Does anyone have a creative way of incorporating a Sony Playstation 2 with the 1050? I just shoot it straight through the TV. Thanks.

The 1050 has Video1, 2, and 3 audio inputs plus an auxilary connection. I connected a video switcher to video3 and connected the TV's line-level jacks to the Aux. I can run everything thru the 1050 now. Just connect the PS to one of the video inputs, choose that setting and play, you'll love it.

Here's two ideas, depending on how you're already set up.

If you've got the TV getting an S-video signal from the Outlaw, use the Video2 input for S-video and audio from the PS2. (A side note -- I plan to add a PS2 eventually, and when I do I'll set my system up as follows: video1 will be s-video from S-VHS VCR/digital cable box, video2 will be s-video from PS2, video3 will be line-level audio from TV for watching analog cable if the VCR is recording something else, and DVD s-video will be DVD player; TV will get an s-video signal from the monitor out on the 1050).

If you are using the composite video switching in the Outlaw, you could use either video2 or video3 for the PS2.

And I suppose, if you are not using the 1050 for any video switching, you could leave four connection as it is now for video and connect the audio (either 2-channel analog or optical digital) to the audio inputs for Aux, Vid2, or Vid3 (figuring you'd reserve Vid1 for the VCR).

I'm running PS2 via component cables into my TV and using Optical cable (OPT 2 on the Outlaw).
