I came across this comment somewhere
I haven't found an upscaling DVD player yet that can match the output quality of my notebook when outputting to my 42" 1080p TV.
What do you guys think?

Any comparisons around?
 
i think what you are asking about is the video processing found on a pc compared to what's found on DVD players.

the drive units , shouldnt be substantially different
 
I guess the s/w upscaling on a decent Video player like KMplayer should at least be equal if not better than the hardware upscaling done by a high-end DVD player

Yes, thats my Q.

Will my laptop give as good pictures as a good upscaling DVD player when connected to a HDTV?

Edit: Thx czar.

The 360 should have fared as a better dvd player then.
