RGB = 26
S-Video = 19
Both = 1

I know that it all depends on your tv, dvd player etc. But I wanted to get a general view on what people use.

I personally think that RGB is better if you have the TV to go with it, my 7 year old Samsung is not upto it - its too dark and blury, so i use s-video (which still looks fantastic). My player is an AIWA 370 (same as LG 3350, 3000, 4710 etc.)

Thanks for everyones time.

Yes RGB is technically the better as it's only slightly different than component video. Also RGB has twice the colour bandwidth of S-Video.
