Answer 3

If you have a HDTV and the PS3 connected to it with HDMI, then you can use the Upscaling options to make the DVD's appear in HD quality. It also works with PS1 and PS2 games (but the games and movies upscaling are controlled by different settings).

--

[DVD Upscaler] is an option in [BD/DVD Settings] under Settings. This enables users to adjust settings for upscaled output of DVDs.

[Off]: Disable upscaled output.

[Double Scale]*: Upscale and display with double horizontal and vertical dimensions without changing the proportions.

[Normal]: Upscale and display at a size that matches the screen size.

[Full Screen]: Upscale and display at full screen by changing proportions and stretching the image

* This option can be used only when the video output of the PS3 system is set to 1080p/1080i.

    * When playing copyright-protected DVD content such as commercially available DVD-Video, an HDMI cable is required to upscale output.

    * If image quality is reduced or the image does not look right when upscaled, set this option to [Off].
