Does progressive scan matter on a 3-chip DLP projector? (The question
might equally apply to a 3 panel LCD but 3-chip DLP is what I have.) Isn't
the picture there all the time, unlike a CRT? If progressive scan means
the player gathers up the entire interlaced frame in memory then spits it
out in its entirety I'm not sure that it would matter when using a display
technology that basically does the same thing by its very nature.
I'm asking because I just purchased the Oppo player which does not do
progressive scan on the component analog outputs. And all the superlatives
in the reviews apply to the DVI output only. My projector (VistagraphX
2500) doesn't have a digital input. If it mattered I could spring for a
converter box but that'll cost as much as the player. The projector will
be superceded eventually anyway. But I'd like to know how much difference
it actually makes.
