My TV doesn't have an HDMI input, but it does have DVI. Can I use that instead?
V+ Faq - Cable ForumYes, but you'll need a HDMI to DVI cable or adapter. You may be able to blag one off the installer - tea and biccies go down well.

No, when you enable one the others get disabled - that's because the hardware isn't very good at doing both HD and SD at the same time. See similar questions...
