It should. Some boxes change the menu option of 1080i or 720 to 480i at random times. maybe you have one of those defective boxes like I have.
do what the last poster stated and that should fix the issue. remember the steps in case the box changes the settings again.

You must not be using a Vizio upstairs. Not that this is your problem. But Vizio PQ isnt that great in my opinion. Sounds like a bad dct. Try taking the box from upstairs and moving it downstairs. If your picture looks better, then you know for sure that its the dct, if not...
