Component video is sent through three cables: two color shade (chrominance)
signals and one brightness (luminance) signal. Component video achieves greater
color accuracy than composite video or S-VIDEO by splitting chrominance into
two separate portions.
Composite video is sent through a single cable. Composite video combines the
color shade (chrominance) and brightness (luminance) information into one video
signal.
S-VIDEO requires a single cable, which carries the brightness (luminance) and
color (chrominance) signals of the picture separately. S-VIDEO provides better
resolution than composite video, which carries the signals together.
SCART connectors used with many European video equipments is designed to
carry composite video and RGB video signals. If the equipment which outputs
picture outputs RGB-signal, it will output RGB signal from the RGB pins and a
complete composite video signal at the same time.
Basically is the same as Full Scart in function but does not support RGB Video
signals.
