I have a vizo 42 in hdtv and it goes up to 1080i so my display says 1080/60i I changed the format on my bd to 1080p and now its says 1080/60p how is this possible.

hey, before anybody comes and bashes you for posting in the wrong forum..

i'm not, but your tv might accept 1080p buy only produce 1080i. It scales it down to 1080i. Unless the TV does say it's 1080p, Full HD, etc etc.

Did you even read what he posted? Your right your display doesn't do 1080p. It just converts the 1080p signal into 1080i.

Correct me if I am wrong, but I really do not believe that our eyeballs can perceive the difference between 1080i and 1080p. I watched The Universe (which is 1080i) and it looked just as good as 1080p movies like The Dark Knight.
