As you can see from my sig below, I have a 3910 DVD player and an Optoma HD72i
I have the player connected to the projector on all three outputs (DVI, HDMI and component, using decent cables from Mark Grant and The Media Factory) although to be honest I havent tried the component properly as I assume (correct me if Im wrong) that the scaler in the DVD player (high end player) should do a better job than the scaler in the projector (budget projector) so I am outputting the image at 720p and have to projector set at native resolution.
I have set up the brightness and contrast using DVE and have a light controlled room.
I am noticing some noise on dark images on both DVI and HDMI, but the blacks seem a little better with the DVI but I do seem to get a bit of solarisation with the DVI that I dont appear to get when using HDMI.
Am I being over critical of the performance of the projector or is a perfect image possible with my setup with better calibration?
