Hi,
The video inputs (composite, svideo, component, and to some degree HDMI)
are so that the receiver can also switch content for you.
Basically it intelligently sends the video to the TV and the audio to
the speakers based off of what input you pick.

. It is in pristine condition. I am only using it as a headphone amp
for my TV. This 5.1 A/V receiver has plug ins for VHS, DVD with yellow
RCA composite video plug ins but why video ... why does it have
composite video plug ins on a audio receiver ?... I don't get it?
