- Ypbpr vs rgb reddit. If I have a Retrotink 5X Pro or an OSSC, outputting HDMI to a modern TV, which cable's signal will look best? For example, an SNES RGB Scart cable made by Retro Gaming Cables, vs. YPbPr vs RGB vs Raw First I have no idea why Sony calls it YPbPr since "YPbPr" is the analog version of YCbCr. SCART is the most common medium of sending an RGB signal, but it lacks the versatility of component in that it cannot deliver HD video, due to not natively supporting the same color space as component (YPbPr), which is capable of carrying a high-def signal, and in some cases a higher frequency RGB signal with a different form of sync. Y, the luma, is the overall brightness of the pixel, and it's a very close match for what the old black-and-white system would have sent. In either case YPbPr (or YCbCr) is a way of encoding the image from the sensor using RGB data. With a component cable it will need to be set to YPbPr unless you're doing something particularly unusual (in which case you should know what you need). Analog vs. RGB and Ypbpr component give similar results but do not carry the same signal. Something like this will not work If u are going to convert scart rgb to component, do not get one: I realize RGB and YPbPr look very similar (identical?), so this isn't so much a question about which is better. My question is about the technical differences with what's being output from the system - and what the TV is receiving - when using different cables. s53sn ajeja55k1 yww x1c d7c kflek hsf slvee9 fsak 9p86wj
