Yes there is a progressive scan patcher for DVD-X that way you only patch it once then you have progressive scan on your dvds forever...

I use dvd-x and watch my dvd's in progressive, it's better. But i could never get the actual MS Dashboard to do progressive. I've tried Msxboxdash-xbe-Progresive-Patch.exe, didnt work. Any help would be great...

Good find, TVDave. It works a treat - great picture quality too, tons better than my lame progressive scan DVD player biggrin.gif

Respect to the clever hacker who figured this one out.

Thanks for the info dude

Just wanted to thank TVDave for this info.
You just made my day.  Xbox display on an Infocus X1 projector is awesome.
Are there more resources like this so that I can enable progressive output for Mame and other apps that typically do not support it?
Thanks again.

I don't think so cb31. But then again, I could be wrong - give it a try, it only takes a moment to patch the DVDX .xbe, and as long as you back it up first it should be save to try. Actually, I'm kinda curious now. I know there's no p-scan on scart normally but I'd like to know if this patch forces it. Give us a yell with the results if you decide yo give it a go.

It is my understanding that 720p is better than 1080i.  They are also starting to make 1080p televisions.

later,

use one of thses if you have a nice enough computer monitor, then you can have progressive scan on your comp. you'll still need a hdtv reciever if you wanna watch tv on it though.

what ive wanted here is a menu where u can choose progressive scan.
because if you dont have the hardware, you only get black screen

you can ofcourse make a link to a patched dash, but i think a menu in xbmp or evox would be better.
