All I know is it looks pretty good to me. I have a Yamaha S661 DVD player (with HDMI, component and coaxial out) and a Phillips 55" PFL flat screen HDTV. I used component out because I did not want audio signals going to the TV also. My video signal goes directly from the DVD player directly to the TV and the audio from the DVD to the receiver. I got a Blu-Ray player for Christmas but never had the need for it until I accidently ordered some Blu-ray discs from Amazon. The video was sharper (I had to use HDMI for the video signal to the TV and still coax for the audio to the receiver). So I tried HDMI for the DVD video signal but it was the same, so I switched back. I just assumed Blu ray discs were superior. Can you tell me if my video is 1080p?
