OK, Now I am curious!
The optical TOSLINK is for audio only right?
And just when I thought I had it all straight!
I am now confused with all the cables. (coaxial, composite, S-video, componet, DVI, RCA(red&white), optical toslink) did I leave any out?
My understanding is: (correct me if I am wrong)
coaxial.....................as good as composit??..................video & audio
composite.................poor quality................................video
S-video....................better quality than composite.........video
component................better quality than S-video............video
DVI..........................Best quality.................................video??
RCA(red & white)........good quality................................audio
Optical TOSLINK.........better than standard RCA??............audio
I describe what cable, the quality, and what signal it caries. "??" indicate I am realy not sure!
Is this correct?
What determines if a cable is digital or analog? Are all cables digital? Is it the source, that sends the signal to the cable, that determines if it is digital? My coaxial cable caries the audio and video signal into my house from my cable company or satalite dish, in either digital or analog, depending on my subsciption, right?
UUUUUUGGGGG my head hurts!
can anybody help clear things up?
