Can you force this to output at 720p? I need this to output 720p and NOT 1080p. If so, how do you switch it to 720p? I don't see a switch for that.

I don't think this switch can be adjusted at all. There was not evident way to configure it, so I don't think it can be set to 720p.

Your TV still has to be capable of handling the resolution of the PC's output. For example, if the PC output is 1080p and your TV cannot handle that video resolution, it will not work.

Steve, regarding your question. I'm not sure. I returned the 720 due to lack of tv tuner and replaced with the new operating system.

it will, of course, stay 1080p. the only real question is does it degrade the signal quality (which is what i was hoping to find out here). i guess i will find out once it arrives and i hook it up.

WAOOO zachary, i think you are wrong. i got mine and for my surprise it is 1080p. i have a hd dvd player and it is capable of handling the 1080p. My xbox 360 display the image at 1080i, and my HD signal too.So i dont understand why you said that this TV is not 1080p?IT IS...

Although I don't have a specific answer to this issue, I know that my TV will automatically select 720p over 1080i when I am using a Blu-Ray player or Xbox gaming system. 720p is actually a higher resolution image, because the picture is progressively scanned. Because my TV is only capable of a 1080i (interlaced) image, I cannot enjoy the full benefits of 1080p. The next best choice is then 720p, which is exactly what my system chooses to display by default.

I'm using game mode as well for gaming & it looks good, had to tweak the color saturation some though. I will be trying standard on my blu-ray input hopefully in the next few days, im hoping it works. I thought i had tried that but i honestly dont remember now if i did or not. Thanks for your input on your experience. I would have sent it back by now if I had not run across this post.

Is it trying to output 1080p HD? This adapter won't work with 1080p. I had to find this out the hard way. Plus, going through many adapters is not a good idea. I'd recommend buying just an HDMI to VGA adapter.

yes, 1080p is better than 720p and you will notice a difference even at 20ft away (given the source material/player/source is in 1080p)!

HDMI 3D is not supported, for regular 1080p you may have to recycle through a couple of other inputs, such as radio, and return to the input you desire. [Internal circuitry of electronic switches tent to "hang" on occasion] Good luck.

According to the document that was included, 1920x1080@60Hz is one of the supported resolutions, but I have not tested it since my PC does not have that resolution capability. I do not believe this unit will "up-convert" a non-HD signal to to 1080/720(i/p). I can tell you that I was pleased with the quality of the signal when I used it to display karaoke songs onto my 32" TV with my setting of resolution 1280x720@60Hz, true color 32bit, so I assume the quality would only improve if the source signal has a higher resolution. I hope this helps.

I didn't hook up a laptop but I hooked up my roku to the HDMI slot it came in @ 720p I went to my roku settings and changed the setting to 1080p-try changing your laptop setting

IT DOESN'T ! It allows the display to show video encoded as 1080p but does not display it as 1080p (1920x1080). it isn't even truelly 720p(1280x720) The display is 1080x600 so a conversion of the data from 1920x1080 is performed to downscale the video to 1080x600. On a device this small you may be able to notice the difference. But it will be quite watchable. The difference of 1080p to 720p to lesser formats are like the difference between lossless audio and mp3 for music files, most people don't notice what's missing (lost) and enjoy it all the same.

This TV is not 1080p. It is 720p/1080i. It can handle 1080p but I think it is still showing in 720p mode.

This display will not do 1080p. You can watch 1080p movies, iyour video player will scale them but it is a 720p display. Movies, and games, still look great.

the Tv is not recieving a truue digital signal.... you must connect thru the HDMI or colorstream ports and ALSO have a true digital signal coming in to get a 1080p on start up.... most DVD's (not blue ray) can not generate true 1080... and some cable networks you need a 1080 converter..... dish satelite or digital over the air should draw a 1080 response.. hope that helps... PS: my Tv works great... and has since I bought it.. Joe

Nguyen,Thanks for the reply. According to the manual on page 7 of the Connections section the component connection supports outputs of 480p, 720p, and 1080i. But on page 22 under Component Video Resolution it says:Even if you select "720p" or "1080i", images are output in 480p when you play DVD-Video.To me this means that if I play a Blu-ray disk (BD-Video) I will get 1080i on my Sony KF60WE610 (as long as the disk does not prohibit it). But if I play a regular DVD (DVD-Video) I will only get 480p. The CNET review of the player seems to confirm this information.If you have any additional information that refutes this conclusion please let me know. Thanks again for your input.
