go and check the for s-video, the last i looked it supports 720x576 as a default resolution...

the issue with the external av switch is the availability to support RIHD, so it can be switch when not in use and is very much a flawed option ad you need direct line of sight to use it, not sure about the commercial market though most ir av switches you buy in the domestic market, don;t support this feature, sadly I don't own svhs vhs player I only got a oldie which only supports composite..

most of the commercial based units I hazard a guess wouldn't support rihd either..

it's just not a simple of writing macos eit5her

i'm trying to reduce power consumption as much as possible..

also note i'm already using multiple av switches, i'm trying to reduce power point use..

i was planning to use a extension cable for the controllers anyway..

anyway I was using console as an example anyway, I was trying to reduce the requirement for more points to cover the option of owning multiple network consoles

not mention the units that aren't networked..

while scart may be european, we're all not based in the US or Canada..

I only comment on scart because it may support hdmi resolutions that's all..


yup I think nintendo went more for the retro gamer market on its release of the wii..
when i get 1 i'll let you know what connection it has..
