PTAE1000 and HALO3

I have read in many places that Halo 3 is playing at some odd resolution around about 640p. I am therefore assuming that the 360 upscales it to 1080p before squirting it into the projector. My question is would I be better off sending it to tne projector at 540p or 720p and letting the Faroudja upscaler on board the ae1000 do all the work. I have to say it's looking stunning anyway with the 360 set to 1080 but would appreciate a more experienced point of view before I tinker

Why not just change the resolution on the 360 and see which setting you prefer?

Actually, PTAE1000 does not include a Faroudja scaler so you'd better to let your XBOX360 scale the picture.
