I'm working on a mod for a NON-NEO system. Looking at gamesx.com, I see that s-video is composed of Luminance and Chrominace.

I have the location of both ouputs, but the standard S-video pinout says I need ground(luma) and ground (chroma).

Is this a blended signal of Luma+ground and chroma+ground, or is it the separate ground wire for each? I don't want to fry anything.

Yeah, just connect those two pins to ground (0 Volts). You'll be fine.
