best upscaling dvd player 1080p image
flitz
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).

I bought a 46" Sony Bravia and at the store the quality seemed amazing but when I play a DVD with my upscaling dvd player the picture seems to be grainy...no matter what setting that I try..what can I do ?
Answer
So your picture quality depends on a few things:
1) Your TV
2) Your source material [this case your upscaling DVD player]
3) cables
You have a good TV, and the upscaling DVD player probably does 720p or 1080i, which is enough if you only have a 720p set. With 1080p it'd still probably be pretty good.
With that in mind, I believe your problem is the cables. Are you using high definition cables? You'll need either component cables or a HDMI cable. If you're using composite (yellow/red/white) or s-video, you're only getting a standard definition picture sent to your TV.
If you buy a cable, you don't have to get the super expensive ones, just check them out at some place like www.monoprice.com. You can get them for considerably cheaper there, and the quality is almost the same. With expensive in-store cables, more than 50% of the price is the markup. So those $100 cables you see get sold to employees for like $20.
