[QUOTE="Huevos, post: 754236, member: 301161"] 1) Mine can't and even if it could it's just getting sent over scart connector so it would never display in HD (some new DVD players do have HDMI interfaces). 2) Depends on the source, but both are capable of 1920 x 1080 @ 25 fps interlaced. 3) One that is capable of displaying true 1920 x 1080 resolution. Always go for "Full HD" not "HD Ready". According to Wikipedia "[I]Most "HD ready" sets do not have enough pixels to give true pixel-for-pixel representation without interpolation of the higher HD resolution (1920x1080)[/I]". Personally I have a decent quality LCD. Television that are currently sold as LED are not LED displays. They are just LCD displays that use LED light to backlight an LCD display rather than using cold cathode fluorescent light. In other words there is zero difference in the quality of the display between LCD and LED. LED is supposed to be lighter on power consumption but when I bought mine I took my energy monitor and tried quite a few different models and with some the LED model used more power. LED will start to use less power when the screen is illuminated with LEDs that allow local dimming where the screen is dark. The only other big difference between LCD and LED is LCD has a full range of sockets and they come out the back, whereas with LCD there are usually less sockets and they come out the side of the television rather than the rear in an attempt to make the slim design even slimmer.
