HD DVD Player

[TEAK36]

I recently purchased an HD ready TV, and a DVD Player with an HDMI port. Everything works fine and I am really pleased with it all, but what I would like to know is, if I downloaded a TV show (from torrent site) that was recorded in HD and listed as HD quality, and I then played it directly on my TV from my hard drive, would it actually be HD quality I was watching? If it is, does the fact that my external hard drive is connected to my tv via Scart have an affect on the quality of the picture?

Good article about it all here, but in a nutshell, you won't get HD quality downloaded from the internet:
