RE: AV Switcher

["Paul Gale" <groups@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

What you want is a 'Matrix' switcher - any input to any output and also
amplifies so that you get no signal loss when sending one source to
multiple outs. I don't know about this JVC unit (and price?).

I have an Extron MAV128 - 12 inputs and 8 outputs, front panel and RS232
controllable. Also allows audio breakaway so you can send audio/video
independently to any output - very useful. It is composite but I find no
difference for supplying all the TV's around the house (apart from the
plasma which is supplied by RGB to YUV from Sky+).

Hi

I was wondering if the new JVC JX-S777 will give you the option to switch
all the different inputs to multiple outputs.  i.e. watch different inputs
on all 5 different outputs.  Also is there anything like this in the CAT5
end of things?  I know there is a roomer of a KAT5 switch but we'll all be
waiting and have been waiting a long time for that.  Let's not give up
hope...

I'm nearly finished my house so will have to get a A/V switcher of some
sort
or SWMBO will be moving in with no TV etc while I'm off skiing! Won't go
down to good :-(

Any suggestions would be appreciated

Brian
