Okay so I wanted for just an hour to watch a DVD (Quantum Leap Episode - Dreams). However, when I turn it on the picture is SEVERELY pixelated and patchy. As if the original picture was tiny and in the upscaling it has been stretched almost to the point of faces being indistinguishable.
I have my DVD player connected up via component (HD) connection and apparently its limited to 576 DPI or something (thats what comes up on the display. I had the same problem connecting it via Scart as well though; not 576 DPI but the picture was patchy, especially in low lighting but improved in scenes with good lighting.
Does anyone else have this problem? My TV is a 32" Vistron. Maybe not the best known brand but it plays Xbox 360 games in 1080i and looks amazing. So here are my questions:
1. Is the problem the DVD player or the TV? The DVD player is Vistron also but only cost £25/$50 (it plays any media put in it though, even raw AVI files on CD).
2. Do I need or should I get a HD/DVD upscaler?
FYI when watching Digital TV the picture is perfect with very little 'noise'. So I think that means its the DVD player?
