Component or SVideo

Im running a 20M cable and have the option of S Video or component.
Between a DVD player and projector. (No High def here)
Anyone know which will be best quality or if there will even be any difference?

Cheers

I run 20M component from my Xbox/DVD player to my projector and the quality is fine.

S-video is lower quality anyway so I'd go with component.

Also, do you mean component or composite? Component is red, blue & green and Composite is a single yellow. If you do mean COMPOSITE, use S-video otherwise COMPONENT.

I did it with a 15m one.. I tried a mixture of S-Video and Component but still found the component better easily.

One thing I did was cheat was to use a wireless video sender from my TV-Out port to my projector.. Saved running a cable but the only bastard was it didn't always like my wireless net. So went on ebay and purchased a 20m cable for £5.. Did the job perfectly
