Omar, how is the SD content? Also, a previous thread was questioning if Samsung is misleading the public with the functionality of the 2 component inputs. Can you confirm or deny? Thanks!

"In the past, Samsung would really mess with it's 'input' terminology... I had the PPM50H2 (50-inch plasma) and it claimed to have 2 component inputs, 2 RGB inputs, and the normal composite and S-Video inputs. Sounds great on paper, but what they did was combine: One of the RGB inputs and both of the component inputs into one one set of H/V/R/B/G connectors So, for video, the Samsung really only had one DB-15, one composite, one s-video, and one set of H/V/R/B/G connectors. It was pretty annoying. If the same signal feed switched from progressive to interlaced (i.e. XBOX does this quite frequently), it would not auto-detect the change, so you would have to press the appropriate 'video' button the witch to the the non-interlaced "component 1" setting.
Now... that was how Samsung WAS... this model looks to clearly have 2 sets of Component jacks... I would hate to think one of those jacks are limited to 480i and the other limited to "480p/720p/1080i". The website and PDF show different information... The website says that one component jack is 480i, where the other is 480p/1080i (no 720p). On the brochure side, the text states: component 1 is 480i and component 2 is 480p/1080i/720p. However, the little diagram of the jacks give the impression that both component 1 and component 2 can handle "480/480P/720P/1080."
If it was true that component 1 was limited to 480i and that component 2 was limited to 480P/720P/1080i... What would happen in the case of the Xbox? Would you not be able to see the interlaced picture if plugged into the "480p/720p/1080i" jacks?? According to that, even switching "video" selections wouldn't work (because they Xbox isn't plugged into the interlaced jacks)."
