Hi,
I am thinking of the above to go with my Toshiba 32CV505DB as the Regza link would be handy and also the upscaling.
I sit around 10ft from the tv so would the upscaling have any beneficial effect over my Philips dvd player?
It says region2 only on the box but I have heard that some are region free anyway. There are no hacks for any region so that could make it a non starter anyway.
Thanks
Rob

The images from the Phillips player will already be upscaled as the TV will be doing it.

Will the Toshiba player be any better, well that depends if it has a better scaler than the TV, then again the HDMI connection may give a sharper picture then scart.

I would have to say there would probably be very little difference, if there was, at 10ft from a 32" TV I doubt you would see the difference anyway.

Thanks Deacon,
A nice clear answer and I wasn't aware the tv upscaled anyway. I think I'll stick with the Philips as I know it is region free and the picture is pretty good.
Thanks again.
Rob
