I got a component cable so I could capture gameplay without relying on a DVD recorder, but recently found out that my capture box doesn't support the PS1 video output. Got it kind of working with GSM but not well enough to be usable at the moment. Anyway, the component cables were pretty cheap but when connected to the telly they look pixel perfect. When connected to the capture box there are some minor horizontal artifacts, kind of like this if you know what I mean. Also got an S-Video cable that looks perfect (granted, only tried on a CRT due to it becoming less common) but there is a lot of horizontal noise when connected to the DVD recorder. The S-Video cable was official, but also cheap because it's basically leftover stock. I reckon the capture box just has the artifacts because most people only care about using it with HDMI devices (and certainly not at 576i) and the DVD recorder is falling apart anyway, with the HDMI out and Freeview in busted and the drive making loud crunching noises.
