How do you connect a Sony VPL-FX50 projector to a home DVD player or digital cable box?

[Edit]

Answer

The Sony VPL-FX50 has composite, component and DVI inputs. A DVD player or cable receiver will almost certainly have a composite output. Most have a component output although newer models will have an HDMI interface replacing analog component outputs.

An HDMI - DVI cable may work but copy protection encoding on the DVD / cable receiver output might cause problems. If that is the case, it will need to use one of the analog inputs. The analog links tend to be standard definition; composite certainly is only standard definition and the analog component may also be only SD. You will need to check the output of the player to find out.

Perhaps someone might be able to add more information on copy protection systems using DVI inputs. It's not an area that I know much about I'm afraid.
