Cabling or Video Processor Dilema

[samhain]

I am commencing my garage conversion but I have a bit of a headache trying to decide whats best for normal viewing.

I havent picked a projector yet but lets assume I pick one with HDMI, Component and VGA input.

The projector will need a cable about 8m long with potential for 1080p but definately 720p. Running an HDMI cable, Component cable, VGA cable over 8 metres is potentially very costly and with no video processing to help the signal along it will be a basic signal that the projector will receive.

Or......have one HDMI going to the projector but running Sky HD, HD-DVD, etc through a video processor like V30, an expensive add on but would I see a noticable difference in PQ plus save a bit of cash, maybe a few hundred quid on not needing to buy more cables.


Doh!!!!!!!!!!

Erm, Why not just get an Amp to handle switching inputs (single output to projector) and then you have audio covered too?

Thanks but my Denon amp is too good to give up at this stage.
