Hi,
I have 5 dvd players and also a home cinema system.
I find S-VHS works best with VHS playback.
Component for DVD.
I found an amzing website that went into extrordinary lenghts on what each format does and why,I will try and hunt this out.
I can remember the info stated that Component was created with DVD in mind from day one beacuse its the ideal output medium for MPEG playback,It carries far less decoding material.
An svhs lead run from a DVD will have to convert the signal a few times.

I find component flaws shvs on DVD playback,I have a 100 inch screen being fed into a Barco CRT projector,Also a 32" Toshiba rear projection tv set.

Also games machines look stunning in Component,Espeahially the xbox.
If i had to choose Component wins hands down.
regards,
Ian.
