normally the way i have my ststem setup is all devices audio and video go directlly to my reciver (HK avr 210) then i used monitor out to the tv via svideo

however after looking into and reading i now want to run all video devices directlly to the tv
(sammy 50" dlp)

i have a cable box and a dvd player
all audio devices connect directlly to the reciver , and all video do directlly to the tv

dvd via component ,
cable box via s-video

the problem with doin this is that i can no longer see the OSD from my reciver on the tv.

if i got an S-video Y-Cable , (2 female 1 male)
would this work ?

i know i have 2 s vid inputs on the tv but it would save me changing sources jsut to see the osd.

it would be setup like this ..
________________

dvd player to tv via component
cable box to tv via s-video into y adaptor
reciver to tv via s-video into y-adaptor

this way i could use the osd when useing the cable box but no when useing the dvd player . which is fine.



any idea or info , thank you
