You can hardly see a difference when looking to the movie itself. There's not much more quality possible with rgb instead of svideo. This is not because rgb doesn't provide a better picture but because of the capabilities of the tv sets (limitation of the video amplifiers to the cathode ray tube and the hole mask itself). Mine is a 72cm Sony, a good one. If the screen goes smaller you would see less artefacts. I think complaining about worse quality on a 32cm screen has more to do with believing as with seeing (or there is a heavy electrical adaption problem)...

The problem is, if you only have S-Video or composite, the quality is a
lot worse than with analog. The strengths of digital are clear
colourfull still-images, but it sucks at movement. The strength of
analog television is movement but it sucks at colourfull images. So what
do you get? A system that sucks at everything.

And just think of the complicated setup of a composite TV. How do you
set the colours? Maybe it would help if we could have somekind of
test-image.
