Arseen:
Well t is one way to understand but my answer stands.

Selector -> TV = both.
Console -> selector = one or the other, S-video suggested, if not available then use yellow plug. Not both.

This is my set-up:

My NES 2 (Modded for composite), SNES 2, N64, and PsOne go into this device:

My SMS2 (Modded for composite), 32X, Saturn, and Dreamcast go into another unit (same exact product)

From the Outputs of the two units, a Composite cable (Red, White, Yellow) goes out to this device so that I can switch between the 2 main units:

From that A/B unit, the Output goes to my HD Upscaler, the DVDO EDGE. From the EDGE, an HDMI cable goes to my TV to display the picture.

Notice that I only INPUT the S-video into the 5-way switcher... I output using standard composites from there on because that A/B switch does not have an S-video out nor in... so idk what the hell I'm getting.

Arseen:
So the 4-way switchers are connected to the A/B selector.

To where is the 5 -way switcher connected?

There are only two 5-way switchers.... I don't have any 4-ways. Look again, please.

Arseen:
OK, it looked like the switchers were 4 in / 2 out, but they are 5 in / 1 out.

Does your upscaler have S-video in? if yes just update your A/B selector to model that has S-video in/out.

Then Use S-video cables for those consoles that can use them, and yellow for the others.

And as your TV has HDMI I assume it has VGA too? If yes, get VGA box for the dreamcast.
