Hey guys,
I've got two systems that I use for my HT, and have a quality question:
1) Panasonic non-Progressive scan DVD player with S-Video out
2) HTPC w/ "Powered by ATI" Radeon 8500 with Composite out.
So, I've just moved up to a projector (PT-L300U), and am going to be upgrading cabling to Component for the DVD, or DVI for the PC.
As it stands, using the DVD players composite looks 1000 times better than the computers composite playing the same movie. Colors look very washed out from the computer. However, it looks good on the monitor. I'm debating on how the DVI will look. If it would look good, I'd like to get a DVI cable and use the computer for Divx, VCD, DVD, etc. If not, I'll get component and use the DVD player and deal with composite for DivX for now.
Does anyone think I will have the same quality issues from the vid card using the DVI output?
