Video information is carried in a single signal combining color and brightness information into the one signal. Composite video is transferred between video devices using a single interconnect cable with an RCA connector. omposite video contrasts to S-Video, which separates the color and brightness information into two separate signals. S-Video (also known as Y/C-Video) transfers chrominance (color portion of video signal denoted C) and luminance (brightness portion of the video signal denoted Y) information separately resulting in a higher picture quality than composite video. Since composite video joins the chrominance and luminance signals together into one, the two must be divided out from each other at the television by a comb filter. This process results in some distortion and picture degradation.
