First, let me say that without the forum, no answers would be forthcoming. Thank you for all your participation.
Now my problem. I have the EX-HD Box. I also have a VP 30 scaler, an Marquee 8500, Oppo 971 DVD Player, Toshiba A2 and Panasonic Blu-ray BD 10A Player. I understand, I think, the hook-up that Moome shows in his Instruction Document. However, I want to use my VP 30 as a switcher instead of the EX-HD Box. the Moome instructions show the 5-BNC cable from the EX-HD going straight to the projector. I have all my inputs from the players going into the VP 30. But I can't quite grasp what cable is used from the VP 30 to show that it's part of the loop. On the VP 30, there are RGBHV Input and Output. When it was hooked-up through component, I used RGBHV Input. Right now I'm not sure how to proceed hooking the EX-HD Box up. If someone could be good enough to explain what I need to complete the hook-up, I'd be very grateful.

A very good start would be to read through this Sticky Post HOOKING IT ALL UP: Composite, Component, RGBHV, DVI, HDMI?

It is call a sticky because it allways stays at the top of the CRT Projector forum (or in the top 5 or 6 items)

Thank you 9kids for answering so quick to my post. I've done CRT for the past going on six years and have hooked up components and all were very simple. I looked at all hook-up examples on Curt's Hook-Up page and the only one that comes close to my arrangement is Figure 4 at the start of the examples. The example is using a A/V Receiver as an HDMI switcher. My VP 30 also is an HDMI switcher if you will. All I really wanted to know is if I want to continue using the scaler, should I hook up a HDMI cable to the HDMI Out on the Vp 30, and then into what on the EXT-HD? The only thing that makes sense to me is hooking the HDMI Out of VP 30 into one of the HDMI Inputs on the EXT-HD. Anyways, thank you again.

How did you have the vp30 connected to the marquee? Assuming 5BNC from the vp30 to the projector, what you describe is correct:

source components to> VP30 VP30-Hdmi Out via hdmi> Moome EX-HD hmdi in Moome EX-HD via 5BNC to the Marquee

Thank you Mike P for answering my question on VP 30 Hook-Up to EXT-HD. Before the EXT-HD, when running HD component, I had the RGBHV into VP 30's RGBHV Input and BNC breakout cable to Marquee. So now that the RGBHV hook-up that I had been using before into the VP 30 now goes into the Moome Box, my question I believe has been answered. On the Moome Box, I would use HDMI 0 or 1. Specifically, I wanted to reassure myself that the only option I had was to use the EXT-HD's HDMI Input from the VP 30's HDMI Out. Now out to get some more HDMI cables and will try it out. Thanks again.
