jfk Posted June 4, 2006 Posted June 4, 2006 Hi I am planning to run the SCV HD setup box to both projector and tv. since the setup box only has 1 component output, i was thinking of getting a component switch box. does anyone know where to get one? SLT/SLS? those who are using it now, how much would it cost? I don't think the usual composite/audio switch box can work right? thanks

I don't think the usual composite/audio switch box can work right? thanks I saw some models at SLS (can't remember which floor but they sell connectors, cables, electronic stuff, etc). There are 4-1 component switching, mixture of component and composite switching, etc. Pricing around $60 to $110. In the end, I saw a similar one at Challenger (Funan) and bought the 4-1 component switching box at around $76. (SLS was selling at $110 for the same model).
civicguy Posted June 5, 2006 Posted June 5, 2006 I had a similar need. Nearly bough this one.. seemed to be quite good with good reviews.. But need to ship from USA... http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000AM3U2I/sr=8-1/qid=1148884509/ref=pd_bbs_1/104-5172319-0452759?%5Fencoding=UTF8
W Posted June 5, 2006 Posted June 5, 2006 will there be some kind of signal loss or signal degradation from using such component switch ? cos I also have a similar need ...LCD tv only has 2 component input but I have 4 component out devices ( SCV box, DVDP, PS2, XBOX360)

civicguy Posted June 5, 2006 Posted June 5, 2006 The reviews seems good. Why didnt u get it? Cos of the shipping charges? Make do with my 2 component videos on my CRT for now (1 for DVD, 1 for Xbox). Use SCART for my DVD recorder for now (that's the 3rd component video slot i needed). Think will buy a LCD in the next few months so probably will just buy one with many component slots :) But the Toshiba I want has 1 HDMI and 2 component only. I dont have any HDMI player :(
