There is nothing intrinsically wrong with this product but get a bonafide signal switcher if running two devices or you will get ghost signal.
While splitting off s-video will always cause signal loss, the shielding works pretty well in this one. This a good, solid, well-built cable. There are cheaper adapters that split the signal at the plug, but this at least extends out and gives you room to work.
I hope other cable manufacturers come up with the same thing to give this a little competition. But the price is not right. Great product. Does exactly what it says. The manufacturing cost of this little Y cable can't be that high.
I wanted to be able to DVD record off my DirecTV Tivo unit and needed to split the S-Video output b/w my Onkyo receiver and the DVD recorder. I was a little worried that my signal/resolution would degrade after installing this splitter cable, but that wasn't the case. This cable was the solution, worked perfectly.
Cables To Go sells them too). This is a must if you want to record montages. As always, Cables To Go exceeds my expectation with cables that are not only high quality, but durable. I purchased this particular S Video splitter so that I could record gameplay from my xbox and see what I am doing at the same time. (If you are using S Video, then this is the cable for you, if you are using AV in-puts, then get AV splitters.
