Yamaha RX-V863 480i/480p Deinterlacing Conversion/1080p Upscaling Test Results

Screen grabs were obtained using a Sony DSC-R1 Digital Still Camera.

1. Using an OPPO Digital DV-983H DVD Player. I set the output resolution to 480i, and alternately connected the Composite, S-Video, and Component video outputs to the matching inputs on the RX-V863.

2. The receiver's HDMI ouptut was connected to a Westinghouse Digital LVM-37w3 1080p LCD Monitor. I confirmed, via the onscreen display of the Westinghouse, that it was receiving a 1080p (converted from 480i) output from the RX-V863. I checked, via the DVD player's onscreen menu, that it was outputing a 480i signal to the receiver.

3. I inserted a Silicon Optix test disc in the DVD player and ran through a series of tests designed detect the deinterlacing capability of the input source, the Yamaha RX-V863.
