Gonk,
No wonder everyone here holds you in such high esteem. Thanks for your reply.
I'll ask your *opinion* on this, and accept your answer as that...
I have an Infocus 5700 front projector. It has the TI Matterhorn chip, 1024 x 576 (at 16:9) display (ie, not true HD), and a Faroudja DCDI processor (I can give you a link to the specs if you wish).
1. I've heard different opinions about which of the following would be better:
A) using a newer (than what I have with RGB outs) DVD player that scales the DVD to 480P and has a DVI output or
B) using my current setup and letting the Faroudja scaler upconvert the signal. The Bravo D2 from Vizio is the only one I seriously considered.
Part of the answer would seem to be whether or not the DVD player has a better scaler than the projector. The other part would seem to be that a DVI output from the DVD player *should* be more desirable than analog RGB outs.
