Hi guys,
I heard that Blue Ray dvd players are out ,but only in Japan.Does anybody know anything about them?All I heard was that at present
they are not backward compatible with current dvd's.
High definition dvp's are supposedly backward compatible.
If an HD dvd player will up-convert a standard dvd from 480i
to 720p doesn't that also require the tv to have up conversion
capabilities? For example,the SONY KLVS40A10 40inch LCD has
a native resolution of 720p,but it does not have upconversion
technology.so what type of picture will be shown? 720p or 480i?
Any help with my questions would be appreciated.

A HD DVD player will also have the option to upscale 480i/480p/576i/576p normal DVDs to 720p or 1080i or 1080p. Compare the results. My bet is the HDTV internal scaler-deinterlacer gets better results in most cases. The TV design engineers optimized the TV scaler to play normal DVD.
Unless your set is exactly 1280x720 or 1920x1080 native resolution, your DVD 720x480/576 native image will get double scaled if you use the DVD player scaler. 1080i conversion will also loose the benefits of progressive scan, or worse it will interlace the native 480p/24 DVD and then the TV will try to deinterlace that. Multiple conversions are usually give a bad result.
