It's almost as if the Sony quite happily upscales on R1 DVDs , but refuses to do the same thing on R2 DVDs.

Any ideas why?

1nce again, many thanks for any help :o)

You might have mentioned that before. If it upscales region 1, the upscale system is obviously working and is set up right. By the way, it will only upscale through HDMI, no other input. The fact it won't upscale region 2 has got to be a software problem, (Or it hasn't been set up for multi region correctly) I'm only guessing. I don't know if there is a firmware upgrade for it, you would have to go to the Sony site and fill in their questionnaire help form on this one. Bob
