It came with part of this Sony Home Theatre package I purchased about a month ago,

I now use my ps3 to play all my Dvds so I don't really have any use for it.
It's been used about 3 times, it's a 5 disc changer DVD player

Here are the specs on it, it's the DVD player that came with this package

Looking to get at least $30 for it but that's negotiable of course

Question.

Do up-converting DVD players remove the letterbox effect of widescreen dvds?

for instance.. picture this scenario

I have a 16:9 plasma.

A standard "off brand DVD player" connected with Red white & yellow RGB cable, & a "Widescreen Version" of lets say... King Kong.

The picture is letterboxed within an already 16:9 screen. so its even thinner?

Now lets say i have an Upconverting, progressive scan Standard DVD player.. again with the "widescreen version" of King Kong.

Will the image still be Letterboxed within my 16:9 tv?

or will the upconverting DVD player "zoom" into the picture, making it fill the entire screen?

If it actually removes the letterbox effect, i will buy it.

why people think that a 30 dollar dvd player is going ot do a better job at upconverting than their 2k tv is beyond me.
