>>>Obviously an Oppo peculiarity. My Denon DVD player, the 2910, and the Pioneers I've owned have all offered upscaling to 720p as well as 1080i or p, and offer it with analog output as well.

Probably one of the ways that Oppo cuts costs and not a bad way to cut it in many cases.<<<

As a general rule, upscaling isn't allowed via analog outs. While there are a few exceptions, here in the US it has to be done via digital connections. Its been decreed by the DVD Consortium. Perhaps things are different where you are, as in the case of region coding.
