Japanese term
S映像端子

From a user interface evaluation report on a TV.
Screen shot:
ビデオ1出力の設定
接続機器設定
オートS映像(S映像端子の入力を優先する)
I found a description in Japanese of what a S映像端子 is:
http://kw.allabout.co.jp/glossary/g_digital/w000089.htm
I am just not sure what this should be in English, because I didn't find many matches on Google for "separate imaging" or "separate image" or "s-image", etc.
Thank you.

S-Video Connector/Socket
Actually, I agree with Kathy and think that S映像 and Sビデオ are the same thing, just a matter of preferring to use existing Japanese words or katakana for new jargons.
Anyway if Sony says it's the same thing I'll go with them:

I believe 端子 can mean either the cable pin or the socket, so it really depends on the context.

Actually, if I could, I'd lower my conf. level from 2 to 1.
S-ビデオ and S-映像 terminals seem to be 2 different things. (Duh!)
However, I won't hide this answer because sometimes wrong answers help the Asker to make a more informed decision... (-:

: As a North American, I prefer "jack" to 直訳っぽい "terminal", but why not finesse the issue with "S video input"?
