Re: HTDV

Sorry for the newbie questions, but what is macrovision?  Do you mean that 
resolution of output from DVD is limited?  I don't have an HDTV (yet) so I 
don't know much about how they work.  If I hook up a progressive scan DVD 
player to an HDTV system, do I get increased resolution, or just no 
interlacing?  What is the input to the HDTV, standard RCA jacks, or does 
it require something else, like s-video?

This is all a bit confusing, is there a good HDTV faq around?
