S-Video -> RCA cable (the kind with two cables coming out)
RCA y-cable

So what do you is connect the green plug into the one of the rca ends on the s-video cable that corresponds to the luma signal. Next you take the y-cable and plug in the blue/red cables into the end with two plugs on one side. Then you plug in the other end of the y-cable and connect it to the other rca plug on the s-video->rca cable. If you don't get a picture, swap the green and y-cable. If you still don't get anything, you'll probably need to get a converter.
Thanks. That sounds promising. Do you have a picture or link to a picture that shows the cords needed? I understand what a y-cable is, but not sure about the one with "two cables coming out."
