the rt.x10 breakout cable has two composite video connectors (one input and one output), and two s-video connectors (one input and one output). most video equipment uses composite video, but some devices (for example, s-vhs vcrs) use s-video, which provides a higher quality video signal.
if you have a video device with s-video connectors, you should use the matrox s-video in and out connectors on your breakout cable. you can use the matrox s-video connectors instead of梠r in addition to梩he composite video connectors. if you use composite and s-video connectors, you can connect up to four video devices to the rt.x10 at the same time (two input and two output).
rt.x10 video output is simultaneous on its composite (video) and s-video (s-video) lines. both video input types can be connected at the same time, but only one video input signal at a time can be used by rt.x10. you need to select either the composite video input or the s-video input signal in adobe premiere.
