Which is the best output to use?

Hi,

I have a Denon DVD-F100 as part of a Denon SCAVF-100 System, the dvd player has various outputs.

Video

Composite Video (yellow RCA)
Scart
Component
S-Video

Audio

Digital coaxial (orange)
Toslink

Stereo RCA

I plan on putting this on a Panasonic G10 full HD 50" plasma until I can get around to buying a PS3 for blu ray playback, which video output would give me the best SD playback of my DVDs.

Cheers for any help.

Sean

The only way to go is component then s-video then scart and the one to avoid lol is Composite, As far as audio goes there is little differance between Digital coaxial (orange) And Toslink

Think I found my answer, had to search for different stuff, like it was the year 2000 all over again lol

Component Vs RGB (Scart?) Vs Svideo Vs Composite

Thanks for the swift reply and you confirmed what I read

also good as the denon system has inputs for both digital coaxial and toslink that are switchable so i'll be using the toslink for my xbox 360 then YAY!
