He has a PS3 and wanted to know what setting would be best so I answered. And the explanation has been said many times over in several threads

Shall I repeat it?

if he selects 1080i his PS3-> tv goes 1080i -> 720 = 720

If he selects 720 his PS3 -> tv goes 480 -> 720 = 480


So 1080i



If and when the day comes that PS3 scales to 720 he then could select 720.

And yes it's true the native rate is the best, but you see, the BD is 1080 and the TV is 720, so either selecting 1080 now or 720 in the future, 1080 will be downscaled to 720, in BOTH cases.

So then it'll all depend on which is best, the PS3 downscaler or the TV downscaler.


Long enough answer now?
