Can someone help me understand which box needs to process the video signal to get a progressive scan picture? Some TV sales guys tell me that if the tv is HD ready, it will re-process the signal from any source to do progressive scanning. Some others say you need to input a progressive scan signal to get a progressive scan picture so you need a DVD player with progressive scan in order to get the benefit. The tv's I'm considering are the Hitachi 53SDX01B and the Toshiba 55HX70. The Hitachi has something called "Flex Converter" which they say provides "full time progressive scan (480p)". The Toshiba has something called "Digital Vector Progressive Scanning" and "1080i/480p native display".
Follow Ups:
Progressive scan processes at 60 frames per second. Interlaced is at 30. Some So called Progressive scan machines "Pioneer DV-434" which is marketed as a progressive scan actually does not do the job. It has a line doubler which may or may not work on your TV. This came right from Pioneer Tech Support.
Line doublers can and do cause compatibility issues.
Toshiba has a new line of three models which are 60 FPS.... True progressive scan and reasonably priced. THis came from Toshiba tech support. Toshiba HD's automatically sense interlaced or progressive and adjust accordingly.
Full time progressive, is probably a line doubler. Call their tech support and find out.
1080 can only be achieved from an HD converter.
BTW I have the 40H80 and am very pleased!
Good Luck,
Mitch
Thanks for the info. Caveate emptor really applies here, doesn't it?
