Does one HDMI cable from your tv to your cable set top box handle both the video and the audio or do you still need two separate cables like you would using component cables?

HDMI cables carry both video and audio. You only need one.

How do you plug in an audio into a plasma?
Depends on what you mean by audio, if you mean audio as in the 3 cables that connect into your tv (i.e red, yellow and white) then attach the red and the white (as they both control stereo sound) If you are on about hd cables then attach the blue and green cables into the appropriate sockets in the back of the plasma screen. If you are on about audio hi-fi or audio system then use the twin cable and plug both ends into their appropriate sockets Jackson, =D
What is the yellow red and white plugs on a tv called?
Those are audio-video cables, also called AV cables. Two audio plugs, 1 video. The plugs themselves don't have a special name.
Does s video cables carry audio signals?
No. They only carry separated color signals.
Which device-model can de used to be able to communicate between two different halls of 100m apart to achieve video linkage audio linkage and computer data transfer?
A simple solution would be the use of separate video, audio and data cables, each dedicated to one function. A more effective solution would use IP to carry audio, video and data on a single network cable. At each end, equipment will be required to insert and extract video and audio signals.
What is a Component video socket?
Component video is one of the high-end video interfaces offered on audiovisual equipment today. It supersedes composite video and S-Video by providing greater signal clarity than either, resulting in better picture quality. The component video interface consists of three RCA or coaxial jacks, one green, one red and one blue, requiring three cables. Component video carries visual data only. Audio cables are still required. Like composite and S-Video, component video is an analog interface, but its three cables better preserve the various elements of the video source signal. These elements are the Y signal, which carries brightness or contrast values, and the C signal, which carries red and blue or color data. Green values are parsed by a deductive process from reading all three streams. Therefore, component video is sometimes referred to as "RGB" for red, green, blue. The component video interface is marked either Y Pr Pb or Y Cr Cb. There is some misunderstanding among technophiles as to the difference between component video marked Y Pr Pb versus Y Cr Cb, with some claiming the latter is digital while the former is analog. Experts point out that both designations mean the same thing on consumer level equipment, and both are analog. There is a digital variety of Y Cr Cb, but it is not used in consumer level products. 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 component video 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 component video 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. If results are unsatisfactory using standard cables, a cable upgrade might make a difference.
Where can one purchase audio video component cables?
One can purchase audio video component cables from any store that sells electronics such as Best Buy, Future Shop, Wal-Mart, Target, Kmart, Krazy Kiley's, or Visions Electronics.
What is better for a TV hookup composite cable or component cable?
Component caries a better picture but you will need 2 extra cables for the audio.
What are those cords called ..The colored ones that you connect to your television for video and audio to work?
They can be called A/V cables and ones for HDTV are called component video cables. They all have RCA type plugs and the yellow is video and the red and white are audio on A/V cables. Component Video cable have two additional cables for HD Video signal besides the yellow one.
What are the different types of audio cables and how do they differ?
There are speaker cables, unbalanced analog cables, balanced analog cables, coaxial digital audio cables and optical audio cables.
What cables give the best picture quality for a GamecubeAre expensive cables better than the ones that come with the console?
The best picture quality from the Gamecube is obtained by using component cables versus the standard A/V cables. Component cables which are more expansive due provide better picture quality and audio output than the included A/V cables.
Does s-video have audio signal?
S-video is an interface standard for video signals only. It used two cables, one for a black and white image and the other for the color information. Audio needs to be routed on separate cables.
Are HDMI satellite receivers support HD?
For DISH Network receivers, the HDMI cables provide the highest quality video and audio and then component cables, which gives you HD quality if you have HD programming.
Do you connect the PC to stereo component cables into the headphone port or microphone port of your PC?
Headphone, because audio is going OUT (mic is giong IN).
What USB cables work on psp?
A Sony PSP component video cable is needed. It connects the A/V output on the PSP to an RCA Component video and analog audio on a TV.
Will a PS3 work with a standard definition television?
The PS3 will work on any TV that can connect by PS3 A/V cables or any of the optional PS3 Audio Video connection cables (component, S video, HDMI)
What colors are the audio cables for stereo to DVD?
They are red and white, or red and black for analog audio. Digital cables can be any color, as can HDMI cables.
Component Cable?
Component cables do not carry audio signals. However, you will find that they are bundled with audio cables most of the time. These are usually cheap products, varying from about 5 to 10 dollars. Don't be fooled by "gold plated" or any metal plated cables, because they all work the same, without loss of quality for cheaper ones.
