Yeah, I saw one at Walmart for ~$49, and also saw an HDMI to DVI
converter cable (my now older WEGA hi-scan came equipped with a DVI
port that I've never used) for ~$45. I've wanted to look into a new
player that supports upscaling to 720p or 1080i but they only do it
via HDMI. Anyone run this conversion? and how well does it work?
Cheers.
