Default Hdtv

Prestigio P370DVD 37" HD LCD TV Black & Silver 1366x768 800:1 4:3, 16:9 500cd/m2 8ms

The 1080i/p? All I think I have do is switch cable to HDTV and plug the hdtv cables in...I hope

The difference between 1080I is noticeable, so dont lie, its bound not to be on Xbox 360, because thats 720P.

Good tv though... imo, as times have moved on in the past 8 months, all lcd, plasma HS TV's are good atleast ok, i shouldnt think there are any 'bad' ones, just some reallly good ones

720<1080i<1080p

1080i for interlaced, 1080p for progressive
