The 950 I have will only pass PLUGE at 480 over component. Once it is set to a HD mode (triggered by the use of HDMI), the blacks are crushed as are the whites. The player is useful for subtitle re-location, but I have found that most films in HD have their subtitles in the active picture area where they belong any way...

I don't understand that.. My 860 still passes PLUGE at 720p through HDMI..
The whites and blacks are unaffected, going from component to HDMI..

Maybe it has something to do with the fact that I'm also downscaling again at the projector..

I wasn't aware that most HD films have subtitles within the image area!!..I thought this was one of the bones of contention about HD, with all the postings about it recently..
