I have a Sony STR-DA5400ES receiver. The blu-ray player upconverts dvd's as we all know. I understand that the Faroudja Cinema Processor compensates images when are upconverted to 720-1080i/p. Does it work for composite outputs only? I have a dvd/vhs combo with HDMI output that upscales pictures up to 1080p.
Is this processor working when a dvd or vhs are playing on the combo with HDMI connection? Is the picture being processed through the receiver or is it just upscaled? I can see a difference when I watch a film through video composite (beta and laserdisc) or component on my old progressive scan dvd player. But using HDMI on dvd I can notice minimum sharp edges n the picture while on the old progressive dvd pictures are smooth using neutral settings on both machines . confusing for me.
I've noticed that the sound on VHS tapes are converted up to 48kHz with this combo (Sony RDR-VX569) which makes THX processed tapes sound very dynamic.
Thanx
