A single cable carrying video will be carrying a composite video signal. This signal has brightness and two color signals encoded into a single signal. To generate a component signal (YPbPr)a video decoder is required. They are available from many sources from low cost domestic units to stunningly expensive broadcast models. The better the decoder, the better the resulting image. It is very important to understand that a composite signal has suffered losses because of the encoding. Decoding the signal to component does not restore that quality. Component interfaces can handle high definition as well as standard definition signals. Decoding a composite signal will result in a standard definition signal. Connecting it to a high definition input will not result in a high definition signal. Normally, the only reason to decode the signal to component is to interface to a device that only accepts component signals.
Not generally no. There would be no point. The easiest is to convert the standard yellow video out to coax with an RF modulator
I dont believe it is. YBbPr is capable of outputting High definition (1080) where as S-video is Standard Definition
As rf modulators are usually mains powered convention says the standard cabling is easier to get
S-video is a two wire interface while ypbbr is a three wire interface. Therefore, an S-video cable cannot be used for any component signals. S-video supports only standard definition, that is, PAL or NTSC color encoding. Component signals (ypbbr) support both standard definition and high definition.
RGB, YPbPr is characterized by having three RCA plugs at each end.
Coaxial adapters for YPBPR cable can be found at most Radio Shack stores. This type of cable in VGA and Audio to HDMI conversions.?æ
Nintendo released a component (YPbPr) cable when the GameCube launched, but quickly stopped supporting it. Newer consoles don't have the "Digital A/V Out" port at all. If you have one of the original models with that port, you can try to track down the component video cable, although they tend to be rather expensive since there weren't many made. There are no cheaper, third-party alternatives for this cable. To when connecting the system to your TV, you will also need the original composite (yellow/red/white) cable for the RL audio, since the component cable does not have its own audio plugs. There will be no lag if the system is connected to the TV with these cables.
S-Video is a type of composite video signal. The 4 pins are Chrominance, Luminance, and 2 grounds. Your standard composite video cable combines Chrominance and Luminance into one signal, which is then separated again by the TV. An S-video cable removes this step. The "y, pB, pR" cable set is known as "component" video. this cable goes one step further than S-Video, breaking down the Chrominance signal to individual colors, using Red (pR), Blue (pB) and Luminance (y). The TV then uses additive and subtractive methods to determine Green.
They are both color space video but PrPbY is analog video and CrCbY is digital video.TriviaConventionally the Y is first followed by b then r, as in YPbPr which has led to the wires being known as 'yipper' lines/cables.
Y Pb Pr is a form of component video with three signals. Y is the brightness signal while Pb and Pr each carry color information. All three are required to produce a full color image and they do not carry audio. Audio will usually require a further two connectors for stereo audio.
Interlaced YUV will only display lines 1 3 5 etc. then go to lines 2 4 6... in the next screen refresh cycle of 50 or 60 times per second depending where you live in the world. Progressive will display all the lines at once in every cycle, so effectively twice as much info onscreen in any one cycle. For your purposes YPbPr is the same as YUV. Technically YUV is a type of colour gamut, or colour space standard to ensure colours match from one device to the next. YPbPr is an analog connection using this colour space standard and uses three cables (red, blue & green) just for the picture. YCbCr is a digital version of this. Both are commonly called Component. For the average home TV viewer these terms are all interchangeable - YUV, YPbPr and YCbCr. Even the sales assistant is unlikely to have a clue there is a difference. It is chips with faster clock cycles and processing power that have helped us attain this point. The newer players and TVs allow even more lines on-screen than the original Standard Definition (SD) TV lines of 576 (PAL) or 480 (NTSC). A DVD is however only SDTV resolution. To get more definition onscreen you need to be receiving an HDTV (1280x720) signal normally arriving via satellite dish (DVB-S), a FullHDTV (1920x1080) signal from a ground transmitter (DVB-T), or a Blu-ray Disc player (1080). Cable TV (DVB-C) can be in almost any resolution as it is encoded to suit the bandwidth available and often the resolution is traded off for the number of channels the station want to make available.

Yes you can, but the cable isn't really right for video signals. Even the composite video signal that is normally carried by one of the three cables suffers over a long length. The best thing to do is to plug it in and try it. If vertical edges on the image appear slightly smeared, it may well be down to the cable and a new cable is called for. Have no worries - you won't damage anything by using the cable. The right cable to use, if you have a choice is 75 ohm coax. RG59 and URM70 cables will do the job although there are many others with higher spec (and price) that you can choose from. If you have to buy a pre-terminated cable, then choose the fattest cable you can find. It's not a scientific way of choosing the cable, but the diameter is normally an indicator of the quality of cable.
