To transmit a video signal on a UHF or cable television channel

something more I need to do?

S-video is a component signal - it splits the chroma and luma. You're
going to have to reassemble them before you can modulate it on a RF
carrier, if you want a standard TV to receive it.

I don't think most amateur TV stations use a VSB lower-sideband filter.
They seem to work OK - though they're generally going for legibility, not
high picture quality!

The other suggestion, that you use a modulator from an old VCR, is a good
one. In America that'll be VHF instead of UHF.
