Slightly OT: Panny 5 Series

["Rob Mouser" <rmouser@xxxxxxx>]

Hi All



I know this is an old chestnut. But my memory is failing and a search
through the av-forums doesn't find me the answer even though I know it
will be there! Here goes:

With the Panny (And Tosh) plasmas the RGB borrows the composite for the
synch which then renders the s-video unusable.....Bummer.

However if you connect using Component say using
(http://www.letsautomate.com/10895.cfm?)
does that then allow the
s-video input to be used?

Also.......

What are the differences between using the Component and VGA connectors?
Is one better than the other?

Lastly has anyone had any experience of these:

Many thanks
