Does the Zenith DVB318 use the Faroudja chipset?

How about LG LST-3510A?

 

[Don_Berg]

Yes the Zenith has Faroudja, the LST-3510A does not. However the zenith is sold out now until late July-early August and reports are that at that time it will have feature changes such as no more 1080i upconvert capability on component video output.

 

[Robbie_L]

Much appreciated. When and why is zenith taking 1080i out of the component outs?

 

[Don_Berg]

Because of pressure from the studios, they did to Liteon as well months ago.
