    hey i was wondering if the 1080i or 1080p on a Philips Dvd player really matters if i am playing Divx DVD's. Well, does the dvd player improve/upconvert the quality of an .avi dvd? Also what's better a 1080i or 1080p or an hd dvd player?

    no it doesn't,because your file won't be 1080i or 1080p

    Yes it will if its a upconverting DVD Player

    hd-dvd is dead blu-ray won the format war. hd-dvd and blu-ray have the best picture quality but you have to have a hd-dvd or a blu-ray store bought dvd to notice the difference.1080p is a little sharper than 1080i

    i cant remember where i got the text above...sry i had it saved in a .txt file and i just can't remember its source.....probably due to the lack of sleep......anyway you should really swallow down all that info epically the link, read it, it'll make things a lot clearer for you....then if you have specific questions you can go ahead and ask them:)

    in short 1080p is better but 1080i is used more often by a long shot:)
