Hi All, confused of Bournemouth here.....
Need some advice. I have a home cinema setup based around a Yamaha DSP-E492 which is now nearly 4 years old and I'm thinking of upgrading.
I'm looking at the new Denon AVR-1803. I notice it has video component inputs and outputs. I quite like the idea of switching video as well as audio via the amp. (The Yamaha only has composite video in/out so previously I've done the TV switching separately).
Q1: I currently use the RGB input on my widescreen TV - is this the same thing (as component)?
Q2: If NO why don't they put RGB SCARTS on the back of Home cinema receivers so that you can switch RGB? Seems sensible to me - my DVD player outputs RGB and so does my NTL cable box.
I'm not wildly excited by the S-video alternative. I'm used to RGB now.
Many thanks in advance
