Basicaly s-video signal works with 2 signals: Luminance and chrominance.
The luminance you can use the same monochrome driver you are used to, 2
transistors tied on Y output from 6847. But the chrominance you get from
1347 pin 8. A 300 Ohm resistor is needed to reduce the vertical lines. It
worked with 2 monitors an a s-video / vga converter I have here.
Check the video how to get artifact colors from it.
Didn't test on coco2, dunno if works since the 1372 is connected different
there.
