I just purchased a Denon AVR 2106 and a Denon 1920 DVD. Question is this, I have the option of hooking up the DVD two ways to my Samsung DLP. Which is the best route to go and are there advantages to either?
1) Video by HDMI direct to TV and audio using a Digital Coax to my receiver.
2) Component from DVD to TV and audio the same.
I swear I keep reading that component is BETTER than HDMI as far as picture quality. I can't believe that personally. And it says in the manual that if I use HDMI for the video connection, signals are output in interlace versus progressive. I thought progressive was much better so why would the supposed better connection be limited to interlace output?Secondly, if I use HDMI to the TV and use the Digital Coax to my receiver, this should have no limitations on my audio would it?
HELP PLEASE I'm getting confused and frustrated.
