Difference between red, yellow, green, blue, and black
Answers
Explanation:
can you rephrase the question
Answer:
The blue, green, and red are component video and carry an analog video signal that is broken into 3 separate “components” One luma (black and white) signal on the green wire, and 2 chroma (color) on the red and blue wires. This allows for much better color separation than what you get on an composite cable which is what you have with just a single yellow cable that is transmitting the chroma and luma on just one cable. Also component video is capable of displaying a true HD signal up to 1080i, as well as progressive scanning for anything below 1080. The yellow composite cable can only output a 480i signal. However if your using a VCR expect a much lower quality. Regardless of the type of video signal you are using composite and component do not carry any type of sound. That is why you still need the red and white for the audio component.
Keep in mind these are just cables and the cables don’t know what color they are. I’ve had many situations where I needed a set of component (red,blue,green) cables and all I have is a set of composite (red, white, yellow) So I’ll plug the yellow into the green, the white in to the blue and the red into the red and the system works just fine. If you wanted to mix them up differently it’s all up to you as long as the matching output and input are connected with the same cable.
