Upscaling is fine.
I tried pulling in a newish (but low end) Toshiba DVD player from the other room to put onto my Hi-Def LCD and the Oppo was WAY better.
Honestly, on some DVD's it's like it's playing (what I could imagine) Hi-Def to look like.
The only downside of the player (for me) is the known about macroblocking which you see more than perhaps other players due to the Oppo's chipset (think the Denon's are the same in this respect)
Not having it set too bright and not sitting too close helps a lot, and in all honesty it's all down to the DVD's
On some DVD's it's terrible, on others it not noticable at all.
I've only actually just tried a home burned DVD the other day, and that was on a Verbatim 4x speed DVD-R and that plays ok.
More than that I can't say. But I feel this player probably is very good in this dept.
