Question about 1080i DLP
We recently bought a 73 inch DLP HDTV for our house and I started to research the specifics on the difference between interlaced and progressive signals. I came across this article: http://www.engadgethd.com/2006/07/24...080i-and-1080/ that says:
Jam it back in, in the dark. |
Yes, these TVs take the interlaced signal, deinterlace it to progressive and scale it to whatever resolution the set has. Even if the set can't actually display 1080i natively, it's listed as a capability for signal input, because you need to know what kind of signals you can send to the TV. For example if a set only lists 1080i as a supported input signal, you can not send a 1080p one and expect it to work, even if the panel itself might be 1080p.
There's nowhere I can't reach. |
Ah okay, so the listed resolutions are the signal input capabilities. I always thought they were what resolutions the TV could display. Thanks.
This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |
I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body? The text is part of the image and the two squires aren't exactly even. |
I guess I should've explained it better. When I said "I always thought they were what resolutions the TV could display" I thought a TV listing 1080i meant it displays it in 1080i instead of being able to take 1080i and displaying it in its native resolution. Sorry for the confusion, but thanks for clearing it up, Metal Sphere.
I was speaking idiomatically. |
How ya doing, buddy? The text is part of the image and the two squires aren't exactly even. |
