What are the different kinds of pots (TV connectors) needed?

Amino STB

SCART: It is the most widely used cable in Europe. It functions using the following 3 connectors: composite, RGB or S-Video.
S-Video: It separates the video signal into chrominance (color) and luminance (brightness) allowing them to process it individually.
Composite: It uses only one RCA for the video signal. Chrominance (color) and luminance (brightness) are combined, thus sending them through only one cable.

Pirelli STB

If you install Pirelli STB you will meet HDMI cable :

HDMI: (High-Definition Multimedia Interface) is a compact audio/video interface for transmitting uncompressed digital data.[1] It represents a digital alternative to consumer analog standards, such as Radio Frequency (RF) coaxial cable, composite video, S-Video, SCART, component video, D-Terminal, and VGA. HDMI connects digital audio/video sources—such as set-top boxes, Blu-ray Disc players, personal computers (PCs), video game consoles (such as the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360)

HDMI supports, on a single cable, any TV or PC video format, including standard, enhanced, and high-definition video and up to 8 channels of digital audio.
