I am currently using my ps2 for the dvd player (until i can afford the rp82.) It's using s-video to the first input on the back of my pioneer sd533hd5.
My question is what is the best mode to set this tv while watching dvd's? I had thought that it would be full, and then let the dvd play in it's OAR but for some reason it just doesn't look right. It looks wider than it should. This is with 2.35:1 (I think that's what it was) DVD's. Should I be running DVD's in cinema wide or natural wide instead?
Second, how much of a jump in visual clarity should I notice once i go from this crappy console DVD player to the rp82 which would provide progressive scan through components? I was watching star wars EP 2 and spiderman and I wasn't blown away by the image but I'm not sure if I am just naturally expecting too much
