Actually that does help...more then you realize.
I will plug the component cables directly to the DVD player and see what results I achieve.

I dont use a VCR in my HT ... Just DVD and a Xbox360....

Once my HK DVD 47 gets a firmware update I will switch to HDMI and use component for the xbox360.

Thanks SQ...I knew I could count on you.
