In reply to:

And what in the heck is Faroudja processing?




It is a Decoding Engine, for processing film, video, graphics or mixed-mode content. Like anything else in HT, you get what you pay for and there are a ton of different processors out there. Some are good and some are junk. Faroudja is one of the best out there.

I have yet to buy a DVD player and not looked into this aspect of it. For me there are only 2 or 3 processors out there that are worth a dam.

.................and just because I know someone is going to ask, these are some of the ones I like:

Silicon Image
Faroudja
Genesis (But only on a few models)
