2 Component into 1 adaptor ??

[Moonlight]

Hi
I have a Philips Crt which only has 1 set of usable AV1 component inputs as the other 2 are 480p. I currently have a PVR connected to these and need to connect my DVD player. Is there an adaptor that allows me to connect both into the one set of inputs? Selby has a fancy one for around $140 but as I have 2 of these setups I'm looking for a cheaper type.
I have so far avoided connecting them to the receiver first, but would this solve the problem and allow one output from the receiver be connected to the one set of workable inputs on the back of the TV - and therefore able to switch between them using the receiver remote?
The CRT's are Philips 8808 (2003) Receivers Onkyo 503 & 574 models.
Cheers

I picked up, at my local Wal-Mart, a four-way switch made by Philips for about $20. It doesn't show on their web site but I saw it hanging there a few weeks ago. It's big*, klunky, and ugly but it does work.

*With all those RCA jacks it's gotta be fairly large.

[EDIT] I found it at K-mart, albiet a bit more expensive.

Hi Mark
I noticed you jumped on board pretty quickly to help out :-D Thanks
Hmm...Walmart ? do they deliver to us downunder in Australia?
Big, clunky and ugly....I'm single so I'll resist the temptation of a wife joke there ;-P
I haven't had a good look around yet and posted here to get some tips forgetting that your mostly in the US/Canada. I'm new here and don't know how many Aussies hang out around here on Audioholics?
Cheers

Dunno about Oz or who/how many posters are from down there. That's why it helps everyone to indicate where they are from in their profile so advice can be tailored to that locale. We generally assume, unless otherwise indicated, that posters are from NA

But Philips is an international company and now that you know this product exists, you might want to do some searches for that product from a local supplier.

So, I guess you'[re just going into spring/summer about now, eh?

We do have K-Mart so I'll check them out along with some other electronics stores
..and yeah having a pretty hot Spring and into Summer in a couple of weeks. It's been in the mid 90's for a while and close to a record.

Do you have a Radio Shack? This is what I have used in the past. Check link?
This is 4 in 1 out.

Hi Walter
Yes, we do have Radio Shack. This unit is similar to the one recommended by a supplier here for around $140 (as mentioned above) although a lot cheaper. It may be what I end up getting but a simple plug like a 'double adaptor' should do it.
