OK, that note relates solely to the video switching's ability to convert between S-Video and composite -- not the component switching, or the "native" (S-video to S-video or composite to composite) switching. Some early 950's had some strange video artifacts on the S-Video switching, and in eliminating it they modified the S-video/composite conversion. It still works (although on at least one test unit they outright removed it), but they were not able to achieve the desired level of performance in the composite-to-S-video conversion process, so they added that slip letting folks know that the feature was still there but that some people might notice some signal degradation.

I'm lucky in that my VCR is a Super-VHS unit and my digital cable box has an S-Video out, so I've never tested the composite-to-S conversion to see how it looks.
