After connecting a new DVD player my component monitor out jacks are not working any more. S-video and composite is ok. Have to run component direct into TV for now. Is this a motherboard failure or has someone an easy solution?
SOURCE: Yamaha RX-V730 OSD problem
I assume you have a component connected source coming into the Yamaha to give it sync and you are component connected out to the monitor. If you have no input you won't have osd on component only without a signal to sync lock.
It is always possible that the 730 doesn't actually have component overlay for osd, just its a 2in 1 out switched affair. Hence the manual says you also need the composite/ Svid as well...They certainly don't use both at the same time. Newer units have full up + down video conversion but at this age it won't have.

Hi, firstly some terminology:
yellow cable - video composite (worst quality)
white/red - stereo analog audio
blue/green/red - video component (second best quality after HDMI)
You are correct that RX-V365 doesn't do audio over HDMI. Moreover it also doesn't do any video processing, which means composite video input will go only to composite video output (and not to component); compoment input only to component output and HDMI input only to HDMI output.
If you have more devices of same video output (in your example the component blue/green/red), you can connect them to TV via the receiver. But if only one device of same video output, you can connect it directly to TV. There is no reason to go through your receiver for video.
For audio, you can use either the analog stereo white/red cables (rx365 has 5 such inputs) or better use digital SPDIF connection, which is slightly better quality and more importantly supports 5.1 sound. There are 2 types - coaxial (orange RCA plug, can use basic rca cable) and optical (square black connector). Receiver has 1x coax spdif input and 2x optical spdif inputs. Look at your other equipment to decide which cable to use.
For the analog audio inputs, I think you can assign it either to composite video or component video. So for DVD audio white/red plugs, you can choose if either Video composite yellow plug named DVD will be used, or component blue/green/red named DVD will be used.
First, you must figure out If your TV has component video inputs. This is a set of five cables (red, blue and green for video and red and white for audio) and will give you the best picture on an hdtv
Then, If your TV does not have the component video cables, you will be using the red white and yellow composite yellows the system came with. A very simple connection.
Last, If your TV does have the component video inputs, you will need to buy a set of the Nintendo Wii Component Video cables from Walmart, Target or any other gaming store. These will enable widescreen view and the best picture quality.
To connect your DVD player, you need to located the composite video inputs and s-video. Composite video is a yellow, female RCA jack, normally found next to two audio jacks, one red, the other white. The three jacks together provide an interface for audiovisual connections. The red RCA jack connects the right channel of a stereo system, while the white RCA jack connects the left. The yellow composite video jack rounds out the set.
When playing the Wii, you will need to be on the correct video input "Component"
When playing the DVD, you will be on "Composite/Svideo."

Thanks for the replies but not correct.
I use component in for HD set top box and DVD but the monitor out has failed for component, not for composite or s-video.
the new DVD player has been removed but the old one is not recognised any more I take it. please rethink everyone??
the component monitor out jacks produce an unstable flickering picture.
