then refresh rate comes into play and 60fps / 120hz sudenly becomes 12fps displayed at 1920 x 1080 or yes 240hz @ 24fps whatever but you're never getting a full true 60fps the only thing that comes close is plasma but it's more or less a trick 60hz x 10 subfield yeah 60fps but not in a constant fluid stream more or less recycling frames for a smoother picture. I'd still take a plasma picture over LCD any day though :)
the 360 has maxed out? then what of the ps3? fucking morons look at how many inferior versions of games the PS3 has
Mafia 2 doesn't even have grass on the PS3 version and they had to dumb down other things to get a decent fps. All this rubbish about it having some hidden power is retarded.
@GuysSeriously That's called "Xbox Syndrome" on PS3. Look at the PS3 exclusives, they look insanely better than the small number of 360 exclusives. But graphics arent everything, gameplay is. music is part of it too.
@lol666 lol, did you even listen to him??? He said 24 f/s is more blur than full HD. I hope I don't have to explain to you why 30f/s is closer to 24f/s than to 60f/s. The conlusion that it can get kinda blurry if there is a lot of fast action.
oHH, I was playing mw2 on 1080i but with my sound I use an optical cable for i think 5.1 surrond sound... But when i got a new game it set back to 720 but then it switched to 1080p so i was like whats the diff. between i n p but now i know n that p is better for gamers like me
can u help i can get a 50 inc tv 1080i for the same price as a 40 inc 1080p tv what should i buy as i dont want to miss out on full hd but if there is no difference thern 50 would be nice also the 50 is a plasma and the 40 a LCD cheers anyone
For instance you record with camcorder on 1080i if your tv is 1080p it will be upscaled by the tv too 1080p. What he is saying about the framerate is wrong.
1080p = 25 frames in EU and 30frames in US
1080i = 50 frames in EU and 60frames in US
Now on a tv that is 1080p it has 1080 lines Vertically now if you have a 720p signal as input it wil either expand the 720p to 1080p or show 2 black bars under and above the film. So 1 frame has 720 lines every time that is centered on your screen.
Now on a tv 1080p with a 1080i signal as input. It wil show you 540 lines only like a shutter. so 1 line has input and 1 line doesnt. There for the frame rate is 2ce as fast. so Frame one wil show you all the EVENLY lines and the 2nd will show you all the ODDS.
i have a samsung LED 1080p TV and i can tell the diferece from my old 720p tv the 720p is blurrie and not bright and the 1080p is supper clear and i love the samsung blu ray theatre system its 1080p and kicks ass
Okay 720p is greater that 1080i because 1080i is actually 540 lines of info where as 720p is 720 lines of info. Then you get into the ultimate picture 1080p which is 1080 lines of information. But as technology goes I say we will be getting double that in 10 years. TV is turning into computer. How computers are obsolete after 3-6 months because the technology is evergrowing. So for people loving 1080i get 720p you'll be more satisfied
sorry, but this guy just doesn't know what he's talking about. 1080i and 1080p are diferent resolutions, period. interlaced and progressive are different.
he's not dissing just clarifying. he's right though. he seems to know as much as a comsumer. the DOTS are pixels and with digital displays you are no longer talking about lines. he is smashing digital and analog terms together when there is a distinct difference in how the resolution is defined.
@andy16666 I know it is 5 months later, but you have the numbers backwards. A 1080i gives you a frame every 2 seconds because you process the even lines in one second, then the odd lines the next.. They end up calling this a field. So they will advertise 1080i/60 which means 60 fields, not frames, which would make it 1080i/30. 1080p produces all the lines in one pass, so you are capable of 60 frames per second, 1080p/60, because it does not have to take 2 seconds to produce 1 frame.
@andy16666 I don't understand why they don't film more content in 60fps. Is it about storage? That shouldn't really be a problem in a high budget film.
i have a 1080i and a 1080p and they look the same at least i can't tell the difference the same with the damn hdmi cables bought a 50 dlls. and a 10 dlls. one they are the same no difference.
The difference between 1080i and 1080p has nothing to do with frame rat.e.. You can get a 1080i signal at either 30 or 60 fps, likewise you can get a 1080p signal at 24 or 30 fps. No device can currently handle 60 fps at 1080p to my knowledge, and content of this nature would be scarce at best. With 1080i you get 1080 lines as you said, but only half are on the screen at any time. Essentially 1080i and 1080p are identical to the human eye, except when it comes to motion. Overall 1080p is better.
I hate -- absolutely hate -- interlacing. Interlacing is an antiquated technique that was useful in the early days of TV for getting around technology limitations of the time. It's such a tragedy that modern digital TV has interlaced 1080.
Those of you who can't see the difference between 1080i and 1080p probably have a set that does de-interlacing or some other form of post-processing. That helps a lot, but you're still getting an inferior picture to 1080p.
dude ur dumb lol 1080i and 1080p is the same......just one is interlaced and the other is progessive..shit looks the same. full hd my ass....1080 and 720 looks the same in my opinion...
