So It Is Up To The Studios "The studios are divided over whether to require such down-conversion and are likely to follow separate policies." Sounds like it is time to start writing calling the studios to be sure they understand that if they choose to activate the flag so those of us with...

Hi Robert, Your page on the Toshiba says: "So when you play any of your SD DVD's with your HD-A1 and HD-XA1 you will enjoy your choice of 720p or 1080i resolution through the built-in up-converting circuitry and HDMI output." To clarify, the upconverting to 1080i will also take place over...

Robert, Is this AVS Forum thead correct? Is the Toshiba really going to give us 1080i on component out or is this just an ugly rumor? How about for upconvert? If both are happening I will sign up for one! http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?t=630904

You will only get the up conversion and the HD DVD full resolution on the HDMI output. The component outputs 480, so those of us with component only inputs on our HDTVs will not get any advantage from the HD DVD players. We can go HDMI to DVI and then to component, but if the signal has HDCP...

Component Input Only Robert, I would love to get one of your HD DVD units! My WS65905 only has component inputs. Any way to go from the HDMI output of the Toshiba to component in and be able to view the HD DVD in full HD?

Email To Charlie Dear Charlie, I really like the upgrade path plan you talked about last night, I will be upgrading my 942 and 2 811s as soon as the rebate becomes effective. I must say however that the PQ of your HD Charlie Chat was lousy! I did not spend 5K on a HDTV and over 100.00 a...

Netflix? Which format will Netflix go to, one of the other or both?

Get the plan, I have had two 99.00 service calls in the last year due to hurricane damage, which with the plan only cost me 29.00 each for total savings of 140.00. So far, even at 5.99 a month, I am ahead of the game.

How do you find out if your locals come from the 61.5 location? I am in Miami, FL?

They were to me, less than 24 hours and I am already into withdrawals, can hardly wait till I get Dish in 2 weeks with the 10 Voom channels!

Robert, Is the ED display on your display wall the RU42PX11?
