Video Asylum

Posted by Ran on February 11, 2000 at 04:55:27:

heard about a problem with changing sources when using s-video through receiver. anyone else experience this. essentially what is supposed to be happening (unsure but wanted to confirm if anyone else has experienced this) is that when one connects multiple sources like dvd, vcr etc to receiver via s-video and then connect receiver to monitor via s-video, one cannot automatically flip from one to another source for video feed via monitor. of course there are ways around it like not using s-video at all but i wanted to confirm that this was a known problem if indeed it was. also, is it only when using the remote or even when using the knob on the receiver to change sources. Will changing the remote fix it if it is caused by the remote? thanks for any constructive feedback or comments.
