Definitions of y/c:

• Luminance and Chrominance (color) video signals, respectively. See, also, S-Video.

• A term used to describe the separation of video signal components used in systems such as Hi-8* and S-VHS*. Generically called S-Video. YUV: A video system employing luminance* and two chroma components directly related to the red and blue components. This professional component video system is used in studios and requires special equipment. Interface devices are used to link the various component systems, ie, RGB*, Y/C*, YUV and YIQ (a system similar to YUV).

• Luminance and Chrominance, ie, the 'brightness information' and 'colour information' parts of a composite video signal. The symbol Y was chosen long before the computer age, when TV and printing technologies were unrelated (the potential confusion being that Y also stands for yellow). YS: Yellow Submarine (we all live in one). Beatles inspired name for Sea & Sea's first ever product (a flash unit). Sea & Sea strobes are still called "YS", even though most of them aren't yellow any more.

• Luminance and Chrominance. Another term for S-Video where the luminance and chrominance are separate from one another so they can be processed more effectively.

• A video format found in Super-VHS video recorders. Luminance is marked with Y and is produced separate to the C, which stands for chrominance. Thus, an S-VHS output Y/C requires two coaxial cables for a perfect output.

• The S-VHS and Hi8 component video standard. Video is separated into luminance (Y) and chrominance (C) signals, but is carried on a single cable.

• video signal type Also known as S-video. Employed with Hi8 and S-VHS video formats and analog output -on digital camcorders. Transmits luminance (Y) and chrominance (C) portions separately via multiple wires.

• Luminance and Chrominance video signals. This two signals are carried by an S-video connection to create a complete image.

• Abbreviation for luminance/ chrominance, aka S-video signal. Color and detail signals are kept separate, thus preventing composite video artifacts. Cable uses four-pin connector. Used with S-VHS VCRs, DVD players, Hi-8, and DBS receivers.

• A method of transmitting the Luminance and Chrominance parts of a color video signal separately down individual wires.
  www.istimaging.com/t-y.html
• A technology for transmitting video signals over a cable by dividing the video information into two separate signals: one for color (chrominance), and the other for brightness (luminance). When sent to a television, this produces sharper images than composite video, where the video information is transmitted as a single signal over one wire. This is because televisions are designed to display separate Luminance (Y) and Chrominance (C) signals. (The terms Y/C video and S-Video are the same.)
  www.ucla.cyberstuff.net/glossary_digital_media.htm
• S-Video, also known as Y/C and (incorrectly) SVHS, is an analog video signal. S-Video will appear better than composite video since the TV does not have to decode the brightness and color information that are found together on composite video.
