Aside from the HD format capable receiver, how about the TV / projector itself? HD tuners are not too expensive and over-the-air HDTV broadcasts are FREE - and incredible to watch! Far superior to any DVD you have ever seen. Of course your TV / projector will need to accommodate the HD resolution in order to benefit from the HD broadcasts. Just a thought.

The BarcoGraphics 808/808s can display any DTV/HDTV resolution, maxxing out at 1600x1200, and a horizontal maximum of 110KHz. I'm considering a HDTV tuner for my MythTV box, I've got my eye on that unit that ignores the broadcast flag...

Not that the broadcasters are using it yet (that I know of) but it would be nice to get a HD tuner that ignores the brodcast flag before it becomes an issue. What brand / models are you looking at? Not sure how my Samsung HD tuner deals with the broadcast flag.BTW, I have one of the orignal Sony DVD players with macrovision defeat by simply moving some switches inside. It works out great for copying my DVD's to VHS so I can loan the tapes out w/o fear of someone scratching my DVD. (Especially useful when loaning the videos out to kids)
