With Sky HD and the new consoles appearing soon, I'm facing the dilema of connecting them all up with connections that don't exist on my viewing gear.
I have a HS10 Sony Projector. A PC is connected via the DVI port, Sky Box via SVideo and Xbox via component. The last two over the long proprietary cable into the projector.
So...
I could go component for the Xbox360 and SKYBOX HD and use a switcher which would then feed the component connection on the long cable. ( Any recomendations? ) This would be the simplest and cheapest yet I would guess give the worst PQ out of my options.
Next a DVI or HDMI switch. This suddenly gets exensive and drops me into the unknown. I could go..
PC - DVI to HDMI Cable - HDMI SwitchBox
XBOX360 - HDMI - HDMI SwitchBox
SKY HD - HDMI - HDMI SwitchBox
Then from HDMI Switch box use a HMDI to DVI cable into the HS10.
Or use a DVI switch but would that knacker me up re being HDCP complient?
Also is there a penalty for using HDMI to DVI?
Regarding the HS10, I have to use PowerStrip to get a proper image to fit from the PC, what happens via DVI / HDMI from a HD Source?
God I'm confused
