yo TT3, do you work for Toshiba?

or a better question is y do u care????

your post reads like you are in sales & marketing for Toshiba????

or is it that you have to much time & nothing to do?

this is right from the CNet review:

Toshiba is trying to corner the market on "turns your standard-def into high-def!" hype. One recent attempt was the XD-E500 DVD player, which trumpeted funky and ultimately disappointing "XDE" video processing in attempt to lure buyers. Now there's the more elaborate "SRT Super Upconversion" moniker, which promises that "all your DVDs and TV channels will be displayed in near High Definition picture quality." According to our tests of the 46-inch 46XV545U, that's "even less true than you might expect". Turning SRT on does make some standard-definition sources appear a bit sharper compared with leaving it off with this display, but "at the expense of artificially enhanced images that don't look much like high-definition" to us. Fortunately for its final score, the 46XV545U gets the basics mostly right.
