Forget the "upconverting" player; your set doesn't need it. If your present player is mediocre, a new player may make a slight improvement independently of any scaling feature.


I have to agree with JohnK on this one.
A friend of mine bought an upscaling dvdp last year for the very reason of trying to get HD resolution from non-HD dvds. As expected, there was little change and if any, hard to decide whether it could be considered an improvement. However in buying a different brand, the contrast and colour saturation was noticeably better.

One must start with higher resolution to really get higher resolution. It is too bad that HD tv content is still so limited here. Very frustrating.
