Upconverting a 1080i signal to 1080p: Can I get this TV to upconvert the signal to 1080p, and if so, how?

I think certain DVD's are able to be broadcast in 1080P and you may need a special dvd player to do that, but at the moment, cable broadcasts are only able to output 1080i. However, broadcasting in 1080p is in the works just not there yet. Fortunately, because the TV is 1080p ready, it won't be obsolete by the time broadcasting catches up with the capabilities of the TV.

I don't for a minute believe this TV is 1080, but for composite inputs I get a pretty good picture quality out of mine. Have you checked the source?

As far as I know nothing is even broadcast in 1080p. I've tested both connections Component and hdmi with my HD cable which is 1080i and the difference is not even visible.

The native resolution of this tv is 720p so everthing gets converted to this resolution (1080p, 1080i, 525, etc.) when displayed.

Robert, I am not sure. I have a smaller version of this converter. I was trying it with my Direct TV receiver box to see if I could change my display settings and I kept getting an error message saying my TV was not HD compatible which is true as my TV does not have any HDMI inputs. So no, I could not go from 480 to 1080 in my situation. Sorry I couldn't be of more help. Good luck!

I got out my Xbox 360 component cable and decided to check it out so I could answer your question and because I was curious, too. No, it does not support 1080p over the component video input. It should still look good at 1080i and it does allow the option of disabling over-scan on 1080i just like it does on 1080p. By the way, I actually had the Xbox 360 configured for 1080p on the component connection for a different device that does support 1080p and had to switch the cable off of HD to get picture so that I could figure out how to navigate to the screen mode option to take it off 1080p. I'd previously found that it does not support 1080p over the VGA input either. If you just must have 1080p with your existing Xbox 360, you could try a component to HDMI or VGA to HDMI converter box (I'd only trust a converter box to work right, not those converter cables some sell for those conversions). Be sure it either says it supports 1080p or 1920x1080 @ 60Hz (probably more applicable for VGA to HDMI) for input and output, as some don't support 1080p output.

Micheal Meyer is correct. Mine works fine at 1080P over VGA from the 360. Just got to get rid of the not supported message. See my reply to the post "X-Box 360 1080p doesnt work with this TV"

Refer to tech specs at http://www.vizio.com/e320vl.html#techspecs which has "Signal Compatibility: 1080i, 720p, 480p, 480i". Notice NO 1080P.

The included HDMI cable does not upscale the signal. Seiki did announce one that actively upscales in the cable, but the one included with the tv simply supports the resolution on the tv. The TV itself has a scalar that upscales lower resolution stuff.If you have a PC you can force 120hz refresh at 1080p, I haven't tried a console.

The TV includes a standard HDMI cable. I think up conversion must be done by onboard electronics in the TV itself, not the cable. Certainly the HDMI cable carries a 4k signal.

Does anyone know how to switch from 1080p to 720 my box doesnt allow oit for some reason... This thing needs a manual.

I think it will upconvert any video source to 1080p. I am reading the info and I have bought it from amazon, but I haven't receive it yet.It won't improve the image as long as you don't have a good video source like HDMI. HDMI and component cables provide up to 1080i resolution (similar to 720p). Blue ray and PS3 are the only source with pure 1080p.Just make sure your TV supports 1080p, otherwise it won't make any difference.

dont u mean --- signal because that standard requires 1080 horizontal pixels. the tv has 1366 vertical so u must have made a typing error raf

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

don't use hdmi. use mini displayport ("Mini DisplayPort to DisplayPort Cable" is like $5 on amazon) to display 2560 x 1080 perfectly.
