I think I want to use s-video from my DVD and VCR into my receiver but I think my TV only has one s-video in. So my question is can I get a 2 into 1 s-video adapter? If yes do you know where? |

Bronze Member Username: DeadhorsePost Number: 12 Registered: May-06 | "You'll need something like this" like what? Forget the VCR for a second, and remember the receiver has no s-video, in or out. If I used the component connections from the DVD to receiver then how do I get to the TV? I would have to use RCA and then surely I would loose the quality of the component connection? I'm certainly arguing with you, I just want to understand how to get the best out of what i have. |
