Added on February 14, 2008, 12:45 pmCinema Conversion

When SD resolution video recorded in interlace format is recorded on BD / DVDs, you can convert the video to progressive format. This is possible only when using a TV that supports progressive format. Video content can include video material (TV shows or animation) and film material (movies). Set for the type of video content to be played. In most cases, set to [Automatic].

Automatic Set to detect the difference between video material and film material and to select the best conversion mode for each material.
Video Always play in video material conversion mode.

Set when [Automatic] does not improve picture quality.


so set to "MOVIE" ???

Added on February 14, 2008, 12:47 pmDVD Upscaler
Adjust settings for upscaled output when playing a DVD. Upscaling is a feature that can be used to enable content recorded at SD resolution (NTSC: 480p / 480i, PAL: 576p / 576i) to be displayed in HD resolution (1080p / 1080i / 720p). Because the video content of commercial DVDs is recorded in SD resolution, higher resolution video can be achieved by enabling upscaled output.

Off Set to disable upscaled output.
Double Scale* Set to upscale and display with double horizontal and vertical dimensions without changing the proportions.
Normal Set to upscale and display at a size that matches the screen size.
Full Screen Set to upscale and display at full screen by changing proportions and stretching the image

* This option can be used only when the video output setting of the PS3(tm) system is set to 1080p or 1080i.

Added on February 14, 2008, 12:49 pmHints
To use this feature, a TV that is compatible with HD input and output must be connected using an HDMI or component AV cable. Also, the video output setting of the PS3(tm) system must be set to 1080p, 1080i, or 720p.
When playing copyright-protected DVD content such as commercially available DVD-Video, an HDMI cable is required to upscale the video content.
If image quality is reduced or the image does not look right when upscaled, set this option to [Off].

Added on February 14, 2008, 1:41 pm[edit] 720p versus 1080i
Some broadcasters use 720p50/60 as their primary high-definition format; others use the 1080i standard. While 720p presents a complete 720 line frame to the viewer between 24 to 60 times each second (depending on the format), 1080i presents the picture as 50 or 60 partial 540 line "fields" per second (24 complete 1080-line fields, or "24p" is included in the ATSC standard though) which the human eye or a deinterlacer built into the display device must visually and temporally combine to build a 1080 line picture - in CRT type display. To get all 1080 interlaced lines to appear on the screen at the same time on a progressive high-definition display, the processor within the HD set has to weave together both 540-line segments to form the full-resolution frame. It does so by holding the first field in its memory, receiving the next field, then electronically knitting the two fields together. The combined fields are displayed at once as a complete 1080p frame. The main tradeoff between the two is that 1080i shows more detail than 720p for a stationary shot of a subject at the expense of a lower effective refresh rate and the introduction of interlace artifacts during motion.

While 1080i has more scan lines than 720p, they do not translate directly into greater vertical resolution. Interlaced video is usually blurred vertically (filtered) to prevent twitter. Twitter is a flickering of fine horizontal lines in a scene, lines that are so fine that they only occur on a single scan line. Because only half the scan lines are drawn per field, fine horizontal lines may be missing entirely from one of the fields, causing them to flicker. Images are blurred vertically to ensure that no detail is only one scan line in height. Therefore, 1080i material does not deliver 1080 scan lines of vertical resolution.

We still believe that when you're dealing with TVs 50 inches and smaller, the added resolution has only a very minor impact on picture quality. On a regular basis in our HDTV reviews, we put 720p (or 768p) sets next to 1080p sets, then feed them both the same source material, whether it's 1080i or 1080p, from the highest-quality Blu-ray and HD DVD players. We typically watch both sets for a while, with eyes darting back and forth between the two, looking for differences in the most-detailed sections, such as hair, textures of fabric, and grassy plains. Bottom line: It's almost always very difficult to see any difference-especially from farther than 8 feet away on a 50-inch TV....

Added on February 14, 2008, 1:48 pm....The extra sharpness afforded by the 1080p televisions he's seen is noticeable only when watching 1080i or 1080p sources on a larger screens, say 55 inches and bigger, or with projectors that display a wall-size picture. Katzmaier also says that the main real-world advantage of 1080p is not the extra sharpness you'll be seeing, but instead, the smaller, more densely packed pixels. In other words, you can sit closer to a 1080p television and not notice any pixel structure, such as stair-stepping along diagonal lines, or the screen door effect (where you can actually see the space between the pixels). This advantage applies regardless of the quality of the source.

so any ELITE here got 50 inches above LCD??

Added on February 14, 2008, 2:33 pm1. 1080p defined
1080p resolution--which equates to 1,920x1,080 pixels--is the latest HD Holy Grail. That's because 1080p monitors are theoretically capable of displaying every pixel of the highest-resolution HD broadcasts. On paper, they should offer more than twice the resolution of today's 1,280x720, or 720p, HDTVs, such as Samsung's HL-P5085W. Some companies, such as LG, refer to these super-high-res of sets as ultra-HD, while others prefer to substitute true or full for ultra.

