[mythtv] Slightly OT - SVideo vs RCA

I know this question isn't directly myth related, but most of us will have 
dealt with the TV out options of our video cards.

I am running a GeForce 2 MX 200 with TV out.  The TV out is an SVideo 
connection.  If you want to use the RCA connection, there is a cable adapter 
to connect to the card allowing the use of the RCA cable.

Just wondering if there is a significant quality difference with SVideo over 
the RCA.  For movies my RCA connection is ok, but for the X desktop, you see a 
lot of noise.

Any comments/ideas to clean this up.
