The problem with a line doubler and quadrupler is a concern in this media but if you are going to use a computer to assist in your HT then my suggestion is to use the Creative Labs Encore DVD (had one but sold it to a friend so he could get into DVDs) since it has an automatic line quad for DVD playback thru SVGA cable.

The reason I was checking for line quads was for normal TV viewing or VCR (for those programs we record) as I thought DVD playback problems were minimal. The only reason I suggested away from LCDs was that on the ones I checked upon (NEC, Sharp, and a few others) I noticed pixel drags on sudden rapid movement scenes (same with the flat plasma screens). The thing I found strange is that most people didn't notice this (not even the person doing a demo at the convention I was at, though among about 20 people at this booth just 2 others and I noticed this). I know at least for myself this was less acceptable that having a cleaner player back on a direct view.
