minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink1•edit-29 months ago IIRC, back in the day, there were even composite-to-vhf adapters I had something like that for my Nintendo 64. My TV only had an antenna plug, no composite. In Australia, we used these connectors even on very old TVs: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Belling-Lee_connector whereas the USA seems to mostly use BNC these days. I had a box with antenna in, TV out, and the red/yellow/white inputs. We called those “RCA” - is that the same thing as composite?
minus-square@[email protected]linkfedilink1•9 months agoYeah, composite & RCA are synonymous with eachother. IIRC it’s the difference between the connector name & cable name similar to rj-4 connector l/port vs cat-# cables.
