best dvd player for 720p tv image
james
The quality of the picture is pretty important to me.
Also, I've heard that most lcd tvs can convert a 420p signal to a 720p.
Is this the same thing as buying a 720p dvd player?
Answer
By 720p dvd player I guess you are talking about a blu ray. A blu ray will look much better than a standard dvd disk. HD tvs do convert any signal they receive to their native resolution, but if you send your tv a 480 dvd pic, it will just convert a poor signal to a large screen. A blu ray will send you a full 720 lines of resolution and look much clearer. It can send a 1080p signal, but with a 720p tv, that's all you will see, 720p. Still an excellent pic.
Use HDMI or red/green/blue component cables to connect blu ray to your tv.

What does an upconvert dvd player convert the display too?

I have a 720p hd tv-but also have a blu ray dvd player, and I know they play at 1080i--just wondering if watching blu ray dvd on a 720p is redundant in that an upconvert can give the same image. Just curious???? I plan on getting a 1080--just waiting to see the 120hz's to come down. thanks.
Answer
There is no 'stretching' involved.
It's not making it true HD
What they are doing is basically tons and tons of math. The signal on a DVD is 480 pixels by 720. So a chip in these players is taking that and making it into 1080x1920 i or p or 720p. It comes out as that new higher res signal, but it can't create more detail that what the original contained. It's just a trick, and it's generally better done on a DVD player than in the TV.
It does help things look cleaner and less jagged since you can notice such things more easily on a huge HDTV. But understand, no upconverting player, no matter how expensive or how advanced the chipset, will give you more detail than a true high def, high bit rate source like a blu ray disc.
Not all 720p HDTV have the same res, as there are three different pixel counts depening on the display tech. They are 1024x768, 1280x720 and 768x1365 (give or take) the pixel count runs from about 750k to about 1 million, that's three to 4 times higher pixel count than regular DVD.
So even though you don't have full HD, you'll still get the benefit of the extra def that blu ray offers. The player can be set to 720p or the TV will down convert a 1080i signal (if you set the player to that) note, not all 720p sets can handle or convert a 1080p signal. Not to worry just set the player to another resolution.
Hope this helps, go out and get a blu ray on black friday! Wal mart will have one for 128 rocks, that is if they have any left.
