What sorts of video connections are available?
Composite, S-Video and component are all possible via AV cables, but for the best image quality the system also employs a built-in HDMI connection. Are there still jaggies? In some cases, though they’re generally very slight and much less obtrusive than what we saw on the PlayStation 2. The high-def output of the system means that these pixels are very tiny to begin with, largely cutting down on this problem, and the ability to use anti-aliasing further reduces this side effect. What sort of surround sound support does the PlayStation 3 feature? For in-game audio, Dolby Digital, Dolby Pro Logic II and DTS are all supported and processed by the Cell. However, keep in mind that since all the audio processing is done by the Cell, developers could use or create whatever audio codecs they desire. 7.1 channel support has already been implemented, but again, given developers’ ability to program their own codecs, this may only be a starting point.
