Re: scaler cord question. Maybe I would be able to watch HD-DVD quality


Yes I could update some. The Transcoder works very nice. I can input the VGA into the scaler fine but it is pass though so I loose the video adjustments. I took back the Toshiba A30 because I need video adjustments for my low lumen projector. I don't want to push the projector to much because it begins to oversaturate the image and I loose resolution. I have a Toshiba XA2 on order that will allow me adjust the picture much like I do with my scaler for the DVD up-conversion. I picked up some decent quality RCA cables for the lossless audio as well.

Here is what my image looked like with the A30.


No kelvin adjustments made to the NEC6PG+ CRT projector. It is a 106" 16X9 High Power screen.

Edit: brightness and contrast way up. Notice the spotting. I don't really notice that when watching the movie but the new player may help that.


After some kelvin adjustments made to the projector. The lines become blurry when the projector is ran to hard. It also makes worse other problems related to not having liquid cooled CRT tubes.






I should be able to correct the picture with adjustments much like I did with my DVD player.

I am really excited the transcoder has things working.

Edit: I watched the entire Matrix trilogy the other day.

I will update again later.
