I think you mean component not composite. Composite,the one that uses a single yellow color coded connector for video and usually a white and red for left and right audio is limited to 480P analog resolution, component which uses 3 video connectors one for each primary color plus usually 2 audio connectors (typically coded orange, blue, green, white and red) allows up to 720P by industry practices and anything over 720P must be on HDMI. While component video can in theory handle 1080i, it is typically limited to 720P for anti-copying reasons since it is an analog standard with no copy protection or crypto.
