[QUOTE="bobtomay, post: 1295189, member: 24160"] ??? Never heard of 1020. What you found is why I have not suggested you use component on your Blu-ray player. Blu-ray is progressive. Blu-ray commercial movies are 1080p The players output 720p and 1080p. Component will downgrade to 720p because it is not capable of carrying 1080p, but it can do 1080i. Over-the-air TV (assuming yours is the same as here in the states) is broadcast in either 720p or 1080i, which is why component can be used on these boxes and not lose anything. It is not yet technically possible to broadcast over-the-air in 1080p. Here's a [URL="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Z-JXfyvlPh0"]youtube video[/URL] that's not too bad at explaining it all. Generally speaking, most would say that 720p is better for fast motion - such as football, while 1080i is better for watching things like nature shows. [/QUOTE]
