Please verify the following statements:
The TV will upconvert a fed signal (say DVD at 480p) to 1080i.
The upconverting DVD player will feed an upconverted 1080p signal to
the TV.
The TV is a Sony XBR that has the ability to display 1080p; the DVD
player has the 1080p upconversion capability (also Sony).
Hence, it appears that the DVD player upconversion should be a better
way to go.
Not sure if there will actually be any discernible difference. I have
the equipment and was wondering if I'm looking at the parameters
correctly. TIA.
I suggest you try it both ways and let us know. Upconversion ought to be
upconversion, but I'm sure some implementations are better than others.
Won't a 1080p upconverted signal from the DVD pass through HDMI while its
480p signal will have to get to the TV via component cables? Will that make
a difference? Don't know.

I'll burn a couple of copies of a DVD and play them simultaneously in
two DVD players. One is connected to the TV via component cables
while the other uses an HMDI interface. I'll display both signals
using the PNP feature and see if there is a significant difference.
Give me a couple of days to get this done.
