There has to be some irony in the fact that after waiting months for a few JVC DLA-RS1 projectors, that I may be "stuck" with promises to purchase two machines that I can no longer use. In case you haven't gotten one from AVS forum (note that this wonderful place should be your first priority, as I would never step on their toes!), then you might want to email me here or better yet at sms@bee.net to see if they are still available by the coming week. Hope everyone is happy with their new projectors and also that many guys will be satisfied soon, as I see delivery on most has finally happened!

Wow, reviving this thread--what a "flash from the past." This one really helped get all the RS1 buzz going. JVC should give it an award.

Yep!
I recently bought an HD1 (RS1). After reading and reading about projectors. Yes, Its my first projector and I spend on it all I had >.<. It looks good but, I've a problem with it, altough. I'm using an ASUS 8600GT graphic card to feed the projector and I can't get the 1080p. 1080i and 720p works but 1080p not. I've tried the timings posted a few replies ago, but I get a partial color image and the rest black. I think the aswer is in the custom resolution pannel but I don't wan't mess with that more without more info. Is there any solution?

I'm using forceware 163.71. (and nvidia control pannel to change resolutions)

This is the video card (http://es.asus.com/products.aspx?l1=2&l2=6&l3=514&l4=0&model=1700&modelmenu=1).

Thanks for your time and merry christmas!

1080p should work fine with the default (non-custom) settings. I've used the RS-1 with an HTPC and it worked fine. Programs to set custom timings like powerstrip aren't really needed. I'm surprised that 1080i works and not 1080p because usually PC's have the opposite problems (progressive is easier to setup than interlaced).

One thing to check is the monitor type that is being selected when Windows boots and checks the video ID bits. If Windows doesn't think you have a 1080p compatible monitor (the RS-1) it will try to use lower resolution settings like 1080i and 720p.
