After many long nights pulling my hair out and at the virtue of quiting. I finally got my Nvidia Geforce 9500 GT TV-out via the s-video output working!
I post here my /etc/X11/xorg.conf. Hopefully I can help someone with it:
(Please change setting: Option "TVStandard" according your country. See this page: https://help.ubuntu.com/community/NvidiaTVOut on the bottom)
This morning I booted my XBMC again: you won't believe it. The dreaded black and white screen. Aaarrgh! In hind sight it was too easy; the s-video connector got a little bit loose. Pfiew!
