I have a 1080p Westy LCD.  Maybe there's a connection here.<br><br>Brian]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[bfos]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 27th 2006 11:55AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Component looks better than HDMI on Samsung's BD-P1000]]></title><link>http://www.engadgethd.com/2006/06/27/component-looks-better-then-hdmi-on-samsungs-bd-p1000/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgethd.com/2006/06/27/component-looks-better-then-hdmi-on-samsungs-bd-p1000/</guid><description><![CDATA[One of the reasons why HDMI 1.3 is so important is because of issues like this. Saying a TV is "native 1080p" right now is misleading; currently, most sets achieve 1080p by interpolating the 1080i feed, even if a Blu-Ray player is set to output 1080p. This is why 1st gen HD-DVD players currently output 1080i only. I expect a marked difference between 1080i and 1080p won't appear until HDMI 1.3 players and sets start hitting the market.<br><br>Sony's 1st party Blu-Ray player was delayed the very week the HDMI 1.3 spec was finalized. I don't think that's a coincidence.<br><br>N]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Natiahs]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 27th 2006 12:27PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Component looks better than HDMI on Samsung's BD-P1000]]></title><link>http://www.engadgethd.com/2006/06/27/component-looks-better-then-hdmi-on-samsungs-bd-p1000/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgethd.com/2006/06/27/component-looks-better-then-hdmi-on-samsungs-bd-p1000/</guid><description><![CDATA[I'm sorry, why would I believe anything not positive about manufacturer A saying something about manufacturer B? Isn't this worse than listening to a non-manufacturer being paid by a manufacturer to make its conclusions pro-paychecker?]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[GhostDoggy]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 27th 2006 3:58PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Component looks better than HDMI on Samsung's BD-P1000]]></title><link>http://www.engadgethd.com/2006/06/27/component-looks-better-then-hdmi-on-samsungs-bd-p1000/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgethd.com/2006/06/27/component-looks-better-then-hdmi-on-samsungs-bd-p1000/</guid><description><![CDATA[i have the bd-p1000 i can't wait to try that out and see it the picture looks better not using the hdmi cable i will let all you guys know what happens<br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[derek]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 28th 2006 10:48AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Component looks better than HDMI on Samsung's BD-P1000]]></title><link>http://www.engadgethd.com/2006/06/27/component-looks-better-then-hdmi-on-samsungs-bd-p1000/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgethd.com/2006/06/27/component-looks-better-then-hdmi-on-samsungs-bd-p1000/</guid><description><![CDATA[ok so i just tried it out with a bunch of blu-ray movies and i can say that there is nothing to this idea that the component looks better than hdmi. I tried the hdmi and the component both over 1080i and the hdmi looked better, not that much better but still better]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[derek]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 28th 2006 11:27AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Component looks better than HDMI on Samsung's BD-P1000]]></title><link>http://www.engadgethd.com/2006/06/27/component-looks-better-then-hdmi-on-samsungs-bd-p1000/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadgethd.com/2006/06/27/component-looks-better-then-hdmi-on-samsungs-bd-p1000/</guid><description><![CDATA[derek above says that 1080i HDMI looks as good as component.  Bill Hunt mentioned that he was trying 1080p.  Now I've heard that this player converts from 1080p  (for 1080p encoded discs) to 1080i, and then back again to 1080p.  Maybe it's this 1080p conversion that's causing the quality loss, not the hdmi output itself?  Just a thought.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Matthew]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Jun 28th 2006 7:28PM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
