blu ray player 120hz output image
kscott_217
When I drop in a standard DVD and choose "display" in the upper left corner it says 420p. When I drop in a Blu Ray DVD and click "display" it still says 420p. I have a Philips 37" LCD 1080p TV. Any suggestions? I bought a HDMI cable, cheap on the Internet, Could that be the issue?
Answer
First of all, to respond to what someone above said, there is no need for HDMI cables to support 120Hz. The 120Hz refresh is handled by the television, not the source or the cable. Therefore, there is no truth when someone tells you your HDMI cable can't handle 120Hz. It's not even just a lie, it's completely stupid.
Anyhow, reasons why your TV may be display blu-ray at 420p (I'm more inclined to believe that you are referring to either 480p or 720p)
-HDMI output settings (as someone else mentioned) are incorrect
-Blu-ray is also connected via composite cables and TV is on wrong input
-TV does not fully support HDCP, causing a drop in resolution.
-HDMI cable not accurately receiving authentication handshake from the TV (this would be a problem w/ the TV, not the HDMI cable).
It may also help if you post in Additional Details the model of the blu-ray player so we can check specific settings regarding HDMI output display settings. Also, the model of your Philips TV so we can research any known issues. And, lastly, if it only happens on one movie - the name of that movie could help. If not, disregard as this is most likely not the issue.
It may be something as simple as changing a setting or applying a firmware update to your blu-ray player or television.

Are there desktops with blu-ray players and hdmi outputs?

Don't know very much about computers. Just bought a 47" 1080p 120hz tv, was wondering if I could use it as a monitor and watch blu-rays? If so which model would be best? Thanks.

You can install a blu-ray drive such as http://www.amazon.com/LITE--Blu-ray-Internal-Optical-iHOS104/dp/B002EE996Q/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1311195491&sr=8-1 on almost any desktop nowadays, and most graphics cards have HDMI out ports on them.
