I've recently compared the SD image quality of the 8000 with some other HDTV receivers. The 8000 is very good in smoothing out/cleaning out the SD picture: low noise, hardly any aliasing, etcetera.
BUT, this smoothness is at the cost of some sharpness. Some receivers have a slightly sharper SD picture.
Now my question: besides the autoresolution plug-in, do image writers
have influence on the picture quality? Are they able to give the user
the choice of havin a less smooth but sharper image?
This would be awesome.
