True, but... Wouldn't the component output have to match the scanning rate of the particular TV it's connected to? The question I asked still has not been answered... How would the digital data on a DVD be formatted so that it could be output at 480 lines or 576 lines, with minimal "adjustment"? I suppose I'll have to pull out my copy of "Video Demystified", if I can find it.

Got a little button on top and off it goes setting the output of either the component or HDMI to the selected setting. Once again, this is all a function of the player's processing of the data and not anything inherent TO the data. > > The question I asked still has not been answered...
