If you haven't applied the software upgrade yet, I would try that first:

I think I was reading about a couple of bugs with the BD30, one concerning LFE, and another regarding an upscaling bug. Not sure if the update fixed both, check the BD30 thread at AVS.

My BD30 seems to do a great job of upscaling. I actually gave my Denon to my neighbor because the BD30 blew it away.

I am with you on this one. I know many say that the Panny blows for SD play but I honestly don't know what they are complaining about. This is a blu-ray player..it was made to play blu-rays...getting SD play is a bonus. I really am pleased with the quality of SD-DVD on it...for me it is not an issue.

Hmmmm. To my eyes, my BD30 upscaler looks better than the PS3 on my Sony LCD.

I have upgraded to 1.6. It didn't change the performance with my display at all that I have noticed.
