On the 'outputting both standard and high def
signals at the same time issue', I would confirm
before I committed.
The current DirecTV boxes (With TIVO) that we
have run into will indeed output on component
and SD jacks at the same time, but only when the
resolution is set to SD.
When the boxes were switched to output in high
def, the standard def outputs were cut off.
Fortunately, this model has a simple push button
and indicator on the front panel. Not hard to
show a customer how to switch between the two.
Mine is not a TIVO box, not sure if that makes a difference. All I have is the 480/720/1080 indicator. Never really paid attention to it, just know that my DLP w HDMI and my proj w s vid/composite were "hot" simultaneoulsy. You may have proven me wrong on the HD/SD issue. I ll check again tomorrow. I know I never ACTIVLEY switched it off HD. I had a picture, and just assumed it would have been like all other STB;s and cut off SD if HD was active
