JVC indeed developed svideo and the cables were/are used to transmit svideo as well
as regular video. I have yet to see or hear of svideo for digital video. There may
be such but it was developed for tape preperation and cable I/O and I'm not sure
you can apply it to digital I/O. Actually, it is next to impossible to find sxhs
compatable tape
