Panasonic TH-42PX50U Upscaling
I've had my Panny for about 3 weeks and really enjoy the heck out of it.
But, being a newbie I've been a lurker on this forum and have learned a great deal. The knowledge of the members here is second to none.
My setup is the following (it's simple but it's a start right?)
Panny TH-42PX50U
Yamaha HTR 5860
Sony DVPNS70H (not yet hooked up)
HSU VT-12 & STF-1
Now, for the questions:
How does the Panny upscale?
Is it through only through the HDMI?
Does the Panny upscale the DVD component signal to 720p or 1080i?
Currently I'm using a 2-3 y.o. progressive DVD player hooked up via component. The picture is pretty good - not HD good but good. Definitely and upgrade from my 480i.
Using the Sony via HDMI, will the PQ be a very noticeable increase (i.e. 480i to 480p) or will it minimal?
and the last question is... I've seen many posts/lists on what it a great DVD to test out a surround sound system. What would be a good DVD to show off the plasma? I've watched some HD channels but would like to view some DVD's which I could compare the different inputs (HDMI - component).
To all: Thanks for making this a great source of info.
