conections for DVD player/TV/surround amp trying to work out the best way.

[nads]

This is for the is for the second set up in the bed room and i am a bit confused. Starting with the source i have the 2 digi outs (optical and coax) and component, S-vhs and normal video and audio (and HDMI but non of the other parts have that so..)The Amp has all of the above so if i get it right component for the picture and one of the digi for the sound?Now for the picture to the TV, the TV has DVI ,S-vhs and Video in (and a scart).So i guess the best in for the picture is the S-vhs? or can i use the DVI some how? Considering that the Amp only has the same outs as ins. Or should i say sod it and just connect the DVD and TV direct and have the sound only from the DVD to the amp?I feel i will end up with S-vhs to the TV direct and Digi to the Amp but i was wondering if there was anything better?

HDMI to DVI cable source to TV, electrical digital source to receiver for sound.

thank you muchly, had not thought of that one.Now if i recall correctly you have recommended the Supra one?

No sure I did - think Andy Kerr may have done so in another thread. For the TV connection you could also use an HDMI cable plus an HDMI-to-DVI adapter, but I'd go with an HDMI/DVI lead if possible.
