HDMI moniter and audio?

Question

hi im buying a lg24" beyond full hd moniter that im going to hook up my ps3 to.

now it has RCA/RGB (yellow white and red) i think rgb is red white and yellow....

it has component without the audio (if i used this i could just plug the audio into the speaker jack-rca converter on my X-540 speakers.

it also has hdmi which carries sound and picture but i dont think the moniter has its own speakers.

So could i just plug in the rca cable AND hdmi in back of my ps3, then plug the hdmi in the moniter an then the red and white auido cables directly into my speakers.

would that work?

if not how do i get sound?

my last question is if both COMPONENT and HDMI support 1080p, is hdmi actually any better than component???

Answer 1

First...RGB = red green blue and is for the three primery colour inputs. a lot of dvd's have them.

Yellow , red , white = picture,  Rt sound ,Lft sound

One thing to remember is that there is a slight difference in resistance to all these cables.

If the ps3 has a HDMI plug .Use it .then stick the red and white into whatever you use for sound.

So yes is answere just dont be sticking anything in the red green blue

Answer 2

The component and HDMI cables do the same thing, The component cables are more heavy duty than the HDMI cables, if you use the HDMI cable, be careful not to damage the cable, I personally use the thicker component cable for my TV/ high def satellite receiver. As for the hook-up of the speakers, the only thing I can tell you is try and see. Yellow is for video and the red and white are for audio

Answer 3

No, that won't work.

You can only get digital or analog at one time.

You have to change the settings on the PS3 to do this.

And Component cables only support content up to 1080i.  Only HDMI supports up to 1080p.

Answer 4

Use HDMI, which is a digital-to-digital connection between your monitor and game machine. Component Video requires conversion to analog and then back to digital. It will be slower, maybe noticeably. On a bigger monitor, the picture wouldn't be as good.

Use HDMI and connect your red/white cables to the rca converter on your X-540 speakers.

For future reference:

HDMI: digital video/audio interface with HDCP copy protection and SDID data included

Component Video: (Yprpb) analog video interface where:

Green =  brightness, horizontal sinc, vertical sinc.

Blue = blue chromanance (color)

Red = red chromanance (color)

(green is calculated by the monitor)

Component Video: (Ycrcb) digital video interface where:

Green =  brightness, horizontal sinc, vertical sinc.

Blue = blue chromanance (color)

Red = red chromanance (color)

(green is calculated by the monitor)

RGB = analog video interface where:

G = green, horizontal sinc, vertical sinc

R = red

B = blue

RGBHV is all five aspects of video where:

G = green

R = red

B = blue

H = horizontal sinc

V = vertical sinc

RCA audio/video set where:

Yellow = all parts necessary to deliver low definition color video

Red = right channel audio

White = left channel audio

In every case, there are only 5 parts to video: red, green, blue, h sinc and v sinc. There is a reason green is omitted sometimes. To make TV white (6504 Kelvin) you need 11% blue, 30% red and 59% green. Green takes the most bandwidth. By not sending the green, bandwidth requirements are reduced. It's easy math to calculate when a signal of 100% tells you what percent 4 of the 5 components are, to calculate the fifth.
