Does Xbox 360 upscale DVD's ???

I want to know if when you watch a DVD in your 360 does it upscale it to 1080i.

I mean because i have a Progressive scan DVD and surround sound hooked up to my 1080i bigscreen HD TV. So when i watch DVD's on my 480p progressive scan DVD player does my TV upscale it to 1080i being that most TV's usually have a upscale that will upscale it. Or does it play it in the 480P progressive scan?

So what I'm wondering am i better off playing the DVD in my 360 thinking it will look better thinking becuaee the 360 will upscale it to 1080i ???

overall the DVDs look better on the 360..I believe it upscales the video, but I know there has been some updates in the past that make the DVDs look much better on the 360 than any other players (eliminates the pixelation and the black looking grey)

We watched the David Mathews band concert in New YorkDVD last night, people thought it was HD....;)

drom what I believe it works like this

Component

upscales up to 480p

VGA

upscales up to 720p/1080i

HD-DVD add-on

upscales up to 1080p

correct me if I'm wrong

i thought it was HD Componet cables upscale to 1080i then VGA and HDMi along with the HD-DVD player upscale to 1080P

Nope no upscaling, and they look worse than my 50bucks dvd player. No lie.BounceDK

Yes, MS cant put out an update to make their crappy DVD better.

I believe component won't upscale at all except adding progressive scan because of legal issues. VGA or HDMI will though I'm not totally sure that they can do it without the HD-DVD but I'm pretty certain they do but you will need the add-on for Full HD resolution, and to play HD-DVD movies of course :P

The VGA cables only go up to 720p, it says so right on the packaging. I was gonna pick up aset until I saw that.gintheplacetobe
