In Reply to: Panasonic RP82: a second and third non-technical opinion posted by cfraser on August 22, 2002 at 15:22:47:
For reasons to lengthy to explain here but having to do with the compromises and reconstitution required in the component video standard, players with VGA-RGB out seem (universally, in my experience) to have no chroma bug. I have not played with Scart out, but I hear they are also bug free.This is even true of the cheaper Chinese imports (Daewoo, for example), but also for the more expensive players (Nintaus {Faroudja chip AND VGA out}), and super expensive players (Camelot).
Most of these are hard to find, and the liklihood of VGA-RGB out becoming common is very low. (Resistance from the movie lobby, exactly because of the quality of the output. Fortunately, the Chinese don't seem to care. The players are hard to get but have a devoted following.)
