Are there DVD players that will upconvert my movies to 720p output for my TV? My TV does not support 1080p btw

Question

looking for options for better DVD pictures - thanks

Answer 1

The Philips DVP 5980 (and higher models from philips like 5992 etc.) has a hdmi out and does really good upscaling to 1080p or 720p. (can be selected in the player setup) I use a 5980 myself after I did quite a bit of research in various boards which dvd players do decent upscaling. (Which was my main reson for buying a new one, too) At that time (about five months ago) there was one from Samsung that did the upscaling quite well, too, but it was my impression the Philips performed slightly better.
