Upscaling you usually don't lose a lot of quality, IMHO. Similar
to the old TV line doublers, you may get a better picture with more
resolution even if you have to interpolate or extrapolate some.<br>
<br>
I think 1080i and 1080p scaled down to 720p would be a worse option
than upscaling 720p. To me, it makes sense to upscale or
deinterlace to 1080p than downgrade 1080i and 1080p to 720 lines.<br>

But back to mythtv topic, has anyone tried running myth on a
30inch Dell at 2650x1600? I bet the quality is incredible when
you upscale 1080p video to 1600 lines of resolution... Maybe I will try
it over Xmas.<br>
