DVD outputs, best picture


Which outputs from the DVD player to the television provide the best picture?

My choices are:

Component Video

S-Video

Thanks

Has anybody out there done comparisons between HDMI and Component.

I've read threads that the PQ is pretty close - this was done using HD monitors.
"Doug":

What would I do in that situation is plug my DVD Player into my TV using the Component Video inputs (best picture...... BY A WIDE MARGIN...... until HDMI emerged) and use the coaxial outputs to output the audio from the DVD Player itself to the sound system.

Between S-Video and Component Video, Component Video wins out everytime.......

Good Luck.......

Thanks for the input.

I think there may be another issue though. I have to check this evening. The references I have seen indicate that component video is three cables. I seem to recall from looking at the back of the TV and the back of the DVD player that I have five cables.

Could this be correct or do I have something else going on?
five cables
component blue red yellow or blue red green
and audio left and right
I looked at both the tv and dvd player.

On the tv they are labeled Y, Pb and Pr.

On the dvd they are labeled Y, Cb/Pb and Cr/Pr.

Does it make a difference ragearding how the dvd are labeled with ragards to the Cb/Pb and Cr/Pr? Do I have to select something so that they feed the Pb and Pr to match the tv?
