... but DVD does not have the RF out found on videorecorders.The other 3 are -
1. Composite - a mix of all video signal and the one most video equipment caters for.
2. S-video - a mild improvement on composite with a splitting of the video signal. Of no use unless the recording or player has processed the video into the requisite components and the TV can accommodate it. Now less used & did not gain much acceptance for tape recorders.
3. Component - splits the video signal into 3 components, Y (yellow), Cr (red), Cb (blue) with synchronisation for the 3 on one of these (I forget which). The TV or projector must have corresponding inputs. This can yield a stunning picture with good software and is a MUST if you are keen on good quality.
As for a 75 foot length, check with a technician but I'm tipping that it would be OK with good quality commercial cable. No need for esoteric, expensive cables. We have about 25 ft between our processor & projector and the picture is fine.
