Which video signal is the best quality – Composite, S-Video, RGB Scart or Component ?
In order of quality, Component is the highest quality followed by RGB Scart, S-Video then Composite. The three signal types are explained below: Component A Component Video cable separates the information, with the picture’s luminance information, red colour-difference information, and blue colour-difference information on three separate conductors. Component Video provides better colour resolution than S-Video. It also has wider bandwidth, which is necessary to deliver high-quality video from DVD players, digital satellite systems, and HDTVs. Component can also carry high definition progressive scan signals. RGB Scart RGB is the best video signal you can send over a fully wired 21 pin scart cable. Uses 3 separate signals (red, green, blue) to send the video. S-Video An S-Video cable carries the picture’s brightness information and colour information separately on two conductors. This improves brightness and colour accuracy over Composite Video. S-video signals are also sometimes refer
