I have a Sony XBR WEGA 36" monitor. This TV has 2 sets of component inputs. I am considering hooking up a PC using a HDTV component video out from a Radeon video card.

Basically, I have a program that I've written (writing) that I will be able to use my TV as an interface to my MP3s on a dedicated MP3 server. Is there something I can do so that I can allow 3 inputs into my TV? I know I could get a receiver that does component video switching, but since my receiver is fairly new I don't think that is in the budget.

Thanks!

From my experience, a receiver with component video switching is the least expensive option.

Sorry

I might just have to settle for S-Video for now, or switch my DVD to s-video and output to the Sony with an adapter (http://www.ati.com/products/pc/hdtvadapter/index.html) for the Radeon 8500 series cards. Still researching though.
