2007 WFP and Digital Video (SD and HD) Content Support
Can someone clarify what HDTV and SDTV standards are supported by 2007WFP?
I am aware that its optimal resolution is 1680*1050, however, that does not translate to support of video standards. For example, a HD signal of 1080i has a resolution of 1920*1080, but most of the available plasma and LCD monitors do not carry such pixel capabilities. So, they downgrade the input signal of 1920*1080 to fit their native resolution, say 1024*1024.
In this manner, does the 2007 WFP support standards like 480p, 720p, 1080i from say a DVD player using a HDMI-DVI-D cable?
I cannot find this information anywhere in its specs.
Thanks.

I try the 1080i and get error like out of range, only 480p, 720p.
Guess that means it's better to watch through Windows/PC than direct from a set top box then cos Windows/software will downscale it.This might only be able to be answered by Australian customers, but with the digital set top boxes we have SD and HD channels; if SD is 480 and HD is 1080, then doesn't that mean we either get poor 480 quality or nothing at all (1080 out of range)? (ie, can't get 720)

I'm also curious about this. I wasn't aware TV's downgraded an input signal to match it's resolution, that would be really nice if the 2007WFP could do that for 1080i signals.
