I tried the settings and procedure you suggested and when I use the HDMI cable the ONLY setting that seems to work is 480p. On anything higher resolution than this I get a screen full of video noise that is dominated by a green color (and nothing is visible in terms of image). This is the same result for anything above 480p.

According to the Sharp manual (this is their new top-of-the-line DLP projector), it does output 1080p and this is what I see using the component cable (but, as you mentioned, only 1080i for movies).

The only minor note is that for the HDMI input they refer to it as "video only" (which makes sense given that it is a DLP projector and not a television or RPTV).

Might this be a problem with my cable? (I have a 15' Van den Hul HDMI cable)

Any other suggestions?

Thanks so much in advance.

best, Chris
