is 1080hp always the best way?
i have a projector that's HD capable running on 720HP am i missing out? it's just for my room (well garage turn into my room) but i hear that 1080p is not always the best way to go for anyone. why is that? it's an inFocus IN72 06'
1080, 720, 480...
All of these are standard measure for TV screen resolution.
What you have to look at isn't the numbers but what you need. If you are simply watching TV that is not High Definition, you theoretically can have something that only puts out 480i.
If you own, say, a Blu-Ray Player, having something capable of 1080p is really nice, because you can see a much sharper picture. However, if you are using a previous generation gaming system, 720p may be more than the game can give.
First things, there are two types of information with any measure. 1080p is the current "top" for the consumer market.
Under this, there is a selection of 5 more standard settings - 1080i, 720p, 720i (all HDTV), 480p (EDTV), and 480i (standard tv). That probably sounds like a lot of mumbo-jumbo, so I should explain what it really is.
The number (like, 720) is how many vertical pixels are presented. The "i" or "p" designation is how it is put on screen. The "i" means it is Interlaced, or, every other line gets refreshed each cycle. The "p" means it is Progressive, which means the whole screen is refreshed at once.
You can test this with your monitor settings, but the larger the number on your pixel setting, the crisper your computer can look. Same story with TV.
Now, the next big part is setting it based on the input. If you have an Xbox360 or PS3 or Blu-Ray, you can get higher definition images out of them, and your projector will show you how much better it can look. Should you be watching DVD movies, you won't see anything better with using 720p.
With the initial question, 1080p is the best available. But, if you don't have the source that can keep up with it, its like having the fastest car and never shifting out of first gear.
I hope this makes sense, and is helpful.
