Component video 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 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 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.
