[question] Connectors & supported resolution

[masterpingouin]

I heard somewhere that some connectors (composite, s-vidéo, yuv, dvi, hdmi) have a limited resolution support.

Here's a list of the most popular connectors with
with their (supposed) maximum resolution (tell me if i'm wrong) :

Composite : 380i (maybe 220i, but it seems to be a small value...)
SVideo : 400i
YUV : 480i
HDMI : 1080i
DVI : 2400I

Thanks for your help guys.

For analog standards do you mean the maximum digital resolution you can capture from a maximum quality analog signal or do you mean typical resolution values from typical consumer sources? For analog, "studio" quality is near double what we see at home.


Analog:

Composite PAL or NTSC:
------------------------------
VHS: ~352x480/576i
Studio: ~800x480/576i

S-Video: PAL or NTSC
------------------------------
S-VHS: ~450x480/576i
Studio: ~800x480/576i

YUV : 720x480i, 720x576i, 1280x720p, 1920x1080i plus 1080p in studio
VGA: Computer "Vesa" resolutions.

Digital:

DVI-D: 480i, 576i, 720p, 1080i plus all the computer "Vesa" resolutions
HDMI : 480i, 576i, 720p, 1080i, 1080p
Serial Digital: 480i, 576i, 720p, 1080i, 1080p, 2kx4k, 4kx4k

Resolution is only one measure of video picture quality. Signal to noise and bit depth are also important.
