Progressive Scan


I am really loving HD on air and off air and want to improve my dvd situation - it is a pioneer elite non-progressive scan player. My question - is there a quality dvd progressive scan player that also records? I'm assuming it scans to 720p - thanks for your input.

My projector Sim2--along with MANY others convert progressive to 720.---I'm talking regular dvds---
I sense a 2 part question. I have Philips dvd recorder that is also a pretty mean player in its own right. What I'm saying is that the dvds you buy or rent will look pretty dam good--on a progressive player and on a good progressive player that also records;--as in much better than your standard interlaced player.
Thanks for the info - my wife wants to record and get as close as possible to the high def that has spoiled us. Since I'm the audiophile - I must keep the videophile happy ...if you know what I mean!

There are a number of scaling DVD players available with outputs beyond 480p, with the Momitsu V880 being most popular.

It will output any resolution you want. If you need 864p to keep the scan lines touching on your CRT projector it will do it.

You're never going to have the detail in an HD source, although decent DVD transfers can still look very good at 1.3 - 1.5 screen widths.
