I was just wondering if normal RCA Y-splitters (2 female to 1 male) present any problems when wanting to attach two component sources to a TV?
I know a switcher would probably be the best option, but I'm looking for something cheaper than a relatively expensive component switcher. Plus, I KNOW I'm only ever hooking up two sources (a Playstion 2 and a Gamecube) and this is only a 32" TV anyway. So, obviously, I'm not looking for the highest-end solution for a projection system or anything like that. I'm basically just wondering if there is any real problem with using Y-splitters for this application.