got a 22 inch monitor thats 720p which i played my ps3 on and watched my blurays. Went out in a got 37 inch 1080p tv 3 months ago......no difference...1080p is a rip off...blur rays still look the same and my games do. by the way...nothing on cable tv is displayed at 1080 anyway
yep i know. i know exactly what you mean, most 1080p movies dont really look better than 720p, and as far as gaming on them most games on the xbox and ps3 are made 720p native and upconverted to 1080, its pritty much a scam unless you use it for what i do the pc. all games on pc are 1080 or above when you select the resolution in the menus and movie wise the only ones iv seen in 1080 that accually look better than 720 are the CG movies (wall-e monsters inc, any computer generated movie)
1080p is TRUE HD quality. If you can, go with that (unless you are buying a small set like a 19 inch or less because you will not see a difference on these).
I had a Sony Bravia 32" but purchased a Sony Bravia 46" for $300 (yep three hundred) a month of use and its amazing!!! haven't got a chance to watch a blue ray yet nevertheless i do believe there is a big difference bewteen the 1080i and the 1080p judging from the 2 TVs I had
it depends on your PC. a higher resolution will cause a smaller fps (frames per second) rate, and that will slowdown the game.
so, basically, if you have an fps lower than 60 with some game, you should probably try playing it in a lower resolution. 'cause no one wants a game that looks pretty but keeps freezing.
go to ur settings for video on ur 360 and see....btw make sure ur not just using compsite av cables like the ones that come with the 360 arcade version.
720p, because the pixels array is 720p. If it's a good projector it'll try to emulate 1080i and display it as 720p. Similar to looking a high res photo on a low res screen.
1080i (Interlaced) is better for Not very fast moving pictures or still pictures , but on things like gaming consoles that doesn't matter because of Hz does it?
Well, you can make 1080i in 1080p if both interlaced fields are in sync, known as psf. But you do sacrifice smoothness, because you have 25p or 30p instead of 50i or 60i.
XBOX DONT NEED 1080P. 1080p is only for blueray. xbox runs on 720p if you have a playstation 3 ,you should get a 1080p for great blueray. and 1080p games.
Look mate i dont know where you get your info from but the Xbox 360 does display a full complete 1080p picture. Have you ever heard of HD DVD This was the technology that Microsoft flowed with. Unfortunately it didnt prevail over Bluray but thats beside my point. HD DVD was full 1080p and would easily display lower resolutions regarding your HDTV type.
the xbox 360 cant display true 1080p, it may have an hdmi port now but their hdmi ports are 1.2 and you can only get tru 1080p on hdmi 1.3 ports...besides, the 360 is maxed out already
Every single HDMI version can do uncompressed 1080p. The difference is that 1.2 doesn't support the new audio codecs.
And find me a link where it is says "the 360 maxed out!" Because fanboys have been stating that crap since 2006. We are at 2009 (going to 2010) and the X360 is still going strong.
i dont have to find you a link, its so damn obvious that its maxed out...its like the xbox360 is a hamburger and the ps3 is an angus, which one would you prefer?....thus saying that the 360 is maxed out, i have one and thats what i think of that piece of shit of mine
@MegaShot419 The xbox 360 has been maxed out since 2006... Yes it is still going strong tho and thats because microsoft is genius at keeping things going strong example windows xp.... Its all about what company has the best online experience when it comes to gaming and thats were the xbox smashes the ps3 but the ps3 has not been maxed out but the first game to take advantage of the consoles hardware is uncharted 2, it almost looked as good as what my $7,000 gaming computer puts out. "almost" :(
No it has not been maxed out. How good a game looks depends on the game engine and the software. Alan Wake is comparable to UC2 in graphics (IMO though, it's art style is MUCH better) and there are games like Gears 3 which will raise the bar in graphics. But please don't argue with me over a 11 month old comment. That's just stupid.
@MegaShot419 Omg, game developers at e3 said the xbox 360 has been maxed out for years now, but they said there has been alternative ways that they have taken to increases the graphics of what we see and not what we try and look at in detail.
dvd is just digital, it doesn't matter if the tv is 1080. Now if your planning on getting a bluray player and get rid of your old dvd player, then 1080p is the way to go. If not, then just keep using the tv you got now until you plan on watching HD (which is about a 6 times clearer picture than dvd's).
Depends, over 42 inches; 1080p is better. want to play action games? 1080p is better (also refresh rate should be higher than 60hz for action games). Low on funds? 1080i might be better for you.
broadcast stations send out 1080i signal. what that means is you are still getting a true 1080 picture. the difference is the frame-rate. they are sending out 30 frames per second.
the ONLY way to get full 60 frames per second in stunning 1080 TODAY is by blu-ray.
60 frames per second means the motion will be clearer (say for sports or high action videos).

