Page 1 of Help!! Is my S-Video cable faulty??

I received an S-Video cable from Keene Electronics on Friday (19/01/01) and connected it between my AIWA 370 DVD and JVC TV (after changing the TV output setup to `S-Video` on the DVD). When I turn on the DVD and select the AV2 channel on my TV all I get is blue and green lines across the screen, I had tried a friends S-Video cable before hand and that worked without any problems. The only difference between the two cables as far as I can see is the one I have got has GOLD connectors each end, should that make any difference? or do you think I have just been sent a faulty cable and need to get a replacement?.

Thanks for any advice.

MJD.
