I have what I think is a simple question, but can't find it in a search.
Which is better: component video or the 15 pin RGB?
Even though many of the pins are dead, or are simply grounds, I notice that the RGB breaks the signal down into more components. In addition to rgb, it also seems to separately communicate HD/CSYNC and VD.
If RGB is better, will any SVGA cable suffice?
The reason this matters is that I have a Sony Sat HD-200 and the component video picture to my Panasonic PT-60LC13 is poor. The Sony is scaling it to the TV's native 720p. But I don't think it's the Sony's fault, because the Sony looked better when I was using a Hitachi CRT. So I thought I would try a different input. Since the DVI input is already occupied, the RGB is my only alternative.
Also, someone here posted that it is possible to convert a DVI to RGB. Guess that means RBG is digital. Any benefit to using the DVI output from the Sony and using a converter for the TV's RGB input?
