HDMI (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) - It is the first
and only industry-supported, uncompressed, all-digital
audio/video interface. HDMI provides an interface between
any audio/video source, such as a set-top box, DVD player,
or A/V receiver and an audio and/or video monitor, such as
a digital television (DTV), over a single cable.

RGB PC (VGA) – This video input has separate red, green
and blue color components. The signal carries horizontal
and vertical sync information on the green signal. This is
most commonly used for PC input.

Green
Component - The video signal is separated into three
signals, one containing the black-and-white information and
the other two containing the color information. This
enhancement over S-Video takes advantage of the superior
picture provided by progressive scan DVD players and
HDTV formats.

and

S-Video (AV) - The video signal is separated into two
signals, one containing the black-and-white information and
the other containing the color information. Separating the
color in this way avoids ‘cross color’ effects where closely
spaced black and white lines are erroneously displayed in
color. It also enables text to be displayed more sharply.
Composite (AV) - The complete video signal is carried
through this single pin connector. This is the most
commonly used video connection.
