Analog cables transmit their signals via waveforms, digital cables transmit their signals the same way a computer transmits data — through binary code that is decoded by the display device into a viewable picture. Because they travel via waveform, analog signals are susceptible to interference from radio waves and other electronic signals from nearby equipment. Analog signals also have less bandwidth than digital signals, which means increased compression that can negatively affect picture quality.
Although less noticeable with component than composite, signals transmitted via component cable will not be as clear as signals transmitted digitally via cables like HDMI and DVI. Multicom stocks the highest quality HDMI 2. While regular television signals, VHS tapes and laserdiscs all encode visual data using lesser quality composite video, DVDs use component video for encoding visual data.
A DVD player with component video outputs, connected to a television with comparable inputs, will provide a picture far superior than one using composite video connections. Component video is also a step up from S-Video in that it is a multi-scan technology, which means it can deliver the video stream in differing modes to accommodate various frame rates for progressive-scan or interlaced televisions.
Component video cables are available in different configurations. All three cables might be encased in a single sheath with triple tails at each end, or the cables might be bonded or ribboned together. Three single RCA or coaxial cables can also be used, but should be the same length and type. Increased cable quality, tips and shielding add to the cost, as will the length of the cables. Many people have numerous free cables around the house from purchasing past equipment, and some people opt to use these to connect component video.
Bear in mind that standard cables are color-coded red and white, so care must be taken to match the green, red and blue jacks with the same wire on both pieces of equipment. Cabling made for component video is color-coded green, red and blue for this reason. It is also usually of higher quality and might have better shielding coverage and lower impedance levels.
S video was made with color broadcasts in mind. With that in mind, let this article showcase just how superior component video is to S-video, which was originally devised in order to improve upon the video output of composite video and its white, yellow, and red jacks. Picture Quality The standard definition of i or i but cannot transmit analog HD signals at all Best quality for standard definition DVDs and resolutions like p, i, p, and p as well as transmitting analog HD video signals.
Color Bleed Some color bleed seen versus virtually no color bleed from composite Clear color bleed or reflections from nearby light sources comparable to HDMI. Graphics Clarity Decent clarity of images and movement for videogame 3D polygonal models on game consoles. Crisper images with clearer edges for videogame 3D polygonal models on game consoles Tips or Connectors S-video pins can be bent accidentally, making it a hassle to replace Makes use of three composite video cables colored green, blue, and red instead so you need to make sure the ends match up the labels.
The composite video was the only baseband video signal type supported on consumer electronics until the arrival of the S-video, which was then outdone by the component video and the HDMI format. Just as component video outdid the S-video dramatically in all aspects, so too did S-video outdo composite video by recording all picture info—which includes horizontal and vertical synchronization, brightness, and color—into a single signal.
Component video known to professionals as YPbPr features an aesthetically similar RCA jack format as a composite video, but it has three separate cables and signals to outdo the dual signal setup of S-video in every way possible. This video format is all about color difference and spitting out information a step further than S video. Component video uses three cables instead of the two cables of S video and the one coaxial of composite video.
The component also improves upon. It can even handle nonstandard resolutions as long as your display and source can support them. S-video cables are good enough and component video is a broadcast quality analog cable format that is only inferior to HDMI and its ability to showcase digital HD.
It separates info in three ways to vastly improve color definition and resolution to the point of HD picture quality if called for. S video was good for its time but it has become outdated as technology improved and resolutions rose. It was through the S-video that color started to be closer to reality compared to composite video which never handled color well , only for both to be outdone by the component video cable format.

Thread starter cokie69 Start date Apr 4, Hi Newbie here, not familiar with technical jargon nor concepts regarding "image", mind me. I've got an old multimedia disk with both, component and s-video connections, which I want to connect to an equally old Loewe plasma TV which offers component, s-video and SCART euro-connector capabilities. The TV specifications indicate the max resolution is x Which type of connection would offer me a better "image resolution"??
I am not so concern about "truer" colors but better overall image definition. Your thoughts are welcome. It gets confusing when labelling starts to mix up video formats with video socket types! The usual order of preference is 1. S-Video 5-pin Mini din.
