Commodore 64
The Commodore 64, also known as the C64, is an 8-bit home computer introduced in January 1982 by Commodore International (first shown at the Consumer Electronics Show, January 7–10, 1982, in Las Vegas).
Commodore International
Commodore International Corporation (other names include Commodore International Limited) was a Bahamian home computer and electronics manufacturer with executive offices in the United States founded by Jack Tramiel and Irving Gould. Commodore International (CI), along with its subsidiary Commodore Business Machines (CBM), was a significant participant in the development of the home computer industry in the 1970s to early 1990s.

Component video
Component video is an analog video signal that has been split into two or more component channels. S-Video and component video are Film and video technology and video signal.
See S-Video and Component video
Composite monitor
A composite monitor or composite video monitor is any analog video display that receives input in the form of an analog composite video signal to a defined specification.
See S-Video and Composite monitor
Composite video
Composite video is an baseband analog video format that typically carries a 415, 525 or 625 line interlaced black and white or color signal, on a single channel, unlike the higher-quality S-Video (two channels) and the even higher-quality component video (three or more channels). S-Video and Composite video are video signal.
See S-Video and Composite video
DIN connector
The DIN connector is an electrical connector that was standardized by the Deutsches Institut für Normung (DIN), the German Institute for Standards, in the mid 1950s, initially with 3 pins for mono, but when stereo connections and gear appeared in late 1950s (1959 or so), versions with 5 pins or more were launched.
Dot crawl
Dot crawl (also known as chroma crawl or cross-luma) is a visual defect of color analog video standards when signals are transmitted as composite video, as in terrestrial broadcast television.
Hertz
The hertz (symbol: Hz) is the unit of frequency in the International System of Units (SI), equivalent to one event (or cycle) per second.
I²C
I2C (Inter-Integrated Circuit; pronounced as “” or “”), alternatively known as I2C or IIC, is a synchronous, multi-controller/multi-target (historically-termed as master/slave), single-ended, serial communication bus invented in 1982 by Philips Semiconductors.

Video
Video is an electronic medium for the recording, copying, playback, broadcasting, and display of moving visual media.
Video-in video-out
Video in video out (usually seen as the acronym VIVO), commonly pronounced (VEE-voh), is a graphics port which enables some video cards to have bidirectional (input and output) analog video transfer through a mini-DIN connector, usually of the 9-pin variety, and a specialised splitter cable (which can sometimes also transfer analog audio). S-Video and video-in video-out are Film and video technology.
See S-Video and Video-in video-out
YPbPr
YPbPr or Y'PbPr, also written as, is a color space used in video electronics, in particular in reference to component video cables. S-Video and YPbPr are video signal.
