Consider also that component video may be progressive or interlaced, standard definition or any of several high definition resolutions... the problem becomes significantly more complex. Composite and S-Video both are only a single resolution and always interlaced.

I must admit, though, that an OSD overlay on all three outputs would be real nice... Considering you basically lose your TV's OSD for volume control when you add a receiver, it would add back that lost functionality. If the 950's successor had that as well as upconverting all sources to component... THAT would be convenience.

Would probably double the price of the thing though.