2. Why 1080p is theoretically better than 1080i
1080i, the former king of the HDTV hill, actually boasts an identical 1,920x1,080 resolution but conveys the images in an interlaced format (the i in 1080i). In a tube-based television, otherwise known as a CRT, 1080i sources get "painted" on the screen sequentially: the odd-numbered lines of resolution appear on your screen first, followed by the even-numbered lines--all within 1/30 of a second. Progressive-scan formats such as 480p, 720p, and 1080p convey all of the lines of resolution sequentially in a single pass, which makes for a smoother, cleaner image, especially with sports and other motion-intensive content. As opposed to tubes, microdisplays (DLP, LCoS, and LCD rear-projection) and other fixed-pixel TVs, including plasma and LCD flat-panel, are inherently progressive in nature, so when the incoming source is interlaced, as 1080i is, they convert it to progressive scan for display.


IS THIS TRUE??

Added on February 14, 2008, 2:39 pmThe new 1080p projectors do have the potential to make this type of programming incrementally sharper than it will appear on most 720p projectors. There will not be a night and day difference, since 1080i signals compressed into 720p displays already look extremely good. But there is the potential for a slightly sharper image from HDTV 1080i broadcasts when using a 1080p projector.

Added on February 14, 2008, 2:40 pmPractically speaking, the most important new video sources that let you get the most out of a 1080p projector are the new high definition DVD formats, HD-DVD and Blu-ray, which are both native 1080p sources. HD-DVD and Blu-ray discs pack a full 1920x1080 resolution per frame of video, and they look their best when displayed on a native 1080p projector or flat panel display. The early adopters of these technologies are the ones who will derive the most immediate benefit from 1080p projectors in the short run. If you consider yourself to be a videophile or a serious hobbyist who spends money to stay out on the cutting edge of video technology, the new flock of 1080p projectors represent a whole new world of opportunity to upgrade your home theater that you won't want to miss.

Added on February 14, 2008, 3:15 pmNow, before we move on to interlaced vs. progressive, there's one other thing I'd like to point out that most people don't realize...

I've heard a lot of people say "I have XXX tv, and when I switch to 1080i I see a big difference in picture quality vs. 720p" Almost 98% of the time you see this statement, it's flat out false... In fact, it's IMPOSSIBLE in most cases for them to see a difference... Here's why...

If you have a microdisplay TV (i.e. DLP, LCD, or LCoS), or MOST plasma's and directview LCD's, and it DOESN'T say that it's 1080p, guess what? The MAXIMUM resolution it will support is 720p... Now I can here some people now, "That's bullcrap! I set my stuff for 1080i all the time"... Sure you do... That's because it WILL accept a 1080i signal, but the problem is, the display chip inside it only has 720 lines of resolution, so that 1080i signal just get's downscaled to 720p before it's displayed anyway... So switching between 1080i and 720p will have NO effect on the picture quality, other then 1080i will introduce motion artifacting which will make it look worse! (we'll get to this in a moment)...

If you have a CRT set, your LUCKY if it get's 720 lines of resolution.. Most don't support even that. They accept the signals, but can't really display anywhere near the level of detail that a microdisplay or plasma or directview lcd can... Now again, there's probably someone barking that their CRT set looks better then xxx set... This is BECAUSE of the loss of detail...

This is the same reason photographers have been shooting portraits with "soft focus" lens and/or filters for years... Because the DETAIL of a persons face RARELY ever looks "good"... The soft focus "blurs" the image, which looks MUCH more pleasing... The same applies with CRT sets... The "blur" or "softening" effect they have on signals often makes BAD signals look MUCH better... However, get a GOOD HD signal and it won't even come close to comparing....

So in other words, just because your set will ACCEPT a 1080i input, doesn't mean it DISPLAYS 1080 lines of resolution, almost CERTAINLY it displays 720 lines...

This post has been edited by megatron007: Feb 14 2008, 03:15 PM

Blu-ray movies will NOT output in 720p... They will ONLY output in 480i/p or 1080i/p. At least this is what I've been told, I haven't done any testing yet to prove this myself, and I will do so soon, but for now I'm going to take their word for it. Anyway, if this is so, then this means if you have a 720p native set and decide to disable 1080i, you'll need to RE-ENABLE it before playing blu-ray movies... Otherwise you'll only get 480p from them... Alternatively, especially if your on the edge of it making any difference anyway, you may want to just leave 1080i enabled... (had Sony left the original "order" of resolutions in place (i.e. 480i -> 480p -> 720p -> 1080i -> 1080p) this wouldn't have been a problem anyway, and honestly makes a lot more sense... I think they just caught so much heat from people that didn't understand that their 720p set wasn't really displaying 1080i anyway, that they just changed it to appease them...
