Is there a big difference in dvd and tvout using component to 1080i versus vga out to same tv at 480p. I have a mitsubshi that is limited to 640 by 480 on its vga port. It can do 1080i on its dtv component inputs. I am toying with getting a transcoder and I component switch but I have alread spent a ton of money and I don't think I an get another $400 by my CFO(translated my wife).
I know the OS would benifit greatly for the increased resolution but am not sure of how it will affect tvout and dvd picture quality. Please don't be shy chime in I am fairly new to this and I am in need of help.
