Various inputs question
There are many different inputs now available. In many applications, there are several choices. Are there differences in quality if everything else is equal?
I'm talking about: HDMI HD-SDI Component Analog HD DVI Feel free to add others. Help me understand this alphabet soup! Thanks |

HDMI and DVI are simply shape/pin differences, with the exception of the audio channel (DVI doesn't carry audio.) HDMI can be adapted to DVI with a cable or adapter.
