splitting S video output?

Posted by satz24 on June 12, 2008 at 20:35:26:
hi all

I have a single S video output from my cable TV box, which I'd like to run to my TV and to my HD recorder.

If I just get a y-cable splitter would that result in a 'darker' picture, such as happens when I do the same with a composite video output? Or is the Svideo signal more 'robust'?

cheers
