I have a sony bluray player conected to my tv by a hdmi cable only it wont work can anyone help me

Go into the menu and set the output resolution to either 720p or 1080i and it should work on any HDTV that's not 1080p. If it doesnt, don't use an HDMI cable - use Red/Green/Blue (Component Video) cables to hook up to the TV. It will work fine at 720p. You will also need to connect additional red and white cables for sound.

What is the difference in 1080p and 720p technology in HD tv?
High definition television uses one of three common formats - 720p, 1080i and 1080p.720p indicates that there are 720 lines in the image. The "p" means "progressive" and a complete image is delivered 50 or 60 times each second.1080i shows that there are 1080 lines. The "i" stands for "interlaced" and the image is sent in two halves so a half image is sent 50 or 60 times each second but the full frame is sent only 25 or 30 times each second.1080p is also made up with 1080 lines but the "p" shows that a full image is delivered 50 or 60 times each second.Broadcasters use 720p or 1080i. These are both full HD signals. Although the 720 line image has a lower resolution, it is updated twice as fast. The data rate for 720p and 1080i is the same. Although 720p is less common than 1080i, it is used by broadcasters for some fast action content such as sports.1080p updates the image at twice the rate of 1080 and therefore uses double the bandwidth. Broadcasters do not send out 1080p and it is restricted to local sources such as Bluray, games consoles etc.
Does Blu-ray work with 720P?
Bluray handles all HD formats. As 720p is one of the HD formats, it will play it without a problem. Bluray will also handle 1080i and 1080p formats as well as standard definition. Depending on the set up of the player, the output will be in the format recorded on the disc or it may convert all formats to a single format such as 1080p. As an HD television will also handle any of the formats, it is worth experimenting with the set up to see if 720p discs are displayed better when the player outputs the native format or in a converted format.
What is the difference between EDTVs and regular TVs?
An EDTV is different than an HDTV because the picture quality is not the same. EDTV is also known as enhanced definition television and has a maximum resolution of 480p. HDTV is also known as high definition television and has a maximum resolution of 1080p. This means that an HDTV will get better picture quality than an EDTV.

Will a 1080p signal work on a 1080i tv will it downconvert?
1080p signal may not work on a 1080i TV set. You may not get a picture, but just a blank screen. And that blank screen will not let you undo the changes because you cannot see anything on the screen. In this case, you may have to make an analog connection, such as a composite video connection, to your TV set just to undo the changes you have made. Or you have to press a combination of buttons on the 1080p signal source to restore the picture. I suggest you read the documentation that came with your 1080p signal source.

Depends on what the person wants. 1080i is actually a DVD image. Blu-Ray machines have technology that can make a DVD image compatible with an HDTV, but it will not be a full high-definition picture. Blu-Ray discs always show their movies in 1080 pixels. Personally, I would get Avatar on Blu-Ray
