I have a 50" Samsung DLP HDTV, 1080p version. Myth connection via
HDMI-DVI cable. Absolutely beutiful picture, no problems at all. I beleive they say you cannot connect a PC to the HDMI is becaus it will not work as a PC display because of overscanning, but itworks perfectly well for a Myth display, I have mythfrontend running in a slightly smaller XxY, but I am using standard mode lines otherwise.

Brian Long:<br>> Does anyone run a Samsung 720p DLP that could offer suggestions?<br>> Should I buy the $15 DVI-HDMI cable from <a href="http://Monoprice.com">Monoprice.com</a> and give it a whirl?<br><br>I asked local Samsung helpdesk about connecting Samsung LCD TV's to computers,
<br>and they said that i shouldn't try it via HDMI, as it will display only black<br>screen (maybe because it requires HDCP?). Try to search for it in manual, if<br>it supports PC connection via HDMI (i seen this notice in manual of Samsung
<br>LCD TV).<br><br>PS: This was a reason why i bought LG LCD TV (they even had a dedicated HDMI<br>port with DVI label).<br><br>--<br>Frantisek Augusztin<br><a href="mailto:frantisek@augusztin.com">frantisek@augusztin.com
