well.. i pulled the trigger.. ordered the outlaw 990 & the new radiient tech. 4 switcher, handles 1080p in and out, and is even HDCP certified and ready.. one of the only switchers that will work with my HTPC and cable connection. (comcast)

dvdo was not needed, no need for a scaler when im starting out in 1080p on everything.. made a couple of calls and bam found the switcher that works with my HTPC (cellar cinemas 696)

hopefully everything will come in soon and i will let you all know how its working out

It sounds like you found a good solution that will work with all your great gear. I think you will enjoy the 990; I continue to enjoy mine. I'm looking forward to hearing how everything works out for you.

Enjoy!

Should be a nice setup, boca.
