In Reply to: Re: DVD upconvert to 1080i not always the best option? posted by Jack G on March 26, 2006 at 15:04:54:
I agree that DVD players that upconvert to 1080 lines usually need to downconvert to 720 or 768 lines to match the resolution of the display.And with 1080i, I suspect that the downconversion is tyically to 768i.
I agree that its often much better to upconvert to 720p, rather than 1080i, if you have that option.
