Howdy!
I read that the Xbox 360 (and the HD Player) playing through component cables will still only play a regular DVD at 480p at best. But if you use a VGA hookup instead, it CAN upscale a regular DVD to 720p.
So my question is, is it worth replacing my component cables with the VGA cable? How will regular Xbox gaming look? Same, better, worse? How much better will the DVD movies look? A lot better? Only a little bit better? One-time cost of $40 better?
I have a 42" Vizio plasma HDTV (though it reads 1080i, it max's out at 720p presentation). It has both component and VGA inputs (and HDMI, but not holding breath for this on my ol' 360).
Any thoughts would be great. And if you are into Rainbow Vegas, throw me an invite some night. :-)
Thanks!
