The hope about this in my heart will never die, and I'm just waiting for the first tournament to make this step.
It wouldn't be hard to implement if the games will be casted from replays.
p.s. I didn't watch a single replay in normal mode ever since I DLed the Resolution Hack. It's buggy, no? I've heard it crashes randomly (but never used it myself).

There were two versions, the first one was no where near goon enough to be even considered for something like this. But the second one is very very good, feels almost like an in game thing.
If you guys talk about it, and give me a hint that you'll seriously consider it, I can try to contact the author myself to fix a few minor bugs. (hooking him up with ~$100 and a few mentions in the casts could make it his personal mission to give a quality product to the community.)
And you Chill, just watch some of these recent pro reps in high resolution. 640x480 might still be best for playing, but for casting, this is the real thing.
I was hoping OGN or MBC would make their own versions of it, and then "Zoom out" as the big battle approaches. (kinda like what they do with switching between 1st person and normal observing) The crowd would go wild.

I second this, you oughta give it a whirl, if it works it would be amazing for casting

I can vouch for the operational capabilities of the latest version. I've used it quite a bit, and nothing really has bugged out on me.

Why don't the people who do use it describe what they mean when they say nothing "really" bugs out -- does it crash? Does it lag? Does it miss actions?

The only thing it does is miss some starcraft sounds. It only detects sounds in a certain portion of the screen. Otherwise, it has never given me a problem.

Try it out on a stream and see if it works. Maybe have Day9 cast one of his dailys in the resolution thingy.

It does NOT bug out.
The only flaws I noticed are:
- You can't A-click the map (not important for obsing)
- When you select a unit, and press it's icon hoping to center the screen, it doesn't get centered correctly. (it gets centered as if it was 640x480 which means the unit ends up actually being up and to the left of the center of the screen)
- Minor visual bug happens when you hover over replay control buttons(pause, speed up, speed down). The popup label that in normal circumstances appears right above the button, now also appears in the middle of the screen (as if it was 640x480)
- It does NOT crash - it does NOT lag - it makes it a lot easier to see what's going on in battles - you guys should try it for yourselves
