Best cable solution for TM 5200

[ukdave]

Hi
Just sold my SL45 reciever have now bought a Technomate 5200 super at the moment it is a scart to scart lead to tv the tv has component video sockets plus 2 x hdmi i want to use the component video from reciever to tv so should i get a component video cable from reciever to tv plus RCA audio cable for sound or should i buy a cable with hdmi on tv end and (5 x rca component video and audio) on reciever end would there be any difference in picture quality between the two cables.
The tv is full HD and upscales SD video to HD dont know if this has any bearing on the cable question just thought i had better mention it.
Anyone help please

YPbPr component is the best to use out of those available on the TM5200.

Also a component -> HDMI cable will not work unless the receiver specifically supports digital out through component, component is natively analogue and HDMI is natively digital so a direct cable will not suffice

Your best bet is using a 5 x RCA to 5 x RCA cable and using the component input of the TV

Thanks for the reply never thought about HDMI being digital but makes sense now will get 5 x RCA cable then