You got to be kidding. 1080i have similar pixel count as 720p yet 720p dont have artifacting on high motion scenes.
1080p is an absolute winner on quality and if blur is quality for you then just watch rmvb videos instead of h264 ones...

Yea, it's more because it comes out clearer do to the refresh rate and 60fps. Makes the experience or smooth and crisper.

This guy doesn't even know what he's talking about.
The difference between 1080i and 1080p isn't frame rate (1080i can be rendered at 60 frames per second, if your TV can deinterlace well ofcourse).
Once 1080i is deinterlaced though, you only get 540 lines of resolution (but still keep the 1920 horizontal lines).
So at any given time, with 1080i your only getting a 1920 X 540 image instead of a 1920 X 1080 image.

what do you recommend for me?
1080i or 1080p
shinnyteeth 2 years ago
Or you planning to get a HDTV or do you already have one?
If you already have an HDTV stick with 1080p obviously.
But if your buying one and you don't want to spend a couple hundred bucks extra. Just stick with a 720p/1080i set.

Im hooking this newwer TV to my xbox 360 so i can have HD.
Can some one send me a meessage or reply to this about the 1080i and 1080p I
shinnyteeth 2 years ago
Hi.
1080p is TRUE HD quality. If you can, go with that (unless you are buying a small set like a 19 inch or less because you will not see a difference on these).
I hope this helps :)

1080i is better with most xbox360 games and it's cheaper too :)

This is bothering me does a higher resolution such as 1080p affect the game , dus it cause more slowdown for the game?
matte334 3 years ago
it depends on your PC. a higher resolution will cause a smaller fps (frames per second) rate, and that will slowdown the game.
so, basically, if you have an fps lower than 60 with some game, you should probably try playing it in a lower resolution. 'cause no one wants a game that looks pretty but keeps freezing.

my projector is 720p LCD native but up scales to 1080i What should I set my B Ray HD DVD & HD Cable box to? Thanx
AMOVIEROOM 3 years ago
720p, because the pixels array is 720p. If it's a good projector it'll try to emulate 1080i and display it as 720p. Similar to looking a high res photo on a low res screen.

1080i (Interlaced) is better for Not very fast moving pictures or still pictures , but on things like gaming consoles that doesn't matter because of Hz does it?

do all widescreen tv's have 1080?
djarnexus 3 years ago
The short answer is yes BUT you have 2 choices. 1080i or TRUE HD which is 1080p.
Just one notch down from the top, 1080i produces 1080 horitontal interfaced scan lines.
Regardless of which high-end HD technology you buy, most cable companies are only capable of transmitting using 1080i or 720p.
The only REAL way to see true 1080p quality is by watching a blueray disc (and from what alot of you have said in comments, through some xbox games.
coffeehigh420 3 years ago
oh =P then I think the widescreen tv in my house is 1080i.
because sometimes you can notice if you look really closely... some "artifacts" from the frame passed (or atleast I notice it).
djarnexus 3 years ago
you mean the great PS3 that plays Blu-ray and not xbox
nfs5676 3 years ago
Well, you can make 1080i in 1080p if both interlaced fields are in sync, known as psf. But you do sacrifice smoothness, because you have 25p or 30p instead of 50i or 60i.
TVperson1 3 years ago
XBOX DONT NEED 1080P. 1080p is only for blueray. xbox runs on 720p if you have a playstation 3 ,you should get a 1080p for great blueray. and 1080p games.

