Component video switching is completely independent from the S-video/composite video switching on the 950 (you would need to switch your TV between the component input and S-video input). The two component inputs are assigned to the DVD and Video1 inputs, as I recall, so you could hook the DVD up via both S-video and component and the 950 wouldn't care -- both signals would be passed separately to the respective monitor outs. From what I've read here, the component video switching does fine.
