You can also just get a 75 or 100 foot s-video cable..
At www.cablestogo.com, it's just $43 and $56 respectively..
Which is probably cheaper than two balun's and the hassle to go with
it..

Check out www.smarthome.com.  They have doodads (I think they're called 
balens or something like that) that will allow for this.  Not cheap, I'm

afraid.  Never used them, but they had better work for the price they're

asking :)
