actually what I'm hearing from both Altec and Scott is that this arrangement is not recommended because the Y-cables create a direct bridge between the two players' output sections (something that the designers of the players and the processor do not expect to see happen) and they do not recommend creating that condition.
I can attest to this. Last year was asked to diagnose a problem in a boardroom av setup. Some networking guy set it up so that a dvd player and computer dock were connected across the room from the big flatscreen, and used y cables to send both sets of signals through one set of 75ohm cabling. We had to replace the DVD player, and the rca audio on the computer was dead (still could use the headphone jack, though). Fortunately, they didn't share the same video signals...
