I need some Help I got a 32 inch LCD 1080i Tv?

Question

Everything looks clear but when i play my 360 the resolution is Great but i noticed when i play games the edges seem a little Jagged its been bothering me for a moment already.

Anyone out there know how to fix this or to what settings to put it on ?

Answer 1

That is the result of buying a 1080i instead of a 1080p screen.

Your TV has interlaced scanning not progressive scanning.

If your TV does this with other hard wired devices such as a DVD player then i would suggest you get it looked at by a qualified  TV repairman as you may be starting to have problems with the way your TV is suppose to work.

Answer 2

Wait a minute....LCD panels are inherently 1080P and always will be...

Why convert it to 1080i UNLESS of course you mean you don't use HDMI input perhaps.....

Component Input just got converted to 1080P input this year...

And the REAL fact of the matter is, no matter how hard you try, there will always be ONE P to I to P conversion in your system, which won't change the picture and remove jaggies....

Besides....those square pixels on LCD panels won't magically go away either....

And the fact that your Game is digital with 1's and 0's creating your game should tell you how limited any improvement would be....

Oh...and One more thing....LCD panel TV sets READ 1080i, and 720p signals, they are NOT interlaced at all....you use HDMI with a game and that game is a PS3 and that unit will still give you a 720P game until they come OUT with a true 1080P game.....

So why the h**l worry about this stuff?

Don't Over-o****m your life....

Answer 3

Check the sharpness settings. Generally, the lower the better for LCDs.

Put your 360 at 720p over component or at 1360x768 over VGA (a separate cable that costs $40 or so for the official one, cheaper brands do exist but the quality is more suspect).

There is no such thing as a 1080i LCD TV, LCDs are progressively scanning by nature, all that a "1080i LCD" really means is that the TV can take in a 1080i input, which all HDTVs can accept.
