Panny 53x54 follow up. (warning-cable discussion!)

4.232.21.115

Went to Circuit City from where I had ordered the Panny (online).

Salesman asked what kind of cables I was using for the 3 Y connection. At first I could not remember for sure if the guys who set it up had remembered to use the 3Y input for the DVD player, and not the composite in! Well, I remembered it was the component in, and I had used the standard RCA, yellow, red and white, knowing the red and white were intended for audio.
Salesman said that would not work for a progressive scan DVD picture, and that was why my movement artifacts were so prominent.

I scoffed (This Dude is going to try and sell me expensive cables! Huh!).
He did.
Fixed the problem.
Great picture. I know cables are a thorny issue here, and I am the BIGGEST cable skeptic of all; but I will say what I saw, and it proved me wrong. The Monster Cable Component Video cleared up any motion artifacts. Very happy with the picture.

DUI-51, but not too old to learn.
