    Update: I checked the measurements this morning when I got to the house. The distance between the mantle and the ceiling was 1/4" greater on one of the sides.

    OSD and Yamaha Receiver Question

    Update: I've found the answer that I was seeking. With the Yamaha HTR-5760, signals can only be "up-converted" to the S-Video level.
