One 'warning' though; with nvidia, you will most likely not be able to do 1920x1080i through DVI, many have tried and failed. ;-( (Obviously me being one of them..) (I'd very much be proven wrong, but so far, I have not heard about one single sole that has been able to do this)
Yesterday I ran 1080i60 with Nvidia GF6 6600GT and DVI. No problem, all HDTV titles and games played nice, but OS was WinXP (and no powerstrip -> default driver timings offered for HDTV by NVidia, driver implemented underscanning also worked fine).
I have also ran 1080i with Linux, GeForce4 Ti 4800 SE and DVI. But overscan on my projector was so large that I could not use computer via that so I changed to native 1:1 pixel mapping (1366x768). I can re-check my setup with 1080i and latest NVidia linux-driver.
Display is Sony VPL-HS10 projector, with 10m DVI cable.
Best regards, Jori

Yes, Windows does this fine for me as well.

Please do!!! What all people are getting with 6629, is an offset between the 2 interlaced frames by 10 pixels or so. Like a vertical shadow.
I am running VGA 1920x1080p to my projector instead, but I'm pretty sure the Faroudja FLI2300 deinterlaces better than the HTPC.
Let's continue by mail, this must not interest many people here ..
Thanks,

Well, I am also interested, if you continue by mail, could you CC to me, but I think the answer might interest others also ;-)
