Video Problems:
I've been an Onkyo fan for years and this receiver replaces an Onkyo that I've been very happy with. I bought this receiver because of the HDMI inputs, the THX certification, to have one cable to the TV, and the good reviews. Let me start off by saying I won't touch on AUDIO at all, there is no question this is an awesome AUDIO device. With that said, if you plan to hook up a Wii (component in, HDMI out), forget it.
