Samsung DVD-HD931 HDTV Converter Progressive-Scan DVD Player
No contest : HD931 wins hands down vs. JVC 480P  XVN50BK
Summary: if your screen is larger than 32&quot;, you need the HD931. <BR>I just upgraded from a 32&quot; jvc tv to a 60&quot; Sony WEGA lcd projector. I connected both the HD931 with DVI cable (5m DVI-D through av-cables.net for $35)and my 9-month old JVC &quot;digital direct&quot; XVN50BK progressive scan player using monster component cable. On good dvd transfers the difference is stunning, but even on mediocre dvds the difference is clearly noticeable. On all dvds the HD931 eliminates stair-stepping and cleans up the image, resulting in more detail and depth. Yes, the remote is somewhat of a pain, and yes, my new Sony stretched most 4:3 dvds even at 480P until I called Samsung and obtained a firmware update that I was aware of only because of another Amazon customer review. All in all, the clear difference in picture is definitely worth the little extra bit of hassle. With sharp dvds the picture is very, very close to HDTV from ~8' away &amp; up.
