It has two input sockets but the TV's remote doesn't adress them nor does the manual mention switching between them.

The system centre is a Yamaha DSP E492 which can switch a bunch of video inputs, just so long as they are composite video. Pity about that, HT is very low priority, but safety isn't it would be convenient too.

As I said in another return post, I think I will need a 'comp to s' converter box, and an in line 2 to 1 S-video switch, for the DVD players S-video out.

If I can get a kit like a pcb I'd put the switching inside thr box and run just one cable to the TV.
