What 1080P upscaling dvd players support HDMI to DVI-D?
I have a Pioneer Dv-400V-K and am going HDMI out into the DVI-D port of a panasonic projector. The pioneer does not support the type of cable connection and will only allow me a 480P output on the projector. The projector, a PT-DW5100U, is capable of supporting 1080P input. According to your projector’s specs, it does support HDCP, so copy protection should not be an issue. HDMI is also backwards compatible with DVI, so it should work just fine. Looks like some sort of HDMI compatibility issue. I suggest you look for a firmware upgrade for both the projector and/or the player. Last resort, call Panasonic support, they should be able to help you. Your setup should work. However, if it does not work, it is not a big loss. The projector itself can scale the input signal as needed. Its actual native resolution is 1,280 x 768 pixels, so forcing a 1080p input makes no sense (it will scale it back to 720p). For best image: try 480i (the projector does all the upsacling/deinterlacing) and 720p
