In Reply to: PAL prgressive and HDTV help posted by Mark Anderson on November 24, 2002 at 03:26:06:
Or does it? Mark, what HDTV do you have? Are you in US?Your manual should state whether your set can display PAL signals. The only direct views I'm aware of that do this are the Sampo 34", the Loewe and the Monovision/Princeton Graphics TVs. Plasmas do PAL. FPs do PAL. I'm not aware of any RPs that do other than the fixed pixel displays like the Samsung DLPs.
If your set doesn't display PALi, I don't know that it will do PALp. You could get a Philips 963SA DVD player that, with a hack through the remote, will be all region and do both PALp AND/OR convert to NTSC if needed. The 963 is available in Europe and Asia now, coming out here in January. If your HTPC has a card that is PAL capable/converts that would be a great solution. I'm not going the HTPC route, so I don't know which cards are best for PAL or support PALp. For box solutions, I know the new Sage-Faroudja chip in the Philips 963 does support it, and 720p as well.
