sorry DE but i have to disagree there.
No need to apologise about disagreeing amicably! You're right that the DVD scales straight up to 1920x1080 - this means (I'm 99% certain) that the DVD is wrong. It's a bit sad that it doesn't even hurt to say that any more ;)
If you create a 720x576 image in Photoshop (CS or above) and set the aspect ratio (under advanced) to Wide PAL, it will be displayed at a width of 1051 pixels, not 1024.
Both VLC and Windows Media player get this "wrong" too, so I may try to dig a little more for a definitive answer.
