I've been switching out my AV multi out between composite and S-video cables while the power is on. Is this harmful?

Just wondering if I'm potentially damaging anything, if there's electricity or power being transferred between the connections.
I've been doing this a lot (in one night, so far) to compare the difference in composite and s-video. The difference is so subtle, so I'm going back and forth like a maniac just to try and find the difference, also while trying to understand why composite looks better most of the time.
