Hi
Just found this on Avland, thought some of you may be interested. http://www.avland.co.uk/pioneer/dv868avi/index.htm
Looks like I will probably replace my DV88P with this.
Regards
Gus

Does that look like a gold finish? or is it silver?
If its silver then I want!

For some reason at the Heathrow hi-fi show, the Pioneer reps were talking about a retail price of £1200 on the 868 - so that price is quite a relief - the 868 at the show was silver and I thought the picture via HDMI to an HDE 504 50" display was really quite outstanding - hence the imminent appearance of my Samsung 935 (and Panasonic 6 pasma) on the classified forum! Interested to hear what others thought who saw this demonstration.

I wrote about it already in 9th September in my summary thread from the IFA Berlin. But no one took notice? 
It is in silver.

I thought it was going to have a DVI out? Shame

As I understand it, you can use an HDMI/DVI adapter at the TV end if you only have a DVI input (although you obviously won't be able to get the audio feed through DVI) - this is actually not so bad as the HDMI cable I saw is quite a bit thinner than a DVI cable.

Does that mean I could use the HDMI, with adaptor, to plug and play straight into the DVI input on my TW100 projector?

Planning on ordering one of these beauties.
Where can I buy a HDMI to DVI adaptor?

Hi,
You need to take care with HDMI and DVI. HDMI is encryted with HDCP, so your DVI input would need to be HDCP compliant. 7MAT - HDMI to DVI adapters don't appear to have been released yet.

Using the 868 with the PDA5002 will be a bit limited via DVI, the issue is the DVI input on that boards is limited to 480p Video input.  | |

Hi Tony,
I don't think it would take even a 480p signal if it is HDCP encryted (more than likely, I think).

this is perhaps a new (or old) thread... i get confused by DVI etc
I am planning to get a marantz 8400, which has DVI out, will I be able to just plug it into the back of my TW100 and enjoy digital to digital cinematic heaven
