I was a very early adapter to home theater and whole house audio but I haven't kept up with developments. I'm finally ready to upgrade and update, but I have some questions.Can someone explain the difference between the normal video outs and "component video" outputs on DVD players?
Also; I may find it desirable to locate a DVD player away from my receiver, is it advisable or possible to distribute a digital signal over a 75 foot distance?
Any assistance is really appreciated,
Mike
Follow Ups:
... but DVD does not have the RF out found on videorecorders.The other 3 are -
1. Composite - a mix of all video signal and the one most video equipment caters for.
2. S-video - a mild improvement on composite with a splitting of the video signal. Of no use unless the recording or player has processed the video into the requisite components and the TV can accommodate it. Now less used & did not gain much acceptance for tape recorders.
3. Component - splits the video signal into 3 components, Y (yellow), Cr (red), Cb (blue) with synchronisation for the 3 on one of these (I forget which). The TV or projector must have corresponding inputs. This can yield a stunning picture with good software and is a MUST if you are keen on good quality.
As for a 75 foot length, check with a technician but I'm tipping that it would be OK with good quality commercial cable. No need for esoteric, expensive cables. We have about 25 ft between our processor & projector and the picture is fine.

Pure RGB is also common on European market equipment...moreso than the component system popular in the US....
