RE: Component video vs HDMI

Posted by cfraser on March 7, 2016 at 13:10:09:
Yes.

Also, you can't normally upscale (e.g. DVD) over component. Lots of "legal"/electronically-enforced restrictions in effect re the use of analog/component video (too easy to copy).

tesla can use 1080i video from a BDP with component, if his TV accepts that res and his BDP is "old" enough to have it, 1080i actually looks very decent with a BD, compared to DVD.
