Depends what your TV's native display format is. If it's 1080p and you're having the blu-ray push the 1080p signal then the blu-ray is. If the blu-ray is pushing the 1080p signal and your TV is 1080i/720p or something else then the TV is.

What do you have it setup yo do? If you just send the signal in its native format, the display does.

"what equipment are you using?"

its a buddies future setup. he doenst want to spend the extra money on a receiver that upconverts if BR players do it better. but im guessing around $500-700 for a receiver.. maybe Onkyo.

depends on his display, like I said most displays to the best job.

I don't waste time with Receivers up-scaling (changing a 480i signal into a 1080p). What I do look for is up converting (changing the composite video from my Wii to HDMI for my TV).

I let my PS3 do its own scaling. Other than that, I leave it to the TV.
