Rookie question to be sure, but how much of a PQ hit am I going to take in going from HDMI to VGA input.


Thanks.

Depends on the TV displaying your signal. On my TV, the image quality is MUCH better via VGA input than it is HDMI input. Not sure why, but that's the fact. You should try it with both inputs and see which one works better for you.

I had a 3 yr. old Sammy DLP and it accepted DVI via XP without any problems. Great PQ. New Sammy DLP and Vista = problems. I'll give VGA a try as I've already got a cable.


Thanks for the advice.

The problem could be that the video drivers for Vista are pretty limited in their functionality so far, from what I've heard.


As for which is better it depends on the display. If it's possible to feed the display it's native resolution with 1:1 pixel mapping, DVI/HDMI will probably be best. (It definitely is on my Mits DLP).
