Well this may be a first,
Over the past several weeks I have been trying to wean myself off my HTPC and use My 200 disc DVD player and CrystalImage scaler with my NEC projector that I just got.
I just wanted a break from tweaking, always upgrading (even when I didn't need to) ect.
Well after 1.5 years my DVD player started freaking out, I then had to switch the DVD to my HTPC with PowerDVD XP and M-Audio Delta Dio card. The movie played smooth without a hic-up and look great on the HTPC.
I think this may be a first when an HTPC rescued the night from a hardware DVD player and scaler.

If anyone wonder why I have both its that the scaler actually looks very good and the whole family can use it for TV, VCR, and DVDs without having to mess with the HTPC.
