Component video and DVI/HDMI are not compatible - component is analog and DVI/HDMI are digital. You can't convert between them. Since the 950 lacks DVI or HDMI switching, you'll need to run the video straight from DVD player to TV or use a separate HDMI switcher. If you want a source for some good general info about HDMI, you can check out my FAQ .

Go with optical or coaxial (either) for your audio along with the HDMI-to-DVI from DVD to TV, and you'll be set.
