component video: Component video is a general term used to describe a video signal that has been broken down into two or more parts. These components can affect colors and brightness. So will at S-Video breaks down the image into colors and brightness RGB analogously, however, the image is broken down into three monochrome sub-images.
Theoretically, connection variants such as VGA on computers or SCART component video connections in home cinema, since they include an RGBSignal transfer. However, component video is commonly understood as 3 Cinch-Male split into YPbPr or YcbcrIt Connection only transmits video data. Due to the available transmission capacity, this component video connection enables resolutions of up to 1080p to transmit, but due to copy protection measures it is often no longer permitted to transport video signals in such high quality unprotected, which is why higher HD resolutions are used exclusively HDMI may use.
YPbPr is the connection for analogue transmission. Y stands for the brightness signal, Pb for the color signal that characterizes the deviation from blue to gray and Pr for the signal that represents the deviation from red to gray. At the same time, a synchronization signal for merging the image is transmitted with the brightness signal.
YCbCr is the designation when the image is transmitted digitally. As in the analogue model, Y stands for the brightness, Cb for the blue difference and Cr for the red difference. Both models can also be calculated from the RGB model.
