TIP #2: You've wired your HDTV's audio wrong.
We sell 100's of
component video cables every day and wonder why the buyer doesn't buy the accompanied right and left audio cable as shown
hereThey all tell us..."Oh, we're using an digital optical cable to our amp".
They watch Larry King Live in 5.1 surround sound or the news with a subwoofer....dah.
Our recommendation is to wire BOTH...(1) wire right and left audio to your HDTV speakers and (2) wire the digital audio to your receiver. Then you have the flexibility to listen to either.

TIP #1: How do I convert DVI/HDMI to component video?
Q: Hey, I just got a new upscaling DVD player and want to wire it to my 4-year old HDTV that has only a red-green-blue component input, what cable do I buy?
A: There is no adapter, converter or cable that will convert an "digital" DVI or HDMI signal to a "analog" component signal. If you want a scaler to do it just go to http://www.hdtvsupply.com/scalers.html and spend upwards of a thousand bucks.
Q: Gulp, I don't want to do that, what is another option?
A: Stick with component.
Q: But I have only one component input on my HDTV and have 3 devices with component outputs...a DVD player, a high definition Tivo and an Xbox, what do I do now?
A: That's easy, you need a component video switcher that switches multiple component video inputs to one component video output. See ours at http://www.hdtvsupply.com/cosw.html
Q: Cool, thanks.
