.... if I have an HDTV with no HDMI port, I can't use HD-DVD or Blu-Ray at
it's full res because of copy-protection? Do the movies on the shelves have this feature enabled? |

... if I have an HDTV with no HDMI port, I can't use HD-DVD or Blu-Ray at it's full res because of copy-protection? If you only have component inputs, yes that's right if the feature is enabled on a particular disc. Here's what I said about this in June: http://groups.google.com/group/alt.h...e=source&hl=en Do the movies on the shelves have this feature enabled? I don't know because I refuse to invest in either format until the format war is over. Maybe other posters know. My guess is it isn't enabled on the few releases out there yet or it's very rare. whosbest54 -- The flamewars are over...if you want it.

The copy protection is not currently enabled on any released titles and
likely won't be for some time, My HD-A1 has a sweet picture through both HDMI/DVI and Component.

Do the movies on the shelves have this feature enabled? Depends on when Now... sure, component is enabled on all HD/BR discs Future... non-hdmi will be resolution limited on HD/BR discs, depending solely on Hollywood's paranoia |
