I was happy to see this thread here, I was about to start something very similar.
I am thinking of putting together an HTPC to mainly use as a dvd player. I have a Sanyo Z1 projetor, with a native resolution of 964x544. the Z1 does not have a DVI connector, just a vga.
Now I am an uber computer nerd, but havent played much in the HTPC arena, so have a few questions. Its my understanding that I can force my video card to output 964x544, to match the native resolution of my projector. Now will this look any better than say an average everyday progressive dvd player? I am using a pioneer non-progressive right now, and I can either replace this w/ a progressive unit, or go w/ an HTPC.
Any input on this would be appreciated....was it saturn who has one hooked up to his X1?
