If my receiver has upscaling to 1080p, do I need a blu ray?

I have an Onkyo receiver which has the 1080p upscaling. Since it upscales my DVD player to 1080p, will I benefit any from buying a Blu ray player?
The receiver is an Onkyo 706.



Answer
Yes, you will benefit from a true unadulterated 1080p source (i.e. Blu-Ray). The question is, is your HDTV able to configure 1080p resolution?

The shortest (and most direct) path will give you the best reproduction. That being said, you may want to get your video to the TV directly from your (soon-to-come) Blu-Ray Player via HDMI. Just a thought to consider.

Happy Viewing!

Is Samsungs BD wise technology in a DVD player just a fancy word for upscaling?

Sony has a DVD player that up scales DVDS to 1080p as well......what's the difference?


Answer
yes and no. While it certainly includes upscaling it also sets contrast and colour to "optimize" the picture. Note it works only if both the player and the TV support it. Upscaling DVD players are common (and all BD players upscale DVDs) but they only change resolution (and image quality varies widely depending on the sophistication of the video processor used).
