Originally posted by NRBQLou: If there is anyone out there seriously looking to "up-res" their non-SVHS VCR to "hi-def" resolution (they must own some pretty pristine vhs cassettes, I would imagine) then I say, set aside a corner of the 997 rear, label it "weirder than turntable owners section" and let them have at it!

I have some home movies on VHS that I would still like to watch, so I guess I'm a "weirder than turntable owner" except that I also have a turntable. My turntable will be connected to a separate stereo analog preamp (with HT bypass)via an outboard phono preamp. So the 997 appears to meet my needs to upgrade from my 950 as it will have HDMI.
