DVI should be a lot better than an svideo to component.

this cable is kinda weird a normal svideo cable has 4 prongs this one has like 7 you ever see anything like that?

It's just a breakout cable. They probably sell different cables for composite, svideo and component to fit it.

If you have to ask, it probably doesn't matter. I'd avoid the extra ADC/DACs and go with DVI.

i just wanted to make sure i know dvi is way better than svideo just never came across this type of hook up.

Thanks
