My friend says that when she plays a movie on her blu-ray player, she gets a 1080p picture, even though her tv is only 720p. Is this possible?


Answer
No.

All HDTV's convert the input video signal to the resolution inside the TV.

This means your friends BluRay player is out-putting 1080 but the TV then down-converts the video to 720 for processing and display.

Same way if you feed the HDTV a standard def DVD which is 480. The TV will up-convert the video to 720.

What is the difference between 1080p and 1080i? Is 1080p only found in blu ray players?

I have an hdtv and my dvd, when connected to a hdmi cable, can have different resolutions including 1080p and 1080i. But I dont really see any difference between both of them. What is wrong? What is the difference? If I buy a blu ray player will the audio and visuals be better?


Answer
Well, 1080i and 1080p are different resolutions, some HDTV's are able to handle 1080p (high-end) resolutions, others are able to handle up-to a 1080i (mid) resolutions, still others are only able to display 720p (low-end) resolutions. The scale is as follows:

1) Best - 1080p - currently the best technology available (found in high-end HDTV's)
2) Middle - 1080i
3) Bottom - 720p

However, the difference between 1080p and 720p is barely noticable to the most trained eye.

To answer your question, you can only receive the resolution your hdtv is compatible with. Example if you have a 1080i HDTV and you buy a blu-ray player that is capable of displaying in 1080p, you will only get the 1080i resolution that your HDTV is compatible with.

And, I have both a 1080p and a 1080i hdtv and I cannot tell the difference.... Hope this helps.
