part of the confusion is intermingling SIGNAL types and CONNECTOR types.
CURRENT SETUP:
===============
The following signals go to my Denon 5700 a/cv receiver’s “triple RCA†video inputs:
- HDTV (DTC100 via AudioAuthority component wires)1080i
- DVD component (480i)
I then have a 35ft long high quality 3-wire cable that goes from the 5700 to my current projector. the cable connects to the projector via 3 BNC connectors.
to USE the DVD player, i just set my current projector to COMPONENT
to USE the HDTV (1080i), i just set my current projector to HDTV Y Pb Pr
USE LT150 instead of current projector
====================================
what i would like to do is put the LT150 in the same position as the current projector. since it does not accept 3 BNC connectors, i want to get a SHORT (1 ft) CONVERSION cable that has THREE BNC female connectors on the one side, and a D15male connector on the other side.
the cable i need will differ from the breakout cables i’ve seen in the past, since the BNC connectors side should be the female (static prong) type, not the male (twirly ring) type.
1. does this type of conversion cable exist? can i get it from RatShack?
2. will it still work w/ both my signal types? (remember ONLY 3 wires will be connected)
3. will i be able to use it w/ a future progressice DVD player as well?
thks!
