[QUOTE="CairnsFella, post: 522591, member: 80211"] Hi All, I understand that there have been many posts and guides submitted on this and related subjects, but I must say that pretty much all of these have gone over my head. I am looking for advice, if possible, to enable me to achieve upscaling of SD television in lieu of my imminent HP panel purchase. I realise that without some of the technical issues mentioned in these other threads I may not maximise my equipments capabilities, but I am thinking that there must be a laymans explanation that will at least see me achieve some of the benefits. I am currently running a quad core (Q6600 I think) and graphics are handled by a Palit 9600 GT Sonic. Certainly the FFDshow guides seem a little complex, and some suggestions seem at odds with others. My understanding is that this card is PureVideo compatible, but I need to purchase software to take advantage of this. I dont mind doing this, but will this address my requirements simply within Mediaportal? Is there any other software (preferably budget / free... but not necessarily) that will address my requirements "simply". Also, if I manage to effect upscaling will this effect HD broadcasts and DVD playback? Many thanks in advance. [/QUOTE]
