Rsp-1066 Osd

I am running component video to my projector (Dish Network and Xbox) and a HDMI cable from the OPPO BDP-83 to the projector. I have an S-video cable routed in the wall between the RSP-1066 and the projector but have never used it.

Here's a quote from the Rotel manual that has kept me from using the S-Video cable (for OSD):

System Set-Up: System setup should be done
while using a Composite video or S-Video cable
connecting the RSP-1066 TV MONITOR outputs
to the video input of the TV or projector.
No other video connections should be made
at this time. (emphasis added) Select OSD ( ON-SCREEN MENU)
from the RR-969 remote control to complete
system setup.

I have always interpreted this bolded statement as meaning don't have any other videl cables hooked up with the OSD is being used over S-Video (or composite). As a result, I have run a composite cable to a 2.5" B&W TV screen sitting by the 1066 for when I want to switch inputs It's a real drag to squint :E at the screen to make the changes.

Does anyone know if there is a technical reason why I couldn't hook up the S-Video while the component cables are hooked up and use the S-Video line for OSD (since OSD won't pass over component)?

Thanks.

At this time being the key words. I think they wanted to make sure you would get the OSD and not try over component. There's no issues hooking up all outputs of the 1066 at the same time.

Thanks for the reply. I'll hook up the S-Video in the morning.
