no point.
you COULD take the 720x576 resolution dvds, and process them so that they
become a hi def resolution of your choice.
there wouldnt be any point though - they wouldnt magically gain extra detail
that wasnt there to begin with.
also, if you play said dvds back from your pc using normal pc playback
software, they will be scaled to the output resolution of your pc anyway.
pulldown removal etc would mainly be down to your graphics card drivers.
