Best upscalling DVD player.

I have a samsung 850 upscaling dvd player with hdmi output. the settings you have access to on it are quite comprehensive. there is a remote control hack to make it region free too and it is a great quality player.

 

sorry for double post, but if you can connect your pc to your tv(vga or hdmi/dvi) with the right fiddling in powerDVD, VLC or a similar powerful dvd program, you can get results superior to any common upscaling dvd player. and if you have a 720p set that is not exaclty 720 resolution (as is common), the pc can output at the exact resolution as your tv - increasing the quality of the display further (I think the 360 can set to non-standard 720p settings too) as standalone upscaling dvd players will not upscale to the PC-style standard that many "720p" tvs fit.

I heard the X360 HD-DVD drive does a good job of upscalling DVDs.

 

Does it really? do you need HDMI for this?

 

PS3. Upscaled DVDs look fantastic. You still have your PS3, right Caris? Use it.

 

Yeah I was gonna say I heard PS3 was good.
