S-VHS or SVHS (Super VHS)
For S-VHS or SVHS (Super VHS) we have a term and definition in Television.
S-vhs Or Svhs (Super Vhs) (Television) 
A variation of the VHS videotape format where the luminance resolution is about 400 TV lines. (The color resolution is the same as regular VHS, about 32 lines.) S-VHS VCR's will play regular VHS tapes and can record in regular VHS format, but regular VHS VCR's will not play S-VHS format tapes. Because S-video (separated Y and C) cabling is originally used for S-VHS VCR's, the term S-VHS is sometimes mistakenly used when "S-video" was intended.
