[QUOTE="SiLenTYL, post: 38242, member: 10288"] yes exactly Brocklander.. i understand that HD content on a PC running windows Vista will be downscaled to dvd resolution...which is a pity..im not sure exactly when HDCP enabled graphics card will be released, but im guiessing it will have to be soon atm, im running some 1080i movies on my ol 68cm CRT TV, using composite(lol) ...as nVidia have screwed with the whole component-out issue...i would be getting a HD resolution on my TV(which is a hell of a lot better than 720x576)..but due to nVidias crappy drivers, my settings are lost, not used or simply decide not to work at the drop of a hat! ive tried reverting to old drivers, but then some other features wont work..like the nVidia PureVideo decoder, which i use everyday for TV :( and im not reverting to an older version of that *sigh* if u plan to play high definition content ( HD-DVD's, Blu-Ray, recorded videos, trailers etc) on a TV, then get yourself a proper HDCP enabled TV, and wait till u can upgrade your TV-out card to one that supports it also.....otherwise u'll be getting DVD resolution only when u watch your HD movies [/QUOTE]
