I'm looking at upgrading my DVD player to progressive scan and have narrowed down to Yammy or Oppo.

I am connecting to Panny TH-42PHD9UK via component or HDMI (Oppo only 480i via HDMI?)

Which one and why?


Thanks

The Oppo 970 does 480i, 480p, 720p and 1080i over HDMI.

As to which: I'm not familiar with the Yamaha. I have two Oppos which I like, but have never demoed the 970.
