What's the voltage range in video signals?

[Logistics]

Such as over RCA cables, whether it be composite or component, S-Video, whatever, what is the voltage range of a video signal. I ask this so I know what the max voltage would have to be on capacitors in video output stages.

1Vpp or less.

yes. very small and very high impendance and terminated with 75ohms usually as well in some cases.

Thanks guys! So the caps do have to be able to support high-frequency as well, correct? I remember reading a white-paper on an s-video filter that talked about how these days electrolytics were more than capable of this application. Although, it sounds like polymers are an even better choice; perhaps that even being what they were referring to. Any other suggestions for capacitors in video-out stages?

composit and s-video go up to 5mhz.
component dunno, check wikipedia etc.
