Best setup for xvid/divx on projector

KiNETiK · 13 Feb 2006 at 20:51

Hey guys,
I have a HD projector which I currently use for watchin movies, tele, gaming etc.. I want to be able to move my projector into the living room from time to time to watch a film or 2 (divx/xvid) and dont wish to lug my PC through each time in order to do so.
Soo.. Whats the best option to go for, I was thinking of getting a cheap DVD divx player but my mate who also has a projector said the quality is not as good as when he connects the projector up to his pc and watches the film that way. So can anyone recommend me a good option that isnt too expensive and wont see a loss in quality over my pc?
Cheers

Well yes hd films would be ideal but until they become more main stream and I have divx to play then they are *** i will be using, along with dvds

I will l look intgo the snazio cheers

The snazio looks really nice, quite pricey though but certainly very tempting.. Does anyone know of any other dvd/divx players with dvi output?

I already have a bluetooth keyboard and mouse but I would probably need a 15 metre DVI cable

Is that even possible! And then what about sound, turn the stereo in the other room up a few more levels

I'm just not convinced by a load of long cables trailing all over the house, might look a bit messy. Something like the snazio would be a lot neater..

The best I have seen on my projector so far was some WMV-HD files and they did look superb. I would love to see some proper HD movies on it thats for sure

What would you recommend, the HD trailer of terminator 2 looked lovely. Might get that
