Default Re: Converting component to S-Video

Hi,

Component contains luminance and colour difference signals; S-Video is PAL/NTSC encoded chrominance plus luminance.

So... you'd need a PAL encoder to turn the colour difference signals into chrominance. It's likely that there's an off-the-shelf IC that'll do it; I'm more familiar with encoders which have RGB input as that's more widely used here than 'component'.

Regards, Kat
