Pete,

I think that the only answer is to try both and see. Richer should help you= do this.

The point about Progressive scan is that it DOESN'T mean that there's more = information on the DVD, it just means that there's some image processing do= ne within the DVD player.

Now, it's more than a little likely that your plasma will ALSO have an imag= e processing capability (certainly, my CRT 32" W/S telly does!)

Which will be better? That in the DVD player, or that in the telly? Only a = demo will tell....

All

Whilst talking to RS about plasma screens, I got onto DVD players as my cur= rent (Sony) one is nearly 3 years old and can be exchanged for 50% of the o= riginal purchase price under the terms of the RS Supercare warranty.  = My old player didn't have component outs, hence why I'm looking to replace = it.

The guy in RS recommended the unit above - does anyone have any experience = of it?  It's got every possible output, and has PAL progressive scan, = which RS claim is the only model under =A3800 to have this.  Also has = DVD-Audio, Kodak photoCD and MP3, and they claim the picture is excellent -= all for =A3199 multi-region.

The other option would probably be the Pioneer DVD656A at =A3329, which has= SACD playback, but no progressive scan - does this really make such a big = difference on a plasma screen?

Pete
