Hi,
Since the video signal have to travel through the A/V Unit, doesn’t it loose
a bit of quality and ‘degrades’ a bit?
Here is the SETUP:
================================================== ====================
TV: 36” Sony WEGA KV-36XBR250 [June 1999, no Progressive Scan feature]
A/V Unit: Sony STR-DE835
DVD Player: JVC XV-D701
PlayStation2: Gaming Console
SEGA Dreamcast: Gaming Console
================================================== ====================
Generic “SVGA” Cable from TV’s OUT into A/V Unit’s “SVGA IN”
“SVGA Monster Cable" from DVD Player into A/V Unit’s “SVGA IN”
PlayStation2 --> VIDEO 4 (Directly to TV’s VIDEO 4 Input, not A/V Unit)
SEGA Dreamcast --> VIDEO 1 (A/V Unit)
DVD --> VIDEO 1 (A/V Unit)
VHS Player --> VIDEO 2 (A/V Unit)
VIDEO 2 (TV’s front Panel) --> NOT USED
VIDEO 3 --> NOT USED (both TV’s Input and A/V Unit)
So, when I press VIDEO 1 on my A/V Unit’s Remote Control, I get SEGA Dreamcast signal,
then if press DVD I get DVD’s signal and finally VHS button provides the VHS’ signal.
The only time that I need to press “input” button on my A/V unit, is when I want to get
PlaySation2 signal (remember it is connected to my VIDEO 4 input of TV unit)
Final WORD:
I know it is a very subjective matter, but when I had my DVD Player connected to my VIDEO 4 Input
of TV using “COMPONENT” Monster Cable, compared to this setup I can NOT tell the difference.
My PlayStation2 is also connected via a “COMPONENT” Monster Cable.
Here are some pictures: (older setup when DVD was connected va COMPONENT)
