Re: two more

I have heard the Monster Cable horror stories and I can easily see how it could happen. A damaged input is/was my biggest concern. However, if the input was damaged would it still pass the DVD signal?

The 9000ES DVD player has a switch on the back, as well as the menu screen, to set the output signal. I tried the switch in both 480 P and I and the signal seemed to be going through. When I say seemed I mean the menu screen was there for both.

Both video games output 480I (or lower) until a game kicks in that is of a higher resolution (I think).

I took the video game cables to a friend’s house yesterday and they worked fine on his consoles through his receiver.

Sitting here at work I had a light bulb go off. I know some displays limit what signal the Component input can handle. I didn't think my Panasonic did, at least it says it doesn't in the manual, but I am going to change the receivers output into the other component video input on the TV and see if that works. Up to this point I had just plugged the video game systems into the free input on the TV.
