[QUOTE="emphatic, post: 1009598, member: 24365"] I've gone through this guide today as I'm currently vacational leave from work. :D Here are my thoughts: When (like in my case) a user has a 720p display that can still show a 1080p signal, I think you're better off outputting a 1080p signal from your HTPC than a 720p one. Font readability isn't any worse IMHO, but more importantly, the HD standard has no 24hz compliance at 720p! [url]http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/High-definition_television[/url] This means that a user has a much bigger chance of getting a working 24hz signal on their HD-Ready TV than the non-standard 720p 24hz one. Edit: Never mind the question below, I misinterpreted something somehow. [S]I have a question concerning setting up audio - I prefer watching my DTS movies with DTS and not Stereo. When following the setup guide, I only get Stereo sound. :/ I'm going back to bitstreaming the digital sound formats.[/S] Thanks! Emph [/QUOTE]
