IMPORTANT: - TV needs to be capable of displaying NTSC or 480p, due to the way the PSP is designed. PAL is the standard in NZ, but many NZ TVs also support NTSC. - the oldest PSPs don't support TV out - Not sure if it will fit the 'PSP GO'(this is a very different model, it doesn't use UMD disks & looks very different to normal PSPs)
PSP-2000 series (example: PSP-2001PB) = movies/videos are only viewable using the plain AV connection, games are only viewable using Component video connection(must be progressive/480p apparently). You can use a 'homebrew'(unlicensed) firmware that allows you to use either connection(with either progressive/480p or interlaced) however.
PSP-3000 series (example: PSP-3002PB) = can use either Component video or Composite Video(can plug into almost all TVs) to view both games & movies/videos.
Brand new PSP Component Video & AV cable to connect your PSP to TV/Projector/stereo/receiver etc.
Cable has PSP plug at one end; Component Video plugs, plain / composite video plug, stereo audio plugs at other end.
COMPONENT VIDEO / HDTV: Component cables provide excellent picture quality. Component video carries the signal in 3 wires = Y(luminance),Pr & Pb(colour information), which improves picture quality due to several technical reasons. Component video inputs on TVs are sometimes labelled simply 'DVD', see photo for an example of Component video sockets(order of colours is not important) Component Video from PSP also supports HDTV at 480p, which is progressive scan NTSC. Almost all HDTVs should support this.
COMPOSITE VIDEO: Composite video is the most common video standard, the vast majority of TVs have RCA sockets to match plug on this cable. Component is less common, but gives a better picture(see info above). Composite video combines all of the signal, resulting in image degradation.
Cable length: approximately 2.5m
