Do I need to change my PS2 system settings from RGB to the  Y-Pb-Pr setting to take advantage of an S-Video cable? I'm just trying to get the best video quality playing PS2 games on my 26" HDTV.

I would imagine it would as that is a component output and s video is a higher output like component. Just got an S video cable myself and I am toying around with it on my Sony Wago.

@sathingtonwaltz: RGB and YPbPr are only Component cable settings. The S-VHS cable doesn't use them, and you should almost never need to select the RGB mode unless you're using some kind of professional video monitor or are in a PAL region using a SCART connector.
