The process is very simple - you don't.

HD television can be broadcast in one of two formats. 720p is one and 1080i is the other. Local sources such as Bluray and games consoles can also use 1080p. All HD televisions will accept any of the formats and display them without any adjustment by the user. Therefore, users will not be aware of the specific format used in most cases.


There are some exceptions: Some older HD televisions cannot handle 1080p signals. While this is rare in current televisions, if 1080p signals cannot be shown, check in the manual to see if they can be accepted. If not, the source will need to be adjusted to operate at 1080i rather than 1080p.

How do you get 1080p output on PS3 using a HDMI cable with a game that only supports 720p?

The PS3 will upscale to 1080P if the system is set to upscale. You will not get 1080p you will get 720P upscaled to 1080P. I find that DVDs movies are better on the upscaled format, but they are not of the quality of Blu Ray.

Dynex 46 LCD 1080p running at 720p change back to 1080p?

HD televisions are capable to displaying several HD formats. The most common are 1080i, 1080p and 720p. All HD signals will be in one of those three formats and the television will automatically accept and display any of the formats. The on screen report that the display is running at 720p is simply an indication that the incoming signal is in that format. Change the incoming signal to 1080 and the status will change to show 1080. Note that 1080i and 720p are both true HD formats and broadcasters are free to use either format. 720p is less used but it may be found on sports channels as it handles high speed movement a little better than 1080i.
