Damn Technology

Tried to get my DVD player to work with the new HD TV using Component Video.

No luck. Got a Scart adapter so I could get 2 into one. Worked.

Yesterday tried a Blue Ray player - connected with HDMI cable using Surround Sound DVD player for sound - as I was connecting the cable I noticed a little switch on the back that said :-
S Video / Component.
It was switched to S Video - so you've guessed it. Switched it to Component - and lo and behold the TV works on Component now from the DVD player.

Nothing in the manual about the switch!

Damn - technology.
