PS3 games 1080p/i: Shouldn't it be diplaying as 1080 as well?

Wow, there are so many little things that could be causing the problem. First of all it would help if you knew if your TV was capable to 1080p, I kind of doubt it, but most certainly it'll have 1080i if it is an HDTV. If you have 720 that is also very good. Next you need to check your setup on your PS3 screen settings and make sure you have every single format that is compatible with your television checked, this can be very important. When I first got my TV I had an older model 50" rear-projection HDTV. But mine came out before HDMI so I was forced to hook up via 3 cable (or 5 if you count the audio) composite. My TV could only handle 480i, 480p, and 1080i. It made a big difference which PS3 game I happened to be playing. It is important to read the back of the box of your PS3 games to read what resolution(s) each particular game supports. My Madden 08 only supports 480p, 480i, 720p. Because of this, even though my TV could handle 1080i which is HD, it is not supported by the game. And since my TV could not operate in 720p, that was a no go. Therefore, Madden O8 on my PS3 only showed on my big HDTV in 480p which is not at all HD. But what could I do? Nothing. But a game like Warhawk supports 720p and 1080i so my TV totally rocked in the 1080 department with that particular game. I had the exact same problem with Resistance: fall of man; it only supports 720p. But again, check your PS3 screen settings b/c if you don't have a given resolution checked, the PS3 won't even attempt to project it.

To the best of my knowledge the highest resolution is 1440x1080p which when played back is reported as 1920x1080p. It's not true 1080p but it's better than 720p and honestly it looks pretty damn good, with decent lighting of course.

Grab a Blu player , as you'll be fine with the 720p ; no downgrade in PQ as the Blu player will still output to 1080p . Just set the Blu player to 1080p (and 24fps to auto) and enjoy the picture .

It is. You just can't tell because there is only so much that up-conversion can do. It isn't some magic wand that suddenly turns 480p into 1080p. All it does is enhance what is there, if there isn't enough there to be properly enhanced you wont see much difference.

First, check the back of your Blu Ray component output. It should but it wouldn't be 1080p only 480i picture quality. HDMI cables to your Blu-Ray and HD Television that's the best way to go. I hope I help answer your question. Happy Holiday and New Year.

I too have a suoer slim 500 gb. Playstation 3. I rarely encountered any framerate issues. a couple of times when things got really crazy but not enough to take away from the fun I had playing the game.

Try digging into the PS3 menus and try altering your video output in the "audio/video settings" menu...I have a PS3 connected to an HDMI receiver and I think you may have to let the PS3 know what output you are using because the HDMI is separate from the other video output plug.

The TV is probably stating that the source being input is 1080p. It is definitely being down converted to either 720p or 1080i on the TV, however. PN42C450 and PN42C450B1D are one in the same - the different model numbers probably have something to do with the reseller you bought it from; possibly a tracking code slapped onto the back of the actual model number.

Scott, glad you found the post useful. I believe the Wii's max resolution is 480p, so there's some conversation going on, maybe? Like you I don't really understand the details on this stuff. I do know that I haven't had problem at all with audio and video being out of sync using the 720.

my westington house display is messing up. the ps3 hdmi handshake is all messed up but my westington house display also has a vga port if i connect this cable to my ps3 (hdmi device) to the display via VGA (1080p) device will it in turn be like connecting a normal hdmi to and hdmi setup. i just want to watch and play ps3 on my 1080p display in 1080p. im pretty sure im reading the description of the cable right but just want to be sure.P.S. dont buy westington displays cheap price for a bad product.

The picture quailty will be the same unless a cable in between the tv to reciever or reciever to ps3 is bad..other wise it doesnt alter the video just passes it threw. The audio on the ps3 should be set to LPCM and not Bitstream. Blu-rays have TrueHD and DTS-HD-MA audio which the 720 cant decode. But the ps3 can, and send it to the reciever threw LPCM over HDMI. LPCM the player(ps3) does all the decodeing, Bitstream the reciever does the decodeing. Hope that helps

You need to set-up your inputs to match the desired output of the television. If you have a cable box, checkthe settings off on all resolutions to be supported. If a PS3, do the same. ETC.

Yes. It's weird. Not sure why it's like that. It's the only title packages like this for the PS4.

From what I have read about my 1080p flatscreen. The picture is automatically upconverted to 1080p

At least you can get your TV to recognize the signal, my tv won't pick up on the hdmi connection. But if i connect it directly to my TV, our when I had my 1080i TV, to change the setting all you would have to do is change it on your playstation, as long as you have 1080P and you change it to automatic, you should be able to get it to work fine in 1080P...sorry this is one year late?

I believe that the tv is always set to 1080p, although the media that you are watching may be at a lower resolution.

Component can support 1080p, but the current agreements between hardware manufacturers caps implemented resolution at 1080i. This is in order that HDCP over HDMI be allowed to reign supreme over all our media content viewings. If they enabled 1080p over Component, then there would be easy(er) ways to bypass the DRM on High-Def discs and programming.So I doubt you're getting 1080p over component unless you've done some hacking.
