That is probably due to no conversion having to be done by the video processor, not wether the source is progressive or interlaced.





You would be correct, if a set needs to use its video proccessor to convert the signal, it generally looks much worse than its native resolution.

I have looked at both side by side(almost) with this set up, one TV set for 720P res and its native res was 720 and a set nearby was 1080i with native 1080i. I could see a slight but noticeable difference. the 720 was smoother and cleaner/crisper looking, IMO. Both looked incredibly good compared to my 10yr old 36".
