Hi all,
Forgive me for any mistakes/repeated queeries as im new to the forum. I have been following this thread and researching the KDFE50A12 For around 2 weeks, I have had 2 demos in Comet and 1 in the Lincoln Sony Centre of both HD and RGB material; I like the looks, sound, and price of the TV in question, the picture quality seems great to me but admittedly I am an amateur in the AV world (Current set is a Panasonic 32 with a £50 Sony DVD player) I am 90% sure the KDFE50A12 is the set to start me off in the AV world. If I can get these questions sorted I am hoping to buy it tomorrow.
1.Is it possible to play DVDs in HD? Is there a method of up-rating them whilst playing through a pc or is this is not possible as the data is simply not there in the first place (if you know what I mean). Can this be done through the DVP-NS92V DVD player?
2.I have a high spec silent PC with a 9800 pro GC, if I were to link this to the TV using the DVI out would the image fill the screen/ be displayed at the correct resolution/native res of the TV? Would I have to apply a patch/driver? And will doing this damage the TV
3.The TV comes with a VGA input, I know this is analog but to me it just seems mad that sony did not make this DVI, is there any particular reason?
Any information on these questions would be great and assist in helping me get a good setup. Again, apologies for repeated questions/questions in the wrong forum but this forum seems to be clued up on all areas of AV .
Many thanks
Steve
