Whats the longest a video cable can be run?
#1
How long can a VGA lead or S-video lead be run before loss of signal and a amp is require
Does S-video have 75 ohm resistance just like co-axial cable and therefore be run 100 feet or so?
I need to connect my projector to either my pc or my dvd player or ps2. Where I want the projector to sit will require cable to run atleast 15 feet or so. What are my options.

15 feet will be fine, just do it. All video signals are (as far as I know) 75 Ohm, although this has nothing to do with the maximum distance they can run - it just determines a required characteristic of the cable. Use a cable of high enough quality and longer runs shouldn't be a problem.

I bought a 5m stereo phono lead, split it, joined one set of ends together with a male to male adapter and voila 10 m cable
Works fine. DVD quality is good.
What? Me! a skinflint. How dare you sir!
I intend to buy a better quality cable but just not got round to it yet.
