[QUOTE="Brad Weber, post: 15240, member: 114"] Re: Video input formats to include Some devices will tell you what output formats they support. What the actual resolution is for a disc may be content dependent, unless the device includes upscaling to a defined resolution. I think this may depend upon what market you look at. I wouldn't be surprised to see DVI rule in the computer market, although the small size of the HDMI and mini-HDMI ports is an advantage with laptops. However, in consumer products I think HDMI rules right now and will until the next new thing comes out. For example, I see many new smartphones with some form of HDMI output but few or none with DVI outputs. And look at all the Blu-Ray players, AV receivers, etc. that support HDMI connectivity but that have no DVI connectivity. Speaking of consumer devices, that is something to think about in terms of cable boxes, Blu-Ray players, etc. as the warranties for some consumer devices specifically exclude professional, commercial or industrial use and are pretty much restricted to residential or personal use. If you have to support the system it may be worth looking at the related warranties to verify if such limitations may be applicable. [/QUOTE]
