congrats, you've got a genuine dvd upscaler

upscaling is a crock. you can't magic pixels out of nowhere. life is not like CSI
Yeah, this is what I thought, just needed some confirmation. I always play my movies in VLC and it does seem to do a pretty decent job of it. I always thought some form of interpolation would be required between the SD pixels being presented in a high def screen.

Cheers guys.
