Modern A/V devices are sold without S-Video. == '''Component Video''' ==[[File:wiki-component-video.jpg]]Note: This connector is commonly found on DVD players. Although the most modern DVD players may also include HDMI, the composite type is typically used for DVD.''(analog, video only, very high video quality)''''(analog, video only, highest possible "analog" video quality)'' Used primarily for computer monitors and LCD flat-panel screens that display images from both traditional audio/video and computer video sources. It uses a 15-pin connector to carry packets of video information in a different format than that coming from other sources such as DVD players or cable boxes.== HDMI - High-Definition Multimedia Interface ==(D)igital (V)ideo (I)nterface is a multi-pin connection used for passing standard-definition and high-definition digital video signals. DVI-D - True Digital Video, is the standard for modern Personal Computer systems. This is the highest possible quality available for a modern PC or TV. It is capable of doing HDTV 1080p at a resolution of 1920x1080 and higher.''(digital, audio and video, highest available video quality)''HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is an audio/video interface for uncompressed, all-digital, connectivity that delivers true HD quality for consumer electronics. With 19 wires wrapped in a single cable that resembles a fat USB wire, HDMI is able to carry a bandwidth of 5 Gbps (gigabits per second). This is more than twice the bandwidth needed to transmit multi-channel audio and video.see also: [[Connector_Types_on_a_Standard_PC#DVI-D_Digital]]Wikipedia describes HDMI as "compact," however, with 19 wires wrapped in a single cord it is actually quite heavy and stiff, being somewhat difficult to work with in "in wall" applications, and limited in transmission range. The concept is primarily for simplicity so the consumer only has one cable to connect for all video color bands as well as hifi audio.== '''HDMI - High-Definition Multimedia Interface''' == ''(digital, audio and video, highest available video quality)''Unlike PC VGA, HDMI is all digital. HDMI has superior video quality when compared to Component Video, S-Video, and Composit. HDMI includes the audio as well as video, unlike the aforementioned video cable types.A newer technology called HDBaseT looks to replace HDMI, which will be a welcome improvement.{{:High Definition Multimedia Interface (HDMI)}}== Apple Composite ==The RGB (D-sub 15-pin) jack is found on some HDTV-ready TVs and HDTV tuner boxes, RGB connections are used for transferring video signals, including high-definition content. As implied by its name, RGB sends the red, green, and blue components of the video signal along separate paths.
