the only reason people belive that component cant do hd signals is down to sony-bs,

whilst a hdmi cable would be better based on experience of component looking washed out compaired to hdmi, but thats the only reason i say that
Think you might have got me wrong there. Component does output HD resolutions, which is how my 360 manages 720p. I never suggested it didn't. The point I was making is generally TV's without HDMI can accept HD resolutions but downscales them to fit either an SD screen or a 720p screen depending on the TV.

The term '1080i Compatible' is massively misleading in my opinion, I had an RP TV that was supposed to be 1080i compatible but could never display a full 1080i image.
