Wanted to find out what TV resolutions your HDTV supports if you are PS3 owner.

The ones that any HDTV can: 480i/p 720p 1080i

I sold that old CRT HD Ready set years ago. ;)

In North America this is a factually incorrect statement. 1080i is the only standard you have to support in order to be labeled an HDTV here.

My Toshiba 50H81 from 2001 does 480i, 480p, (1920x)540p, and 1080i.

My Samsung CRT is 480i/p, 1080i
My Mits HD1000U is 480p, 576i/p, 720p, and 1080i.

Whatever dude, why do waste yours and everyone else's time with a post like that. :rolleyes:

Jhaines,

I have the same tv and my 50H81 still looks great.

The poll question is rather vague. My set accepts up to 1080i, but then upconverts to 1080p. So how would I respond to your question?

Sorry, but I teach test construction! ;)

Maybe what I should have said is what does it support and what will it display.

Sorry, I loath tests. ;)

ouch, my 720p,1080i is outnumbered by 1080p? Guess I need to start shopping :p

This thread is is leading to what? You looking to buy a new TV or for debate.

I learned my Sony SXBR TV that was labled (1080P) when I bought it is actually 1080P however it wont accept a 1080P signal.. BS

It is an accurate question. The OP asked "supports".

TVs are always labeled according to what they display not what they take as an input.

It is an accurate question. The OP asked "supports".

Perhaps we're both right. As a non-expert on these boards, I'm still not positive if supports refers to what the TV will accept or what it displays -- though I now suspect it's the former.

OTOH, as this is AV SCIENCE forum, perhaps it is reasonable for the OP to assume that folks here would be familiar with the term "supports". Of course, if some don't then you get errors in responding.

There is no 'hidden' agenda here and I already have my setup. I was more curious as to the profile of HDTV owners for PS3 owners for my own understanding. There have been multiple posts for support of 1080i games for those that only have 1080i displays, and that don't support 720p. I just wanted to understand what that represented in total population in our sample of members. No right or wrong answer - just trying to get my mind around how big of an issue that really was for the greater population. I'm all for supporting 1080i only output by the software developers - just thought it would be interesting to see the demographic.

With that said, I don't want this thread turning into a debate on that particular subject. It's a reasonable question and the data might interest others based on a completely different motivation. Thus the reason it was very generic in it's subject matter.

I have all three next gen systems going into a component matrix switch which feeds my 1080i Mitsubishi 42" CRT (does not work with 720p at all) and a 720p lcd projector in another room. With the switch, I can have any combination of source and display including both simultaneously.

i prefer gaming on the 42" that is set up in my "lair". Unfortunately, the PS3 does not upconvert for use on the 1080i display. I have not played Resistance yet because of this issue. Also in a direct comparison, MLB: The Show looks much, much better at 720p than at 1080i. There are many jaggies present when the output is set to 1080i.

To date, The Show is the only game I own on my PS3. If games are multi platform, I buy the 360 version. I really wish the PS3 did not have this issue and as much as I'd like to, I really can't justify replacing the perfectly good Mitsubishi that I bought in early 2003 - that's really not old.

I'm still surprised that this issue has not been resolved with an update.

Mitsubshi WD-57731, 720p, 1080i/p.

Looking for a clarification.

480i and 480p are not HD resolutions, correct? Last I understood, 480i was standard broadcast tv digitized and 480p was just line doubling that enhanced DVD playback and gaming.

So for HD only 720p, 1080i, and 1080p count, is this a correct statement?

Makomachine, is there any reason why this poll (http://www.avsforum.com/avs-vb/showthread.php?t=770141) doesn't already answer your question...?

Same here. Sony XBR2

just as i thought... the amount of 480/1080i owners is well under 10%. outside of avsforum, i'm guessing for the total amount of PS3 owners it would be a similar % and as time goes on, this % will go down as every HDTV made in the last 2.5-3 years supports 720p. if you posted this in the display section of avsforum, there might be no 1080i/480 owners.

i'm actually surprised with the amount of 1080p owners.

Which set? No chance that people have more than one hdtv I guess.

480i/p are not HD resolutions. 480p however is not just a line doubling of a 480i source. Line doubling is just how an interlaced source is simulated/converted into a progressive signal.

480i is more like 60 half frames per sec.
480p is 60 full frames per sec.

1080i

Wow.

Looks like I have to start shoppping. ;)

Nah, all the 1080i owners don't want to post their shame here. :o

I like seeing the details - and wanted a more current view. This wasn't specifically tied to the 1080i only issue and I wanted to make this something that could be applied across multiple interest groups. I, for one, am very suprised at the number of 1080p capable sets out there. I really thought that number would be lower - but then again, this is AVS. :D

FYI...my plasma set shines at 720p but it will downscale & de-interlace 1080i and 1080p signals w/ np

That's definitely a limit on the poll. And at AVS, probably a larger problem than the outside world. I personally on a 1080p capable projector and a 1080i/720p plasma - which does beg the question, which way should I have voted. Not thinking about it, I voted based on the PJ. Wasn't tied to it being the newest, but based on the fact it is the setup I use with my PS3 and is my primary viewing 'tv'. No wrong answer I guess...

Mits 48-413 RPTV

Supports HD of the 1080i kind only.

That was just last week how much more current can you get? And of course there is yet another new thread going on this topic. People just like to keep sturring the pot.

Actually that poll was from months ago, it just got rehashed.

The poll was started in 12/06 and it didn't ask the question the way I wanted. I've done everything but try to stir the pot...move along...
