Did this exact same thing recently with my projector. I was using S-video then changed to VGA to Component cable. Made a HUGE difference!!! My cables had to be 50ft long. I never had a problem.

I'm planning on purchasing an Oppo DV-980H dvd player. Which connection is best for the audio: the optical digital or the 7.1 multi channel connections? I plan on hooking it up to a receiver that has the option for both. I've done a little research and from what I've read the multi channel...

I was just going to post the same exact question till I saw this. Just today I installed a 50ft VGA to Component cable from my projector to my Sony receiver. Well, I noticed those horizontal ghost lines going up the screen too! This is my set up: Component cables from HD Cable box to receiver...

It's the #9. Key - no pin. Well, that answers my question. Thanks! BUT. I've seen photos where all the pins are there. That's why I assumed it was missing one. Are there different kinds? Thanks again.

Hi everyone. Well, I recieved a VGA to Component cable today and upon inspecting it I noticed that one of the fifteen pins was missing. I tested it right away and it appears to be working. My question is am I not getting the full video quality without this pin? I mean it's there for a reason...

Well, just went to ebay and found some VGA/Component cables up to 100ft! Found some that have it in 35 to 50ft. Will remeasure tomorrow then order one. Wish me luck.

I would like to try the VGA/Component adapter, but the way we had to set up our projector it would be hard. We have a two story house so our living room is very tall. The projector is behind us on the ceiling of the dining room entryway witch is lower. So the S-video and rear surround speaker...

OK, well it looks really good. We've had it for about three years now and we're very happy with it. Thanks for all the info.

Well, this projector didn't come with component plugs. It only has s-video or composite video. But we are getting HD cable channels. While watching a local station, you can flip back and forth between the regular and HD version and see a huge difference. I would assume that if this projector was...

I own a Sharp XR-10S projector with a 100 inch screen. I know its not the top of the line, but I think it looks awesome! I have the HD cable box hooked up to a receiver then to the projector by S-video. Most digital cable channels look really good. DVDs and HD cable channels look great. So I...

Ouch! Run of the mill office projector? Well, someday I'll be able to get a "real" projector. But let me tell you, this one looks AWESOME! Watching DVDs or HD channels looks great. But anywho, thanks for the info. Appreciate it.

Great! Thanks.

Yes, the audio is coming out of a Sony STR-DG800 receiver.

Hi, I have a Sharp XR-10S projector hooked up to an HD cable box. Right now I'm using S-video and digital optical connections from the cable box to a Sony STR-DG800 receiver then to the projector by S-video. The cable box has DVI out and the receiver has HDMI in (for cable boxes). If I get a...

Hi, I have a Sharp XR-10S projector that's DTV/HDTV compatible. I have it hooked up to an HD cable box and the HD channels look great! My question is can I hook up a Blu-ray dvd player to it? I ask because I only have two options to hooking it up to a dvd player: S-video or that yellow video...

Thanks everyone. I understand now.

Well, when I go to the DVD menu if I select to watch the movie in Dolby 5.1 it plays fine. Color and sound. But if I select DTS then there's no sound and it's in black & white. The dvd player is completely wired to the receiver. I used s-video and coaxial (is that correct? white and red plugs)...

The receiver decodes the following: Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital EX, Dolby Pro Logic, Dolby Pro Logic II, Dolby Pro Logic IIX. DTS, DTS 96/24, DTS-ES, DTS Neo:6 I'm sure I have the cables right. Quess I'll wait and see wat I can do with he remote. Thanks.

Hi everyone. I purchased a Sony STR-DG800 Receiver and connected a Denon LA-2300 Laserdisc player and a JVC DVD player. This receiver decodes 5 Dolby Digital and 4 DTS signals, but when I try to play a disc or dvd with DTS I get no sound! AND the dvd is in black & white. Regular discs & dvds...
