Intro:
I'm sure there are a few folks out there that have a similar set-up to mine. I have a tv with 1 hdmi input, no dvi. My receiver is about 2 years old and only has component switching. I have the dish 942 connected through hdmi and my upconverting denon dvd player has hdmi/dvi output but it running through my receiver via component since I only have 1 hdmi input.
I was watching Saw 2 last night which seemed to be awfully green. Probably just the way it was shot since I havent noticed this on other movies. Then on a whim, after the movie was over, I decided to switch the video feed on the 942 and the dvd player. Basically I was trying to notice a big difference in the dvd video quality. To my surprise, the pq was improved in my opinion via component from the 942. Of course the settings were different since there was an inherited switch on the tv input. But I even leveled all the settings the same and still thought the pq was better with component. How is this possible? My wife even noticed a difference in the flesh tones and the minute details and she doesn't give a crap about this stuff- and no I didn't lead her in any way.
Just thought I would ask if any one has any input.
