HDMI vDMI for me only has to do with audio input to the TV as all are coupled i.e. compnent has an audio; DVI has a stupid earphone like jack that goes with it so I need an RCA to this jack (3.5 mm or something) to hear sound on TV speakers. Gimmick or no HDMI would solve this on this otherwise fantastic Sharp LCD.
Your original post only noted video, nothing about audiojwcool said:
. DVI has no audio specification, so its Sharp that decided to use a "stupid earphone like jack" for audio instead of the more popular RCA phono plug.And now on to others more thankful and willing to learn...

Sharp 45" LCD
Panel accepts 1080p, but receiver box only takes 1080i and scales up
I use DVI and component, but right now my STB keeps complaining my TV isnt responding to DHCP requests. I don't know if it the STB, cable, or TV, but a replacement TV is on the way so I will wait until then to verify.

I was originally using DVI with the cable supplied by the voom installer, but after reading some of the posts in this newsgroup I decided to try the component to see if I could notice a difference for myself. I unplugged my DVD player and used those cables to make the connection, and noticed a definite improvement. I don’t know if that means that the DVI cable supplied is of poor quality or if the component is a better connection, but now I’m tempted to go out and pick up a second set of component cables.
I have a Toshiba 57H93, and luckily it has two set of high-definition component inputs, so I wont have to choose between voom or my DVD. I have the display format set to 1080i

Thanks for the input, but I did notice something else. Since day one, every time I turned on my TV and then the voom box, the picture would come in and then almost immediately the picture would go away and the screen would flicker for about 15-20 seconds. I just assumed this was normal, but after trying the component connection, I noticed that the picture comes on immediately.
Would you know if this a problem with my TV, the voom box, or the DVI connection?
Can't answer that question would never go to DVI Have 2 TV's and both don't work as well as Component: you guess is as good as mine. but: if you go VGA you'll see a big improvement, all LCD's and Plasmas work best under VGA, " computer type input. " but don't take what I say to the Bank Try all for your system. what work's best for one might not be the best for all. with HD.Voom4Me said:
