This is RCA. Wasn’t composite early HD with RBG-RW?

    You're thinking of component. The two are (or were) frequently mixed up.

    RCA is just the connector, composite video is all the video signal chucked into one cable - component video splits it out into the colour components (getting the signal to that early HD level)

    This is RCA (the left / right audio) and composite video.

    This meme would have been better with component video and TOSLINK or S-Video and toslink.

    I don't see how this meme would be better with an audio cable that doesn't have a separate physical signal path for left and right channels. The Van Gogh panel wouldn't make any sense.
