Not realy.
Try it by yourself: Capture the same Video at 704x480 and 352x480. Encode them without any resizing/filtering. Which one is the sharper one?

He is right. Max. Resolution of S-Video (NTSC) is arround 384x480. But you have to capture a higher resolution to get every horizontal Line (not Scan-Lines!). Horizontal Lines (VHS has 240, S-VHS up to 400) aren't Pixels and can't be handled like Pixels. To be correct: You have to Capture double the amount of Pixels than the Video-Type provides in (horizontal) Linies.
