Look people are taking this a bit far. Yes I'll stand by the fact the PQ is not as good on TiVo, but it's not that bad either, it's perfectly watchable. The SD shows look the same as they do upscaled on my TVs built in tuner, however the V+ did a better job and newer SD shows or live events almost looked as good as the HD channels.

The TiVo is auto-switching output now depending on the source. It's displaying HD content at 1080i and SD content at 720p. And yes SD does look better displayed at 720.

The above says to me that the TiVo isn't doing any upscaling, it's leaving it to the TV.

However don't let it stop you getting TiVo!! Most shows are in HD now and the TiVo is an awesome bit of kit!
