Would it be possible to add switching of RGB to G6x, and transcoding to RGB from component to G9x? In addition, scaling of component and mirroring on HDMI output on G9x would be very useful.

3-wire RGB can be switched in 861 and G68.

At our level of audio performance, mixing video and audio processing in a single chassis is something to be avoided wherever possible, and as such probably won't be added to the audio processors.

Component scaling is already possible in G9x where not limited by copy protection restrictions It is theoretically possible to provide a firmware update for G9x that allows 3-wire SD RGB as an input; what is the application?

The application is for RGB from SCART based set top boxes, Sky, Freeview etc to be routed at maximum availabily quality through the Meridian kit and output via component/HDMI. These boxes normally provide composite, s-video or RGB SCART (RGB+Synch on composite). External boxes to achieve this are relatively expensive. It would be great to be able to treat 3 x component + 1 x composite inputs as RGB+synch and switch these in G68 and transcode these to component or HDMI.

In addition, there are a number of component 1080i sources now, ie HD camcorders, HD-DVD, Sky HD and the ability to take in 1080i via component and mirror on a single HDMI lead. Presently, component source input, other than interlaced SD requires a seperate component output and switching in the display. A single HDMI output would significantly cut down cabling clutter and user expense.
