a fairly complex circuit design and a complex build. Testing and set up will require a good qualityoscilloscope, signal generators and sufficient understanding of color encoding to interpret the test results.To buy the components will cost more than purchasing a commercial converter, will take far longer than buying one and is unlikely to operate as well as the commercial version.
Is the Cables To Go RapidRun Component Video + S-Video very versitile?
It is able to support multiple signals over a single cable, including VGA, component video, S-video, analog and digital audio, and any combination of HDMI and DVI.
What types of component video are there?
Component video is a video signal that has been split into multiple component channels. There are two types of it, RGB analog component video and Luma-based analog component video.
How do you convert s video to composite video?
You need a RF modulator to convert the signal to a (RF) TV channel. The audio and video quality will be lower doing this.
Where would one be able to purchase S Video to component cables?
S Video to component cables can be purchased at many retailers as they are very common. Some of these retailers include Walmart, Staples, or Office Max.
Which television input has the best picture DVI S-video component HDMI cable?
HDMI is by far the best. and S-Video is better than the VIDEO connection.
Can one connect a 7 pin S video PC socket to a 3 jack component video connection on a tv resulting in a higher component quality signal than making the via a 4 pin S video cable?
No, the S-cable is the weak link in your plan.
Do you connect s video cable to the tv and to a Bose system?
s-Video is pretty much a dead standard. You should use it only if your tv does not have component video or HDMI.
