that doesn't really help me - I have an HDMI-only home setup - multiple HDMI sources switched by the AV receiver drive a single TV, I'd have to somehow create a parallel composite switch from all the video sources - Bunnie Huang's NeTV can almost do this (and with a nod and a wink one could hack the fpga to do it) so the technology is available to an enterprising hacker - whether you can make a commercial product that does this without licensing HDMI (or licensing and still making it open source) and without getting sued is debatable

All the devices that connect to my TV are HDMI as well. Put a splitter/converter after your AV receiver and you're good.
