Something tells me this would be a no go since that would be my only option with my available equipment and something like the Sony 300 BD player. I think I would need an HDMI connection also to the display to get lossless from the audio outputs.The PS3 isn't going to work with a component connection for video and HDMI for audio to get lossless tracks. I would also need an HDMI connection to the display.

That's what I'm doing except inserting an HDMI-to-DVI adapter. You would only need the HDMI to pass digital audio.
Eventually I'll wind up with a video switcher of some kind. I'll have multiple (TBD?) HDMI sources feeding two displays (current one DVI and one probable HDMI. And it might be built into whatever pre/pro I elect to prochure.
Can't do it currently. My present display which is a Tosh 50" HDTV ready RPTV can only go 1080i and only component connection is available.
I think there are more folks than one may think at this point that are only running component for the video and perhaps only optical for the audio also.
If I can get lossless using the analog connections and run component for the video then I'll be getting a player this weekend, probably the Sony 300.
The PS3 only gives me the audio through optical at this point and I want more than those audio tracks if I'm going to take the plunge.
There is a video cable adapter currently available for around $200 that allows converting your component inputs on one's display to an HDMI input. But that is even more cash I'd have to lay out. I know I'll be stuck not being able to upconvert SD DVDs staying only with component but so long as I can watch those in 480p, I'm OK with that.
