PS2 through component - worth bothering with?

[CRTGAMER]

20 inch probably too small for component to be included. 25/27 and up.

My 20" Samsung SD CRT TX-T2042X has Component hookup, have DVD, BluRay, Video Player, Digital Broadcast Tuner and Cox Box all hooked up. There is also a Samsung 16" CRT and certain Sony 20" CRTs that have Component as well.

An older picture, I have since went in the Service menu and adjusted the Horizontal Shift, the entire CNN Logo can now be seen.

"And during the 2000's I also purchased 3 or 4 of whatever the cheapest 13" CRT's were at Wal-Mart, several from cheap sounding names like Qazar, Daewoo, and so on for bedroom tv's and the kitchen (Including the last CRT that I ever saw there new back around 2012). Every last one to a tee had component video capabilities despite me not even bothering to check to see if they had that option each time."

When our local Pamida was going out of business, they had a 13" Floor Model HAIER (same brand as my microwave?O) CRT on a table for sale on clearance for $15. I totally snagged it up and was pleasantly surprised that it had analog coax, digital coax, 1 composite, and 1 component/composite shared inputs! The sound on it is pretty weak, but, still, for $15, I got quite a deal. TV still works fine.

Xwhatever on using component, if you have or can get a set for a reasonable price.

Apparently some TV's don't support 240p over component, so on those TV's playing PSX games on a PS2 over component is a problem. There can also be some minor issues on games like Chrono Cross where the game is mostly 240p but menus are in 480i, leading to the screen going out for a second as it changes resolution. It's still my preferred way to play PSX games, though.
