HDMI or Component: Which is best?

You have just purchased a new HDTV, complete with HDMI connector and I'm happy
He had the foresight of a DVD player with HDMI interface a while ago to buy
You could not use HDMI even if at that time.

So you can ignore the component outputs and inputs and an HDMI cable
between the two favorite pieces home theater set. After all, HDMI, and all
digital, is bound to be better than component, is not it?

Hdmi

Well, no, actually. Not necessarily. E 'true that a DVD signal convering analog
Send via component video and power cycle the digital TV
lead to a slight deterioration of image quality. And it is true that HDMI removes this
Output. However, the deterioration of the signal component of almost
imperceptable and HDMI do not imagine a little 'problems.

First, even if the DVD video "up-conversion" from a native 420p resolution
Resolution of HDTV (720por 1080i), the signal is still considered a "new timed" in the
Television before being displayed. Some experts suggest that these re-clocking
represents more than artifacts of the process of digital-analog-digital
Conversion. And I make the quality of the processor in the DVD player, the "up-
conversion "is important, if not height, which could adversely affect
The impact on image quality.

Secondly, all devices with HDMI (or DVI for that matter) connectionsmust
Support anti-piracy measure as HDCP (High Bandwidth Digital Content known
Protection). This takes the form of a code that is embedded in digital video
When his signal sent by a reader of content, such as a DVD player and must be de-
HDTV or HD projector encoded. This increases the pressure on the TV screen
Processor without any benefit to the quality of the images, and so could potentially cause
slight loss in image quality.

With componentVideo connectors means that no anti-piracy protection
necessary.

Assuming that does not mean anything to avoid HDMI. Unfortunately this means that
should not assume that HDMI will be better than component. The
only way to find out what is best for your device, try both to see and what
They prefer.
