Default How does downscaling work?
Take a 1920x1080 jpeg file, shrink it so that it will fit with your monitor that has less than 1920x1080 native resolution. The jpeg picture will have jaggies. But take a BD 1080p movie and feed it to a monitor that has less than 1920x1080 native resolution, the picture will still look perfect with no visible jaggies. I don't notice any jaggies with my 1600x900 16.4" laptop monitor.

What is the secret? What is the difference between shrinking a jpeg picture and downscaling a BD movie?
