[mythtv-users] Projector connection jack options

Hi All,

My main frontend machine, which connects to my projector has DVI output 
(I think it's DVI-D).

My old (almost dead) projector (BenQ W100) has a DVI input, so that was 
strightforward.

The new projector that I'm getting (BenQ W1300) does not have a DVI 
input. It has:
HDMI 1 input jack
HDMI 2 input jack
USB Mini B input jack
COMPUTER PC input jack
RS-232 control port
COMPONENT input jacks
VIDEO input jack

I think that the 'Computer PC input jack' is a VGA connection.

Which should I be trying to connect to? Will a DVI-D to HDMI lead give 
me the best image?

The projector is 1080p if that helps.

Thanks,
Damian
