I hope this post is in the correct location?
I have a Sony KDL-46XBR2, I am looking at buying a BLU-Ray player, but I not sure which one to get.
My TV manual says that that in is native 1080p, with 3 1080p/60 inputs.
I have been reading up on the different blu-ray players and am having a hard time picking what would be the better option for my older HDTV. What a difference only 3 years can make.
From my reading I find that my TV might not really do 1080p, it will do 1080I/60 not the new 1080p/24.
The forums say that some new players(LG) will output 1080p/24 off the disc directly and sends that signal unchanged to an HDTV.
Is sound like that my TV cannot process or display the 1080p/24 signal directly, so that the Blu-ray player will then reprocess the 1080p/24 signal to 1080i so that the my TV will recognize the signal.
My TV is 1080p/60 capable, the TV will reprocess the 1080i signal to 1080p/60 in order to be able to display the image on the screen.
I am looking at the a Sony BDP s350, LG BD-390/370, Samsung BD-P3600.

My questions are these:
- Which of these might be the better option?
- Would a little older model be better than these more expensive new models?
- Will we really see much of a difference between the 1080p/24 direct input and the 1080i that is converted to 1080p/60?
