Samsung Question. - Blu-ray Forum

My PS3 says:

"Maximum Resolution: 1080p"
"Do you want to accept this setting?"

This is my TV:
http://www.samsung.com/us/consumer/t...etail&tab=spec

What setting should I keep it on?

I thought the tv was only 720p/1080i.

The TV is 720P. However, it will accept an 1080P signal, doesn't display it at 1080P, just accepts the signal. It downgrades it to the TV's native resolution of 720P. Just set your PS3 to 720P. Then your TV doesn't have to do the extra work.

I thought 720P TVs were actually 768 lines so they were having to upscale a 720P signal anyway.

May be wrong, but doesn't setting the PS3 to 720P mean that it will downscale a 1080P BD to 720P and then the TV will have to upscale it to 768?

I would have thought it was better to let the PS3 output at 1080P and then there's only one scaling operation going on.

If I'm wrong someone please correct me.

I have the same exact TV in my Bedroom and I keep it at 1080p. It does actually look better to me then going with 1080i or 720p. I figured if it accepts the highest resolution why not keep it there it can't hurt anything.
