Hi, sifus.

I had bought Panasonic plasma TH-P42X10k, a HD ready with 1024 x 768 pixels.
Applicable scanning format:
525 (480)/60i
525 (480)/60P
625 (576)/50i
625 (576)/50P
750 (720)/60P
1125 (1080)/50i
1125 (1080)/60i
1125 (1080)/24P (HDMI only)
1125 (1080)/50P (HDMI only)
1125 (1080)/60P (HDMI only)

I had connected Philips DVD player dvp3126k with component cable to the plasma. The displays only show 576i. Am I supposed to get 576i or better display of 720 or 1080?
Or am I messing up with the setting?

Btw, what is 50i & 50P?
