You can also do this..if you have a normal TV (that is relatively new...and it should be around $500 Canadian. I can't tell you which TV's but mine is Sony Trinitron Wega 27 inch flat screen TV.) I went on some forums and found out how to access the service mode. From there, I did some tweaking. (Your TV must support 16:9 or widescreen capability for this to work). The widescreen capability compresses the image so it looks increadibly sharp. Unfortunatly there were lines still present on the screen. In the service mode, I tweaked a couple of things..and the lines went away. (Only in 16:9 mode). The picture looks so much better (I'll say equivalent to 720P).
WARING!!
If you plan to try this with your TV, be warned that the service mode is not a place to fool around in. It may screw up your whole TV, so be careful. Most newer NON-HDTV's have a pretty sophisticated BIOS or chip inside them that can be changed around with the service mode.
Try it with yours if you really want to. (Also the TV must have component inputs at the back. If it does, I'm sure it must have a 16:9 mode).
Have fun! :thumbs:
