DVD upscaler

tubos

Looking to buy a DVD upscaler to watch my DVDs at their best on a HD telly. Are there any good buys out there?

Don't know if you're prepared to spend €250 but I got one of these. Does a great job.

Anyone looking to transport their library of Standard-Def DVDs to their HDTV at 720p or 1080p is advised to check Oppo's latest player out. To better the DV-981HD, you’d need to spend a considerably higher amount of cash, meaning that this is money well spent. I’ve been adamant for some time (as have others) that Genesis’ chip, when implemented properly, is the best balance between value for money and quality for most users. Seeing it served up for a bargain price inside the DV-981HD gave me no reason to change that opinion.

Performing nearly as well as players costing four times the price, the Oppo DV-981HD is an unbeatable bargain for videophiles and enthusiasts.

And more praise.

This one is very cheap, especially when you consider it'll upscale to 1080p where many only upscale to 1080i.Only 54e overall

Not bad!

The very affordable XS-600 DVD player from Biostek has an HDMi connection to reproduce images with impressive quality. Video images are displayed in 1080p thanks to the Progressive Scan technology. The XS-600 also has a USB port for reading files...

keep an eye out for a HD-DVD player which should be dropping in price like a rock in water
All are DVD upscalers

Hey in regard to the one from Pixmania, does that play all divx and xvids? Also it has a usb connection does that mean I can just plug in a 500gb HD and will be able to access everything on it? Will it upscale these as well.

I dont think usb ports on dvd players can generally read files from Hard drives.Too many files i think.I dont think that particular player can read divx files but many other players can

Got this one and I'm happy with results. It's a little slow to load, but otherwise perfect:
