What`s the difference between Composite, Component, S-Video, and RGB?
Composite is the lowest common denominator; it allows all the component parts of the signal to be ‘squashed’ down a single wire in a combined (Composite) format, this is the lowest possible quality interconnection. Component is an output format found on most American players, It is similar in it’s make up to Europe’s RGB format, however very few displays sold in the UK support this method of connection so it is best ignored. On a Component compatible display is offers a picture comparable to RGB and is one of the best forms of interconnection.S-Video breaks down the signal into a number of component parts with signals for Chrominance and Luminance. This offers one of the better forms of interconnection.RGB, as its name suggests, breaks the signal down in to its Red, Green and Blue component parts. If your display and player support RGB then this should be the interconnection of choice.All the above formats are only for video transfer, Audio is normally either handled by a dedicated amp
