Since you go on about "concrete evidence", I'd remind you that S-video
will give a maximum line resolution of 460,

So Morgan, supply the "concrete" evidence that S-Video has a "maximum
line resolution of 460"

An engineer at Kontron Instruments where I worked measured it. In the
event, DVI was selected, though S-Video was provided to allow recording
on "standard" VCRs in teaching environments. This was for medical
monitoring equipment.

So what do you say it is? No doubt you've got resolution test cards, so
I'd be interested in what line resolution you get.

For goodness sake, S-Video is just an analog connection between two pieces of
video equipment just like component though in some respects better.

The "resolution" depends on the equipment at either end.

Yes, any analog connection is lossy but it's a percentage loss not an absolute
loss.
