I looked for months for an s-video Y-cable in the US with no luck. I was told they don't work very well. Appearently the signal strength gets halved. I put one together myself which worked for my purposes. My cable run was very short - under 10 feet.

There are s-video spliters with active electronics that are purported to work well, but the prices I've seen start at US$100.
