I'm trying to come up with a streaming video box solution for an older setup. I need some AV guru's to chime in to see what is going to work best. The TV is funky, Fujitsu PDS4233W (manual/specs) and a 5.1 stereo setup with a Yamaha RX-V630 (manual/specs). So in a nutshell I've got an older TV with some strange resolution limits and a single composite input, S-video, D-sub, DVI, and component. A receiver that does basically composite, S-video and component, with new media streamers being all HDMI. The way I see it I have two options, go with an older streaming box that supports an older input (probably a Roku) or get an HDMI to component converter. The first solution has the issue of it not being supported for very long or possibly almost right away, plus most of the inputs I've seen are HDMI or composite, so extreme ends of the spectrum. The converter option I really have no idea what the pitfalls are of that. The main services I'm looking to run are Netflix, Amazon, Hulu+ Any suggestions?
