Default need help on 1080 and 720

I am learning alot but my big question is do not all upscaling dvd players not send 1080 and 720 through the component cable. My tv only has 1 hdmi connection so I am trying to figure out what DVD player to buy. I am looking a Momitsu or a Skyworth but I have not heard of them. I was looking at a Pioneer DV-578A I know it is not the elite series but at a local electronic store I have been told that it is the same player but does not carry the 2 year warranty. thanks

I am not an expert on this, but as I understand it (and it is entirely dependent on the equipment you buy) that 480p is generally output via component. The upscaling to 720 and 1080 is via the DVI and/or HDMI output.

Then there is a dependancy on the TV. One must also understand what the TV will do to the signal from "which" input.

Best bet would get some choices and then go to the manufacturers website and view/download the manual.

Don't rely on any salesman ....they just don't know for sure !!!

Regards
