1080p input TV?
Simple question for you HDTV'ers....
Would you buy a TV now that is 1080p native res, but can't actually accept a 1080p signal, like many cheaper ones currently out there? Or spring extra bucks and get one that can accept true 1080p with no deinterlacing? |

As long as the display properly deinterlaces an incoming 1080i signal...I don't see why not.

Considering I watch a lot of network TV and most network HD is 1080i, my answer would be yes as long as the deinterlacer is a good one. That is far more important than being able to accept a 1080p input signal.
Which brings us to what 1080p input signal? I was assuming you were refering to a 1080p/60 input signal, but if you were speaking of a 1080p/24 input signal and the TV would refresh at 72 Hz then yes, if you got the bucks go for the 1080p/24. That will assure judder free display, but then there is only a few TV that will input 1080p/24. Overall for normal TV and DVD watching a set that will take 1080i and 720p is just fine. |

Check out this link: 1080p HDTVs
Also check out the other links it refers to. There is a list of HDTVs that pass the interlace test in one of them and if you set is on the passed list, then I'm sure it is fine. |
