I certainly hope so. Component supports 1080p.

I also find the number a bit high. I can understand it going up a good amount, but not quite that much, but it's possible.

As of 2 years ago there was no standard for Component video to support 1080p. HDMI became popular and I don't believe any standard has been made to this day. While 1080p is physically possible over component, I believe the only standard for american TVs is via HDMI or ATSC over the air broadcast (which only currently supports 30fps)

So, Component only supports 480i/p, 576i/p 720p, and 1080i and you must use HDMI for 1080p.

Well, I was getting 1080p through component for my 360, I believe.

DeltaXIII clarified the rest of the information that I had slightly wrong as I posted my information from years ago. You can read his post for details.




If you drop a PS3 right on top of a Wii, it would definitely defeat it. Not so sure about the Xbox360. - mancandy

Just because someone watches Blu-ray doesn't mean they have to have a HDTV.
