If you take a video source outputting component video and use component cables but connect it to a display source that uses composite connections what's the highest display resolution you can get?

Component video is carried on three wires, normally referred to as YUV or Y, Pb, Pr. The Y component carries the luminance information - the brightness. The other two carry color information.
Connecting a component signal to a composite input will be difficult as composite uses a single connector that carries brightness and color signals on the same wire. If you connect the Y of the component signal to the composite input, you will see a monochrome image.
With a very, very few exceptions, analog component video is limited to standard resolution, so the highest will be 480 line (North American) or 576 line (European). Composite connections handle only standard definition and there is no composite standard for HD video.

What are composite video inputs on HDTV?
Composite Video connections are unable to transmit a HD signal. They are on HDTV's for the purpose of connecting older sources, think VCR, that do not have the newer connections like HDMI or component cables.
How would you connect a PlayStation to a 3D projector which only has VGA and composite input?
Playstations all have a composite output, whether it is a PS1, PS2 or PS3. You will only get a standard definition display with this interface but unfortunately, there is no direct way to use other outputs. The PS3 has an optional component video cable which is capable of 1080p resolution. Most projectors are supplied with a component/VGA adapter that uses the VGA input port but accepts composite signals. Depending on the resolution of the LCD panel, you may only be able to use a 720p resolution with this projector. By obtaining an HDMI to VGA converter or an analog HD component to VGA converter you will be able to obtain a higher resolution up to 1080 line if your projector supports that resolution. You will not be able to use the 3D Blu-Ray features of the PS3 with this projector, as the PS3 requires an HDMI connection for this.

How do you hook up a HD brighthouse cable box to a HD tv?
Several different ways.. First you can buy a HDMI cable( which is expensive) that cable is the most simplest. The red, white and yellow on the HD box is the composite connection .

You can use the red and white audio connections from composite or component . To keep things simple use the output from the HD box to the input of your TV.

Yes, assuming your DVD player and TV have the hookups, you could use any one of those.
If your tv does not have a HDMI socket will you be able to receive hdtv?
Yes. HDTV signal can be used through HDMI, use the Component connections (not to be confused with composite) if your set has it, if not, then s-video and video would all be better than Coaxial cable.
