Getting HD cable signal to Infocus X-1 projector

Thanks for your help.
I did get in touch with Infocus customer service and they suggested the VESA to component adaptor, which I have now ordered.
Hope it helps.

Yes, VESA to component adaptor...thats what I got from them (I could not remember, exactly what the adaptor cable was called). I set my Comcast hi-def box to 1080i and the picture looks very good.

I've connected the VESA to component adaptor and there is a slight improvement over the S-Video connection, although not real drastic.
Here's another question; I'm up to about 3,300 hours on the original bulb. Should I get another one for $300, or just get a new projector. I mean, this projector one was only about $900, after rebates, brand new.

Did you set your cable box for 1080i or 720p? Also, hi-def TV quality is better on some channels, than others.

Not all hi-Def is equal...to bad really.

I'm in the same boat as you regarding the X-1 lamp...I've had mine for around 6 years?, same lamp. (guess I should check the hours).

I'd like to pick up the Sanyo PLV-Z5. I set one up for someone a few months back...very good for the money!

The projector has a lamp usage tracker. You'll see it in the menu. I'm just wondering if the color wheel or something else will crap out right after I get a new bulb.
Do you think there are bulb upgrades that would improve the picture?
