Blue cables designate one of the three wires for a component video cable connection. Along with the Red and Green wires, these three form a component video cable.
Nintendo released a component (YPbPr) cable when the GameCube launched, but quickly stopped supporting it. Newer consoles don't have the "Digital A/V Out" port at all. If you have one of the original models with that port, you can try to track down the component video cable, although they tend to be rather expensive since there weren't many made. There are no cheaper, third-party alternatives for this cable. To when connecting the system to your TV, you will also need the original composite (yellow/red/white) cable for the RL audio, since the component cable does not have its own audio plugs. There will be no lag if the system is connected to the TV with these cables.
It allows you to connect component cables into a HDMI connector/cable on the tv set.
You may also be able to use a component or S video cable depending on the devices
Composite video runs all of your video through one channel. This is typically a yellow tipped RCA cable - the kind you would hook up a VCR or DVD player with. Component runs three separate video lines that each carry one color, and then they combine in your tv. The colors are typically labeled Y Pr and Pb. To connect that you would need to run three RCA cables, or a triple RCA cable. Component offers a better, cleaner picture.
No, the S-cable is the weak link in your plan.
Sounds like a timing error either coming from the video source or in the TV's digital electronics. Could also be a defective cable or connector issue.
You will either need a composite(not component) cable or a HDMI cable. I think you can use S-Video but S-Video doesn't compare to HDMI or composite.
You will need a converter box. It isn't as simple as a cable to convert one to the other. There are many on the market, Google Component Video to VGA converter.
Check your cable. If you are using a universal component cable, and the switch on the cable is set to video, you will get only black and white on the Wii. Flip the switch to component and your problem may vanish - mine did.
A red-white-yellow (RWY) cable is designed for stereo audio and composite video. A red-green-blue cable is designed for component video on your DVD player. Most RWY cables will have the yellow cable noticeably thicker than the red and white. This is because there is extra shielding in the video cable to avoid interference. While short runs of RWY cable can be used for component video, the picture can suffer if there is electrical interference in the Red and White cables because of reduced shielding.
