I've read through and printed the FAQ at the top of this forum and am still looking for the deffinitive answer to my question before I pull the trigger and by an X1.
I have a progressive DVD (Pan SCHT700), a PS2, an Xbox, and Gamecube. I puchased the Pelican System Selector Pro to run everything into, which has composite, component, S-Video, and Digital in-outs.

For example, when I connect my PS2 to the system selector by S-Video, will it be sent to the PJ through the component-VGA connection, or does the signal NOT translate and I need to run an S-Video to the PJ as well. The Xbox has a connection kit, PS2 and Gamecube have S-Video, and DVD has component.
Or is eveything I'm wondering be put to rest by just using an S-Video on everything?!
I would like to puchase my X1 this weekend along with any cables I need. The distance from the equipment to the X1 (after going through the walls and across the ceiling to the PJ) is about 25-30', but can be re-positioned to 20-25'. Thank you.
