they work perfectly and theres no need to plug them in.

"No s-video???"
soundwave925:
it would be nice but i can live without it. i dont want to pay the prices to get most of my systems moded for s-video, nor would i want them to be moded.

One trick I've learned - if you have a component and a composite device, and you have a switch box that lets you hook up either a component or composite device into one switch, get the RCA Y cables for the audio and put both devices onto one button.
I'm sure I lose some video quality in my set up, but it works very well. Except that my wife doesn't like it because she can't figure any of it out. :D

Here's what not to pick.
These 2 I used to use.
The one on the left would be good if the switches didn't break after a couple of presses.
The one on the right got the 2 stars because 1. It does its job 2.S-video. Other than that...absolute crap. Kills colors and creates some notable horizontal feedbackish lines.
