because its only HD Ready its 720p and 1080i. Its not a full hd tv

 

1080HD isn't ticked in the specifications so i'd imagine it's 720p

 

go back in look at the specs it says 1080 no

 

i know it says 1080 no

but it didnt say what it was

i was thinking of going back and getting the 1080p hd ready model what benefits does that have or would i be better staying with what i have, its an extra 80 euro

 

If its only an extra 80euro i would pay it. You might aswell go for the better model. I have a 1080i tv and my friend has an full hd and i do see the difference. Its only a slight difference though

 

its 720p http://www.superfi.co.uk/index.cfm/page/moreinfo.cfm/Product_ID/5149

 

Any tv that is HD Ready is a 720p/1080i and not a 1080p tv

 

1080p will give you progressive scan which smooths out the picture on bluray and xbox, wont make any difference to normal tv or hd tv at the moment,but worth the extra for the future

 

im a bit confused

but my friend has a 1080p upscaling dvd and when he puts ona dvd the picture quality is fantastic something about compressing it

 

Thats because it has upscaling capability. I presume your referring to the samsung model which they're selling real cheap in the electrical stores. It is supposed to upscale the picture from SD to HD. Only problem I found with these is that they don't play VCD's but will play H.264 and Divx.

 

no its my sony dvd recorder has the 1080p upscaling , not the samsung tv but i dont know how to cahnge t0 720 so ican watch a full screnn on my tv its only smalll

 

It's not a samsung tv I was referring to but a samsung DVD player with upscaling. I would imagine you can change that either through settings or press one of the colour buttons and see if one of them is a shortcut button for picture setup. Usually is one of them.

And maybe check that the settings for TV are the same on DVD plyer and TV settings.

 

the idea with upscaling was because normal dvd's looked so bad on large lcd screens through a scart, the hdmi will digitally scale the resolution up, a lot of movies arent broadcast in 16/9, there in 20/9 so thats why it doesnt fill the screen

 

its 1080i, its not full hd, samsung full hd is the 5 series up, this is the 4 series

 

thanks everybody and mooley but i just couldnt get it to work maybe some day i will work out how to do it, just keep watching them small for a while
