In Reply to: HDMI or Component Video - Which is Better? posted by JerryS on November 15, 2005 at 07:42:20:
If you have a digital video source, then an HDMI connection should be better. This would result in an all-digital system: source, transmission path and display. There would be no conversion/reconversion to the analog domain (as with a DVD player and component output), and reduces the chances of creating "digital artifacts".
Follow Ups:
I tried the HDMI rather than my components cables to hook my DVD to my digital TV, and the results were horrible. I had posterization artifacts all over the screen. I was very disappointed and went back to my component cables.

Sorry to hear of your disapointment.I have to admit that I have not tried HDMI since my system does support it. My hedged posting was based on this DVD player article at Projector Central:
http://www.projectorcentral.com/oppo_opdv971h_dvd_player.htmCould you tell us what combination of DVD player and display that you have that does not work well with HDMI? What resolutions were the player and display setup for?

If you have dual HDMI inputs on your TV check the manual as to which port ro use for which equipment. I have an LG Electr. DLP TV and it recommends HDMI port 1 for the DVD player.
