Increasing Composite Inputs

[Bronx19]

Hey guys.

I was wandering if you could help me out with a problem.

I am going to purchase the LG 60' LCD RPTV, and would like to know if there is a way I can increase the number of composite inputs on the back?

[Shaw Goh \(NetPlus Micro Computers\)]

Only by using a component video switch.

My LG RPTV has 2 component inputs, how many did you need??

Do you want additional composite or component inputs?

Don't know what your receiver is.
As Shaw said, you need a component switcher.
I switch component by using a 6:1 VGA switch using breakout cables. (VGA to
BNC)
I picked it up cheap on Ebay for under $100.

I have a Sony sound system. It has many component inputs in the back.

Can I connect a digital video recorder through it or visa versa?

Unless you are more specific on model no-one could tell you what you can or
cannot do.
Nrmally if the TV only has one component input, but the source switcher has
multiple inputs, then you should be able to use the source switcher to do
the job you want.
Why don't you try it?
You cannot break anything.

Thanks for the information.

So my best bet is to pick up a switcher?

Any recommended brands?

I thought you said that the Sony had many component inputs. If so, why not
use it?

Oh yes, sorry. I will certainly try that.

Thanks for the help.
