New member Username: DrdoomPost Number: 4 Registered: Aug-06 | My TV has only one DVI-D connection and no HDMI connections, I currently have my STB connected to it via a DVI-D cable, I'm looking at an OPPO DVD player, I normally wouldn't have a problem connecting it via the component cables but reading the review on this player I've noticed that the progressive scan feature won't work unless it's connected to the TV via DVI. Now my question: besides getting a new TV or different DVD player what are my options? Is there some type of double DVI cable I can connect to my TV and be able to use both the DVD and STB via the one DVI connection? |

It's the upconversion that won't work through component. |
