hello....

on friday, i have the following being delivered:

Samsung HLN617W DLP
Samsung SIR-TS360 HD sat receiver
Samsung DVD-HD841 dvd player

on saturday, direct tv will install HD Sat service.

with only one DVI input on the DLP, how should i "cable-up"?

i want the "up-converting" capabilities of the DVD.....

I *personally* would hook the set-top box up with DVI and the rest with component. But I spend the most time watching TV - not dvd's.

I've heard the DVD-HD841 performs better on component video than DVI.

OTOH, I have the Samsung SIR-T351....feeding my TV (HLN4365W1) using the VGA port....meanwhile, I'm waiting for the DVD-HD941 to arrive.

Someday I'll be shopping around for a 4 port DVI switcher (wonder if they make an auto-switcher that also does digital audio....)...initially I'll want to handle the DVD player and the HD DVR...but I can see myself having more than one HD DVR down the road....
