user17218: I have a ripped DVD that I want to have digitally upscaled to 1080p. I have access to the editing software Adobe Premiere Pro and After Effects. I know Premiere is able to upscale when exporting, but I'm not happy with the results and I'm looking for a better solution.
So in short, what is the best way to upscale a 480p video to 1080p?

There's a short tutorial on how to do this at the following link:
