S-Video to Y/C cables - they do exist

It's s-video to RCA..
Not sure if the right wires are wired to the right spots, but for $2, figured I'd give it a shot.
Worst case, more fun stuff for my junk drawer..  ;-)

Yes, I'm talking to myself.
Got the cable and it doesn't work as is.
I'm sure I'll be able to rewire it, but it will take some recabling.
The luma is on the ground side of one of the RCA plugs.  
Didn't find Chroma initially, but I'm thinking it might be the center of the same plug.  Not sure tho..

I know, I should have multimetered it, but it was easier to just give it a quick try. ;-)

I already have a cable I made for that purpose.  Using it for my Amigamaniac s-video adapter to the 1701.  Looks pretty good.

But I want another cable for my 3DO, so I can use the lightgun.  
(The 3DO is on the LCD tv in the living room now, so no lightgun, but it has s-video.)
