RE: More Plasma stuff!

["Timothy Morris" <timothy.morris@xxxxxxx>]

The trouble with RGB is that you need to use the composite for sync and
the Panasonic won't let you connect both composite and svideo at the
same time.

The best bet will be to get an svideo switcher installed at node 0 and
pipe the feed though. 15m should be fine for native SVideo - I seem to
recall Phil running it over 20m.

You won't get any autoswitching with plasmas but if you are routing it
all through svid that doesn't matter.

The panasonic's svideo is very difficult to discern from the RGB
