PS3 As Player (some noob questions) - Blu-ray Forum

beyondHighDef · 01-24-2007, 11:10 PM

Finally got enough money to buy a ps3 60gb, i'll use it for music, gaming, movies. (my neighboors are complaining that music too loud.) By law i can listen all i want untill 9pm, so in their face!

Anyways, i do not have an HDTV, so im going to use my PC screen
which is Samsung 225bw WSXGA 1680x1050. I'll get an HDMI to DVI cable
but people say that i cant watch movies Blu ray in 720p? Why.

Why cant i watch 720p movies BD on my screen?

i forget the exact resolution numbers of 720p. however, the bigger issue is if ur monitor is hdcp compatible. assuming it is, you'll be fine.
