a question about component video and receivers


Hi,
I have the Onkyo hts760 6.1 surround system. the receiver only has 2 component video inputs and 1 output, I have component cables for my ps2, gamecube, and dvd player. is there a toggle switch available so that all three can use component video and so i wont have to change the cables whenever i use a different system? i am not sure where to look for one of these or if its even available, ive done google searches but havent found anything of relevance yet. thanks.

Chris,

Here is a link to a few possible component video switchbox choices, both expensive and inexpensive:

If your TV has two component inputs, then you're all set....just run one of your components directly into the TV. I'd recommend the DVD player since some say that running video through your receiver degrades the picture quality.
