    This has nothing on component. Bring me that dual red connectors while trying to figure out which one was video or audio.

        And every component cord I’ve used had some way of separating the two audio cords from the three video cords. I’ve struggled more trying to figure out which way is up on an HDMI.

          Seriously, HDMI is the worst connector to try to fiddle with. At least DisplayPort lets you kinda figure it out

            USB beats HDMI hands down. Ever heard of HDMI Superposition? No, me neither.

            (I just DuckDuckWent it to be sure.)

              I would honestly disagree, USB is easily to look/feel for. HDMI is not. Most HDMI cables will stick inside of the molded hole in the plastic frames and you almost always have to plug in the connector without being able to physically look at the connector
