What DVD Players use Faroudja's advanced DCDi™ de-interlacer

Title says it all. Thanks.

Before you ask - DCDi ensures smooth, natural-looking DVD picture quality by eliminating the jagged edges and other artifacts that can occur when film-based images are converted to video

For starters:

Samsung HD-931 (on the DVI output only, not component)
Denon 5900
Denon 910
Zenith DVB318 (the current hot one for upconverting to 1080i over component)
Some Yamaha models

Discontinued, but maybe you can find somewhere:
Panasonic XP-30, RP82, et al
Denon 1600


One minor correction: DCDi is designed for video based material, not film based converted to video. The DCDi will be superior if you watch a lot of video based DVDs like sitcoms. From www.dcdi-video.com:
"DCDi is a video mode algorithm that stands for Directional Correlation Deinterlacing. It was designed for video based material like fast-paced sporting events."

Add the Philips Q50 Matchline to the list, even though it's "said" to be discontinued. I have this and I love it!

Panasonic CP-72 has the DCDI, but the dvd player is long discontinued.
My X1 projector has the DCDI though its Svideo port and the new Harmon Kardon Receiver AVR 7300 will have the new DCDI 2301 built in.
