    NOOB QUESTION ALERT

    whats the difference between 1080 and 720? i know obviously 1080 ius better or whatever, but how can i go about finding if my tv can take it?

    i hear all this talk about hdmi and i dont think im fully up on it

    i just use the cable that came with my 360 pro console, have it switched to HD and in it goes, would a hdmi make it look even better?

    Savemejebus has the exact same problem as you mate. Same TV too. Possibly a compatability issue there.

    It may look slightly crisper due to hdmi being a digital input rather than component which is analogue. Also when you connect to a hdtv using component it upscales dvds to 576p whereas if you connect using a hdmi cable it upscales to 1080i. I think this is due to copyright issues.As far as i know you can get a hdmi lead in tesco for 10euro

    As Flaccus said I have the same tv and have the same issue. Tried different hdmi cables and messed around with every setting available. Have googled a bit, it seems to be a problem with a few different brands of tv and some amps. Supposedly MS are working on an update. I don't mind too much as tbh 1080i via HDMI looks better than 1080p via component (on my tv anyway). The only real disappointment has been HALO 3, so far...

    well turns out id been playing my 360 on 480p. Shocking, i changed it to 1080i and omg the difference :)

    and to think i thought 360 looked amazing on 480, think of what i think now :)
