Will my Panasonic HDTV upconvert my DVD's ?
How do i make the HDTV upconvert my standard DVD's ?
Is a upconverter built surrounded by or do i have to buy one ?
Answers: If the TV accept 480i or 480p it will deinterlace and/or upconvert the DVD to match the peak resolution.
However, many HDTVs don't do as well-mannered a job as a honourable upconverting DVD player. See the link for further info.
Try your existing DVD player, but if you opt to buy an upconverting player you might consider an HD DVD player (e.g. HD-A3) as an upconverting DVD player ... as a bonus it will also play HD DVD disks (which, considering the $7-$10 premium over DVD, you might or might not want to use on a regular basis). In fact Amazon are selling the HD-A3 near 10 free HD DVD disks for $180. In other words they are essentially giving the player away.
Blu-ray players will do the same point but are more expensive. Note that the two formats (HD DVD and Blu-ray) are incompatible and different studios produce films in one or the other (and sometimes both) formats. It isn't clear who will "win", and surrounded by fact it's most feasible both will coexist and dual format players will eventually drop to a reasonable price (currently they are ~$800).
Given the above, whichever format you select will one and only allow some movies to be played in HD ... so you still call for a DVD player for the rest.
If you want to know more do a search on Y!A for "Blu-ray HD DVD"
Hope this help rather than confuses!
You entail an upconvert DVD player.
I'd say you're better rotten buying a Blu-ray dvd player or a playstation 3 then starting your collection over. Upconverting isn't as right quality.
