- Hi!
-
- I've got my JVC SVHS VCR hooked up to my 1084s using the S-video hookup, and
- its GREAT!
-
- I couldn't find a cable ANYWHERE, so I made it myself. I used the
- S-Video cable that came with the VCR, and cut/stripped it to show the 2 sets
- of wires in the S-video cable. Then I put the A1084s into the split chroma/
- luminance mode, and plug in RCA cables that I had similiarily stripped to the
- wires. Then, using the luminance RCA cable, try finding the wires off the
- S-video that will give you a black & white picture. Once that's done, tape up
- the cable, and the other group should hook up to add in the color!
-
- Took me all of 10 minutes from stripping the cables to finishing up the
- tape-up of the spliced wires.
-
- Good Luck! Its worth your effort.
