This and rob,
and everybody else,

remember that this upconversion, as far as I know, only gives you 480i, which is already quite an improvement because it means less input switching on monitors. Usually.

Watch out with some TVs, though; I know of a Samsung that could not see 480i and 480p on the same input, so you still need to switch inputs on that TV when using an upconverting receiver.

And let's see, the receiver has one component output, but it needs to go to two inputs on the TV...in other words, that Samsung TV actually requires component video distribution to take advantage of video upconversion because neither component input can accept BOTH signals.

Combine that with the fact that Channel Up does not switch you away from video inputs to the TV tuner, and that Samsung is a bit of a turkey. Just an issue to look into before money is spent.
A good answer is easier with a clear question giving the make and model of everything.
