1st Choice 6 feet Gold Plated S-Video Cable

Excellent cord to own when you need Video to DVD transfers

does its job

I needed this to replace an older S-Video cord that no longer worked. This works great. It does what it should and it seems to be a thicker, more high quality cord than it's counter parts and the same price point. I've been using it for a day now to connect my laptop to my TV when I watch movies or shows online. It is to be noted if you are buying this cord for the same purpose you should by an Audio Y media splitter with 1 mini plug and 2 RCA cables (red and white) to transfer audio to an external device. It's a great investment. I have no problems with this cord and recommend it to anyone who needs one.

But works great.

This is a pos. Doesn’t work and can’t return or replace. I got robbed $9. DON’T WASTE YOUR MONEY!!

Gold plating is nice, but really isn't as necessary as you might think. It is there as an anti-corrosive measure to make sure your outputs don't rust or corrode beyond use. However, for the price you pay on these cables, they are actually good quality. I had to splice one of these cables and found the shielding to be adequate. It isn't the best by any means but they do actually shield the Y and C lines separately and adequately. The only downside I can say is they do not have individual ground shielding, but this is minor at best and is not something you'll notice unless you're interested in high-production value (who uses S-video for Hi-Def anyway?) and even then the ground does not need as much shielding as the Y/C inputs, which do have individual shielding.

Works great

I was going through some of my old electronics and found a VCR to DVD recorder that "WORKS". Now we have all the things that copy and record, but this is an old Zenith and it works!!!The downside!! I only have "ONE" S-Video cable, I needed two. What really makes me happy is that my Sharp 55" TV actually has an S-Video input, go figure!! (old TV but works like a charm). So I can actually use the recorder!! The next necessary connection would be the S-Video to HDMI!Thanks again Amazon, and your vendors.
