Maybe I should point-out to the "Sudsy" twit, and any lurkers, that
the fact that component-video cables can easily handle HD-quality
signals does not mean that upsampling DVD players will send upsampled
video out of their component-video outputs.
Every time I've seen the upsampling feature advertised, they
specifically say that this feature is only available via the HDMI
output. I believe this limitation is designed-into the players for
some silly copy-protection reason. Perhaps there exists, somewhere, a
player that can upsample DVD and send the upsampled signal out the
component-video jacks, but I have not heard of it.
If "Sudsy" has such a player, he could simply say "mine will do it
with the component video outputs" and link to online do***entation for
his player that proves his claim. Instead "Sudsy" decided to be a
stupid twit and post a link to a generic component-video article.
