Yes, it does.

I picked up the TWC (NYC) Pioneer HDTV box yesterday and connected it via DVI. HDTV picture quality is stunning to very good depending on the channel or broadcast. Now, if I can find a way to get rid of the black side bars on some of the HDTV broadcast channels, I'd be a happy camper. BTW, this is a large box at least compared to the SA digital cable box the PIO replaced.

Based on the folks at AVS Forum, if you have a DVI capaple DVD player with upsampling, use the DVI input for DVD. Apparently, upsampling DVD video to 1080i via DVI produces a stunning picture and far superior to component. With regard to cable broadcasts, some prefer the hi-def picture via component but I haven't read of dramatic differences between the connections.
