HI-FI

I have an NEC MP3 42 plasma being fed with a component signal from denon
2802 amp and pioneer 737 DVD.

Sky+ is upconverted to component by RGB to component box

Question - given that NEC native resolution is 850x480 ish will pumping
signals through a scaler that can do 1080i and then pumping 1080i into
plasma for it to rescale to 850 x 480 look any good or am I wasting Ł300?

thanks for any info or insights offered.

Keene et al suggested the ZINWELL BRITE VIEW BLS2000 PROGRESSIVE SCAN DVI

Brite-View BLS-2000 progressive scan convertor

wot do you all think

cheers


Jim

you are indeed - your plasma is incapable of fully resolving the resolution
of the sky box as it is - let alone 1080i

good laugh ahout it too.

Make that down converted. ;-) You can never improve any signal by
converting it.

thanks dave!

any thoughts on the original question? Would a scaler make the pic look
any better?

Not in your situation. A scaler only helps when you have different
source and display resolutions, and your displays internal scaler is
less good than your external one.
