If I understand you right. You want to go from your DVD player straight to your TV with out your video going through your AV receiver. This is the only way I have had mine hooked up. I have never had any problems with the video not in sync with the audio. I just don't see the advantage of buying another set of component cables just to route the video through my reciever. But I'm very new at this too. I'm sure you will get more input from some one that knows more than I do (that's just about everyone).
