If you can use S-video, use it, even though with a 32" TV, you will not notice much, if any, difference between composite and S-video. With a 50" plus projection TV, you should notice a difference.

Some people avoid the processor video switching and go direct to the TV. I tested my Rotel pre/pro/switcher and could not tell a difference. I do not go direct to TV from DVD.

I do need to run both composite and S-video connections from my processor/switcher to the TV. The VCR and Cable TV only support composite. So I use S-video when I play DVD and composite for VCR and Cable.
