Why do I need a special Twisted Pair Cable for Computer Video Signal (VGA-XGA) transmission?

ALTINEX, Inc | Support
A standard CAT5 / CAT5e or CAT6 cable is made for computer network signal transmission where each twisted pair could be of different lengths. Using standard twisted pair cable could cause a color shift known as "skew." We recommend the Altinex No-skew Twisted Pair Cables, CB3150PV or CB5600PL, to minimize color shift (skew) on long cable runs.

How to convert between different video formats?

Kramer Electronics - Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
There are many video signal formats: Composite, Y/C, YUV (Y, R-Y, B-Y), RGB (S) analog and digital. Component analog video formats (YUV and RGB) are unmodulated signals, where the signal level directly represents the signal intensity, for example, 1 Volt of ???Y??? signal represents a maximal white level. Converting from YUV to RGB and vice versa is relatively simple, and needs only an accurate matrixing system.

What is the difference between video and audio signal distribution?

Kramer Electronics - Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Signal distribution techniques are mainly related to the signal bandwidth and level. Audio signals are far less prone to distribution problems if they have a large enough level. The audio signal has a bandwidth of 20-20000 Hz, and is not as sensitive to loading as is the video signal. The audio spectrum is defined in a relatively narrow range of frequencies and is, therefore, much easier to handle.

How can I convert the official PAL video to NTSC?

Neil Gaiman - Books & Short Stories
Well, I bought an Aiwa HV-MX1 off a dealer on the web new about four years ago for about $250, which plays and converts PAL to NTSC and vice versa, and love being able to play things that will simply never be shown or commercially available in NTSC. (And a thirty second hunt on google has multiformat VCRs available for under $200 these days). But as long as it's for your own use, I can't see why any conversion place should refuse to convert it.