nfs5676 3 years ago
Look mate i dont know where you get your info from but the Xbox 360 does display a full complete 1080p picture. Have you ever heard of HD DVD This was the technology that Microsoft flowed with. Unfortunately it didnt prevail over Bluray but thats beside my point. HD DVD was full 1080p and would easily display lower resolutions regarding your HDTV type.
philandstace 3 years ago
the xbox 360 cant display true 1080p, it may have an hdmi port now but their hdmi ports are 1.2 and you can only get tru 1080p on hdmi 1.3 ports...besides, the 360 is maxed out already
snowballsk 2 years ago
WRONG.
Every single HDMI version can do uncompressed 1080p. The difference is that 1.2 doesn't support the new audio codecs.
And find me a link where it is says "the 360 maxed out!" Because fanboys have been stating that crap since 2006. We are at 2009 (going to 2010) and the X360 is still going strong.
MegaShot419 2 years ago 6
i dont have to find you a link, its so damn obvious that its maxed out...its like the xbox360 is a hamburger and the ps3 is an angus, which one would you prefer?....thus saying that the 360 is maxed out, i have one and thats what i think of that piece of shit of mine
snowballsk 2 years ago
You can't find me a link, because you have no proof :/
Again, fanboys have said that back in 06. It's 09 and the X360 games get better and better.
The PS3 is just way to overrated when it comes down to performance.
And it's not obvious, especially when X360 games continually advance in graphics. Have you seen screenshots of Forza 3?

@MegaShot419 The xbox 360 has been maxed out since 2006... Yes it is still going strong tho and thats because microsoft is genius at keeping things going strong example windows xp.... Its all about what company has the best online experience when it comes to gaming and thats were the xbox smashes the ps3 but the ps3 has not been maxed out but the first game to take advantage of the consoles hardware is uncharted 2, it almost looked as good as what my $7,000 gaming computer puts out. "almost" :(
garretts228 1 year ago
@garretts228
No it has not been maxed out. How good a game looks depends on the game engine and the software. Alan Wake is comparable to UC2 in graphics (IMO though, it's art style is MUCH better) and there are games like Gears 3 which will raise the bar in graphics. But please don't argue with me over a 11 month old comment. That's just stupid.
MegaShot419 1 year ago
@MegaShot419 Omg, game developers at e3 said the xbox 360 has been maxed out for years now, but they said there has been alternative ways that they have taken to increases the graphics of what we see and not what we try and look at in detail.

so whats a dvd spit out? if all you do is watch dvds wouldnt you want to match your tv to the dvd output?
thielenm 3 years ago
dvd is just digital, it doesn't matter if the tv is 1080. Now if your planning on getting a bluray player and get rid of your old dvd player, then 1080p is the way to go. If not, then just keep using the tv you got now until you plan on watching HD (which is about a 6 times clearer picture than dvd's).

Xplorer1147 3 years ago
You haven't got it quite yet :)
1080p is usually 30 fps
1080i is usually 60 fps
This means that although in 1080i you get half the data on the screen at anyone time, you get it twice as fast.
Also cinema 24 fps do not give you a blurry picture but you get a more jittery motion as opposed to the 30 fps smooth look.

So i should buy a 1080p instead of 1080i ?
ttp252 3 years ago
Depends, over 42 inches; 1080p is better. want to play action games? 1080p is better (also refresh rate should be higher than 60hz for action games). Low on funds? 1080i might be better for you.
SrgtRock11 3 years ago
well i found out what i wanted to know. ty
JTNC07 3 years ago
one thing to consider...
broadcast stations send out 1080i signal. what that means is you are still getting a true 1080 picture. the difference is the frame-rate. they are sending out 30 frames per second.
the ONLY way to get full 60 frames per second in stunning 1080 TODAY is by blu-ray.
60 frames per second means the motion will be clearer (say for sports or high action videos).
i hope this helps !!
coffeehigh420 3 years ago
I don't think anything has been shot on 60 fps at 1080.
