I am not the most technically savy person, so excuse my ignorance on the topics of scaling and such. I just purchased a Sony DVP-NC85H to replace an older Phillips DVD player that crashed. I hooked it up and put in The Incredibles to see how it looks and I was rather disappointed. The picture quality is actually worse than the player it replaced as well as the current Panasonic DVD recorder I have hooked up. The problem is that the edges (and sometimes other parts) of brightly colored objects is not sharp. There is a ragged look to the edge. For instance, on the main menu screen of The Incredibles, the outline of Mr Incredible is ragged. Also, in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory in scene 13 where they enter the "eatable room" the blue sweatsuit worm by the mother is ragged all the way through. Before I return this to the store I want to know if anyone else has seen this issue? I tried various settings with the player and had no luck in changing this. This is hooked up to a Magnavox DLP HDTV using component cables. (as is the Panny).
