You gotta be specific. The difference in what exactly?

Image quality on 1080p upscaled to 4k.

On what sized display, which display, and sitting from how far away?

Sorry 120" inch screen, BenQ HT3550 projector, sitting 8 to 10 feet away.

Ok yea you are probably close enough to see the difference between 1080p and 4K at that distance on that screen and with that projector. MadVR has moments in its upscaling that looks purely native 4K and other moments that look still just 1080p depending on the content, the scene, etc. I'd say madVR is the best upscaler ever created. I often find 1080p blurays upscaled by madVR sharper than movie studio "upscaled" 4K blurays from 2K sources. (Not all UHD disks are actually from 4K content, many are upscales).

I have my madVR setup with a 1080TI graphics card and run NGU Sharp on very high. Lower quality cards will have less ability to upscale as well so YMMV.

BTW, you probably should stop making new threads for every question :)

MVP without madVR is not even going to be close in quality to a direct show player running madVR (Kodi DSPlayer, zoom player, MPC-HC/BE etc)
