SunVideo Plus Hardware

The SunVideo Plus card is installed in a PCI-bus slot. The card contains two Composite IN ports, and one S-Video IN port. For audio signals, SunVideo Plus also contains one port for line level OUT, one port for headphone level OUT, and one input port that can be configured through the software as either line or microphone level IN.

SunVideo Plus supports both Composite and S-Video inputs. S-Video can provide a much sharper image than Composite video, with better color separation. S-Video uses a four-pin, mini-DIN connector, which provides separate Y (luminance) and C (chrominance) signals.
