after reading so many peoples comments I am confused
some say using the y pr pb inputs give the same quality as the Hdm
so whats the truth is it just sales advice to add a converting plug in card?
it would then take a 20 mtr cable to reach the projector more expence if it does not give a huge difference

I get a real great looking picture on blu-ray set to 1080I in the player ..
the picture on 1080P is not as good ? could the be the projectors setup in not correct
the player is 50/60z and set to 60 HZ and ntsc even though most of the disc are pal
as the sony at y prbb is 60HZ input memeory 9
how can one realy tell what the g70 is putting out ? it there a way to tell what resolution it is displaying

I was thinking of resetting this unit up agin as its been a few years.
Has anyone got a better way than using the dot screen on the mg focas as that is so hard to use on the blue .

I don't think so. In one case your using the G70's 12 year old internal YpRpB to RGB converter. This conversion has always been a problem and very few devices did it well. With a moome card your using the best RGB conversion possible, from the add

This product is a culmination of everything Moome has learnt over years of building DVI/HDMI input cards for CRT projectors. It is by far the highest end Sony card he has yet to offer with new features such as: Two 100% HDMI 1.3 compliant inputs for Deep Colour support, better discrete 14bit D/A converters, faster 1GHz output buffer, and better op-amps for the best image quality possible!
not to mention low end Gamma boost, critical for CRT

that's a problem, you need to move the blue ray player closer.

Is the player really outputting 1080p? I thought BR players scaled down the analog out.

I use the "EM" and sometimes 'H' patterns.
