My understanding is that RCA and mini-din connectors are exclusive
because they allow either a S-VIDEO or COMPOSITE connection. Am I
right?

Different TV sets do it differently, but mine has "Input 1" and "Input
2" "channels". So if I want to see the S video input, I would turn to
the Input 1 "channel" in the channel list. This means I can have two
devices, such as an old VCR hooked up to the analog component RCA
connectors and a DVD player hooked up to the S Video and be able to
easily switch between them.

If you still have your manual, look in there.
