If I feed an RS35 with a Faroudja DVP-1080, how should I set frame interpolation?

Thread Starter 
Thanks largely to feedback and advice from this forum, a JVC RS35 is on its way to me soon via Jason.

I've been reading about the various frame interpolation (Clear Motion Drive), and it occurred to me that since I've been driving my projectors for years using a Faroudja DVP-1080 video processor (which accepts just about anything and spits out 1080p/60), I'm not sure how I should view the CMD options. Which course of action seems the best? Source material is primarily HT-PC Blu Rays @ 1080p, with some PS3 @ 1080p and Xbox @1080i and cable box @1080i as well. THe DVP-1080 does a great job converting 1080i to 1080p.

1) I could skip the DVP-1080 all together, and feed the projector directly from my Onkyo receiver's HDMI out

2) I could keep things as they are now (Onkyo to DVP-1080 to projector) and turn off CMD

3) I could try #1 or #2 with CMD on (low or high, etc.)

Any suggestions?

Thanks,
David

I would only use the FI for sports on cable. For Bluray, send 1080p24 bypassing the Faroudja and for normal cable, check to see whether the RS3 or the Faroudja does a better job at deinterlacing to 1080p60.

The DVP-1080 was good for it's time, but it's been made obsolete with all of the new VP's that perform per-pixel motion adaptive deinterlacing. You would be better off feeding 1080i direct into the RS35 and letting the Reon inside perform the conversion to 1080p60 (or 1080p24 for film sources).

Edit: For Blu-ray 1080p24 I'd also follow mrlittlejeans advice and send 1080p24 direct into the RS35.

Yeah, ditch the Faroudja.
