I would like to know the SIMPLEST (No HTPC) way to connect the video to the NEC LT150 using the following:
1- DTC-100 HDTV Satelitte Receiver (VGA Output)
2- Denon Non-Progressive DVD Player (Pr Pb Y - RCA Outputs)
3- S-VHS (S-Video Output)
I have an excellent picture using VGA direct from DTC-100 to LT150. It compares to a calibrated JVC G11 to my uncalibrated lens corrected eyes.
S-Video cable from the DVD Player, S-VHS and Regular Satellite are no where near as good as it was to a 4 year old Vidikron D-300 300 lumen projector. The contrast and colors are great but the FOCUS is close but not close enough.
From what I have researched on this forum that I need a Breakout Cable (maybe 2), some sort of BLACK BOX with INPUTS for VGA from the DTC-100 and RCA cables from the Pr Pb Y from the DVD Player.
To further complicate this am using a S-VHS Player and another Satellite Receiver with S-Video outputs.
Is there a way to do what I want without having to manually switch an A-B switch on the Black Box?
Is there a Scaler, Doubler or combo (for under $1200) that will do all the above(without the Black Box)and display a picture as good as my old LCD Projector with no doubler or scaler for DVD, S-VHS and non HDTV Satellite.
Would appreciate any precise comments and answers with model numbers and sources.
Understand, I would like to make this as close to "Plug and Play" as possible.
I realize this might have been placed in the Video Processor section but think my questions are too broad.
