Is there any way to convert S-Video to Component?
My Tivo only has Composite and S-Video connections but my receiver only has Component and Composite connections. What would be the best way to get the best connection?

I know the receivers are for sound but I was going to use it as a filter for video sources and then have one output to the tv (which is only an old composite connection). But still, if I upgrade a TV I'd like to get the best picture from my Tivo possible.

If you can only connect them by using the common connectors, which is composite, then that is the only way. Unless you want to spend money on something like the Atlona Video S-video to Component Converter.

The gains are not worth the money IMHO.

Save your money for the TV upgrade.

Okay, that's what I figured, So I just have to make sure the new TV has an S-Video connection to run the video cable directly from the Tivo. Right?

Yup, but get one with component video input as well.
