The answer is YES, you can substitute Composite Video Cables with RCA cables for use in HDTV Technology.

I tried it, using 3 sets of audio RCA cables (red and white)
One for the Audio connections (red and white) and the other two for composite video connections. (red, blue, and green)

The following address shows the process and results, using a HD digital tuner with 1080i output on a HD ready TV.

Most modern televisions will offer you a series of connectivity options:
1) 75ohm standard antenna input
2) composite video - RCA jacks (yellow, red, white)
3) component video - RCA jacks (red, green, blue)
4) S-video - DIN connector
5) DVI
6) HDMI
The best connection is HDMI. The worst is 75 ohm coaxial cable. Numbers 1 and 2 on this list are not capable of passing HDTV at all.

If the DVD player doesn't have COMPONENT connectors, you will have to use a input on the TV that has RCA input connectors.
If your tv has RCA out, use that. If not, you could use an external digital cable tuner and connect that to your soundbar .
To use analog 3.5 mm jack RCA cables and the PS4 optical audio cable, you will need a DAC; then your Logitech speakers should work.
Yes and No.If I understand the question correctly, you want to connect your cable box to your HDTV via HDMI, your DVR via component cable (Red, Green and Blue RCA connectors), and your VCR via component cables. Your HDTV should accept various video inputs - HDMI, component, and composite (the yellow RCA connector). Most argue that the HDMI connection will provide the best quality video. Next in quality is component video. Last is composite video. Your cable box may or may not have an HDMI connection. If it does and you subcribe to HD channels from your cable provider, then definitely use HDMI to connect to the cable box. If you have another HDMI input available on your TV, then connect it to the DVR (if the DVR has the HDMI output). Your VCR will likely have to be connected via composite cable. It's a crappy signal but VCR don't provide a great signal to begin with. Most VCRs only offer a composite (at best) output, anyway.
For your PS3 connection you need WiFi or an ethernet cable that is connected to the internet. The HDMI cable only connects the PS3 to the HDTV and will not provide the internet connection.
If the TV is a HDTV and there are HDTV stations near by you won't need a converter box.
1.for video composite cable yellow use rca male to rca male video cable. or component (recommended if tv has this input) 3 pairs of rca male to rca male video called rgb cable. 2. for audio out use pair of rca male to rca male cable.
You will have to use RCA jacks for your VCR.In general you'll want to hook it up to an auxillary channel.The reason is that your VCR is only going to give you standard definition and you'll want to hook your HD TV up directly to an HD Sources.
Plug it into your TV with the cable that came with it or if you have a HDTV buy a HDMI cable and plug that into your HDTV and PS3.. Plug the power in and turn it on. You should see it on your TV screen and if not turn your TV to the same input you plugged the PS3 into. Owners of the 720P HDTVs or those without HDMI can buy PS3 component cables with 5 color coded connections that use RCA plugs for the HDTV inputs. Both the HDTV 1080p and 720 HDTV owners can connect with the A/V cable that came with the PS3, but then it will be standard 480i from your PS3
The blu-ray instruction manual usually includes instructions for connecting the blu-ray to the HDTV, as well as how to program the blu-ray and HDTV to work together. The manuals are your best source of instruction. If the manuals are missing, you can usually download them from the manufacturer's website. The HDTV has several input connectors. Connect your cable box to one input, using a compatible cable (usually included), most often an HDMI cable these days. Connect your blu-ray HDMI output to another HDMI input on the HDTV using another HDMI cable. Then use the HDTV remote control to select the desired input source. If you want to use a blu-ray with speakers for your sound system, you must connect an HDTV audio output to a blu-ray audio input. Depending on the particular HDTV and blu-ray, you may use an audio cable with RCA connectors, or a fiber optic digital cable. If the HDTV and blu-ray both support a feature called ARC, the same HDMI video cable can also carry the digital audio signal. Refer to the manuals for setting up the HDTV and blu-ray audio.
Use the component input.
its a cable that allows you to use a HDTV for your monitor. most of the time you need a good graphics card to use it.
No. You would need a coaxial (preferably video) cable to connect a cable box to a VCR, unless your cable box has RCA outputs, which most don't.
If the DVD player doesn't have COMPONENT connectors, you will have to use a input on the TV that has RCA input connectors.
Typical coax cable uses a different standard than RCA. You will need to use a converter box.
You can't. HDMI is digital. RCA is analog (component or composite).
Why would you want to, I just use it as a dildo.
