Hi, sorry, but the answer isn't quite as simple as pin-to-pin wiring. The s-video has separate luminance and chrominance signals, while the 'rca' connector is (technically) a composite video signal. You need a convertor to go from one to the other. There are lots of suppliers for this type of device. One suggestion: www.milestek.com, partno 90-10126 lists for $39.00 in their current catalog; I'm sure there are others...good luck
