I heard someone say that CRTs cannot do progressive scan, is there any truth to this? My TV (Samsung Slimfit) suppsodely does 480p and 720p, is it just accepting the resolution and converting it to something else?

Sure it can do it..the tv itself has plenty of resolution to fully resolve the 480p picture resolution.

It's accepting it and upconverting it to 1080i. CRT's are perfectly capable of progressive scanning, most just don't.

All HD CRTs can truely do 480P. 720P is possibly another story.

 

[like.no.other.]

All CRT monitors are progressive up to more than 1920x1080p60. Today most CRT HD displays

480p natively. 720p is possible on a TV but not yet created or even being considered.

No, some CRT HDTVs don't display 480p, but instead convert it to an interlaced resolution (1080i or 960i, usually).
