I'm not sure about the upscaling itself, but I feed it an analoge RF signal for free to air TV, and it looks shite. I don't attribute this to the TV, but rather a low quality source made far larger than is sensible. <BR>

My feeling is that LCD TV's in general have a tendency to exaggerate the qualities of the source material, e.g. a poor source looks terrible and a good source looks great.<BR>

I briefly tried an embedded intel thing, 3000 I think, and it didn't cope. There were strange artifacts that gave the impression it wasn't fast enough (horizonal line moving down the screen similar to the effect when vsync is disabled when gaming). The driver also liked to crash.<BR>
