I've already got a full HD 1080p set in my lounge, but I've just bought a
new smaller 26" 'HD Ready' Sony Bravia TV, and I'm a bit confused about
one
thing. Now I know small screens don't benefit from full 1080p HD, the fact
they don't seem to make panels in 1080p smaller than 37" seems to back
this
theory up. So we people that want a smaller TV in a small bedroom get 720p
sets.
The resolution of the set is 1366x768 (most sub 40" 720p panels are this
resolution). Knowing these screens support 720p and 1080i (and the
576i/480p
modes of course), I want to know what I should set my various devices to
output, namely my PS3 and an upscaling DVD recorder/set-top box. Does
1080i
look better than 720p on a 1366x768 resolution screen, or do I just set
the
devices to display 720p? In other words, should 1080 interlaced look
better
than 720 progressive on this screen, so to speak.
I know the good advice would be try both and see, but I don't get delivery
of the TV till tomorrow....I just wanted to be enamoured with a bit of
good
advice prior to setting up.
Thanks for any input.
