Or you may now be viewing at a higher resolution than the source. While conversion quality will come into play, you now have a display that is capable of showing what's "wrong" with the signal.
Another example is standard def satellite, like DirecTV. Looked very good on CRT TV's, even very good TVs. But connect the same signal to a high resolution display, and all the compression artifacts were easy to see. Go back to CRT, and it still looked good... although now the viewer was educated in what to look for, and there was indeed evidence to see.
You could audition some higher-quality A-D converters, but only you can decide if it's worth the expense. Line doubling, dropout compensation and chroma noise reduction can help, (like on a Panasonic 7750 deck) because it gives the converter a signal with fewer problems to accommodate. Your projector may have line-doubling, too.
