Upscaling - someone please explain...

Exactly! If the data is not on the original you can't pull it from nowhere.

As I said, the information for increased resolution was not in the original frame, it was taken from the adjacent frames. This can be done(to a certain extent) with SD-DVD to increase the resolution.

Shown at CES 2005 and covered right here at Audioholics, Silicon Optix Realta Video Processing Chipset(aka HQV chip found in the Denon 5910/3930) took a clip filmed in SD and upscaled to a HDTV, this was compared to the same clip filmed in HD and played on a HDTV side by side. The result, only a well trained eye could distinguish a difference.

What you are talking about is some kind of hybrid frame. Detail of the tree was taken from a frame that had more info about the tree and added to a frame that had less detail of the tree.

That is not an exact reproduction of what was happening the moment it was filmed. What happens when all frames lack details of the tree? Does the processor know it's a tree and adds branches and leaves where there were just fuzzy green blobs before?
