Angry Why 480p only?

The manual for the Panasonic DMP/BD10 player says "some discs prohibit high definition output from component video out terminals. In this case, video resolution is converted and output as 480p."

Why is this?

How common is this?

I have four HDTVs, but the one where I want to use my Panny Blu-ray player (65" Mitsubishi rear projection) does not have an HDMI connector. Its component video inputs should handle 1080i, but it looks like the movie makers are against me.
