What is "flag enabled?"

I have an Oppo 970HD, and the quality of some DVDs played via HDMI that I have watched recently is superb. One example is "The Departed." The quality is comaprable to an average satellite HD broadcast, but of course not as good as the top-quality HD satellite signals and the over-the-braodcasts that I get. Were these special DVDs? If I had played them via component output, would they have been as good, or does this "flag" thing come in to play. I haven't tried the output of my satelliet receiver in components. I just hooked up HDMI and it worked flawlessly, instantly, so I never messed with it. Is it worth messing with component input?

Because the few DVDs that I have watched looked so good, I feel little incentive right now to buy any kind of HD player. I don't buy many movies at all, but just rent them, so I feel I can wait until things settle down. DVD via my HD TV is just very nice. It's all a matter of choice.

Thanks for any help you can be.
