Another DVI-to-HDMI Thread
This is just to share my pleasant surprise after adding a dvi-hdmi cable to my system. I was using the stock three meter component cables that comcast provided with my HD cable box, and I replaced them with a Kimber DVI to HDMI cable.
I wasn't expecting much, but the picture was noticeably improved. Smoother and much improved color saturation. I watched the end of the Bears-Cardinals game, followed by Saving Private Ryan. I didn't really think that the picture could get better, but both looked incredible and undeniably better than before. There was less of the "blocking" artifacts that occur when the camera quickly pans over action(what's the tech term for that? I'm terrible with my videophile vocabulary).. which leads me to believe that perhaps the DVI output of the comcast box is just better implemented than the component output? fun stuff!
