I am using the "monitor out" sections L/R & S-Vid outputs.

The TV speakers is just for those late night moments to watch DVD or VHS w/o amp/pre/speakers

The (heavy duty monster) RCA cables were just fine prior to removing the 950, installing the 970 but I'll give that a shot. BTW- the "video" problem with Video 1 above WAS just dirty heads! What a coincidence that it occurred when I switched units though.

Thanks for the reply!

I've tried 2 mini plug cables for trigger & neither one works.
