Also, you say from 576p, when normal for U.S. is 480p, 576p is the low for PAL consoles. HE does not indicate where he is from, and what video format he is using.

And to answer your question, No, the 360 does not upscale DVDs. he means upscales DVDs from 576p to an HD resolution, not upconverts. youre ranting about the wrong kettle of fish.

There are more expensive devices (150.00 and up) that have been doing this for years now. Again, the digital converted signal will only be as good as the inputted signal.

All the converter does is change the analog signal, to a digital one, that will be able to be used with a HDTV with an HDMI input. If you have a TV that only has HDMI in for video, then this is your ticket. Other than that, there are no improvements over the analog signal, because it is being CONVERTED to digital... SO, if you has a bad analog signal converted to digital will still show the flaws in the the digital converted signal. All this does it make your XBOX360 cost more than a new one, which have HDMI ports, and more than the Elite model. You paid 399.99 for the Premium at one time, now another 90.00 for a converter? Not worth it, just news... If the 360 upconverts, there are no legalities about it.

Not really worth my while! :D Looks like a nice product though, in any case. Well, I would have gotten this, only it’s $90 and I can upgrade to an Elite 360 for only €90.
