1) You might try setting the X1 to Native aspect mode for regular TV. This produces a smaller image and it may look sharper (no scaling). 2) It depends on your DVD player. Is it capable of Progressive Scan (480p) output? The X1 has Faroudja DCDi for deinterlacing, which may be better than...

It's too long when you realize you haven't gone to bed for several days in a row. But seriously, you can (in theory) use it continuously for days at a time as long as it is getting adequate cooling (clean the filters and don't block the vents).

Gordon, you or your friend might also find some useful details about the X1 in the draft FAQ I'm trying to pull together (see my .sig). It is a collection of information from several sources and still needs a lot of work, but it is already becoming a useful resource.
