Ok, yesterday we got a 720p 26" Insignia LCD tv. Since then, we got it set up and everything, and it is a great TV so far.
Can you tell me the following:
1. From what I understand, composite is red/white/yellow, while component is green/blue/red. Is this correct? Would using R/W/Y cause me not to be able to get a HD/Progressive scan mode from the PS2? I have tried Gran Turismo 4 on 480p and it came up no signal. I then (for the heck of it) tried 1080i, and it did the same thing. Halo looks fine, it even goes widescreen itself (all the way across the screen.
2. Since it is a 720p, what modes can I get? I am guessing I can get anything lower than that, but am still very confused.
3. Is it ok to run the devices that I don't have room for on the tv's inputs on a selector that runs to the tv with a cable/antanne cord?
4. Exactly why does it show black lines on the sides of the tv on certain shows? Is it because it wasn't made in WS? Why does Transformers still have the black bars on top/bottom when Troy doesn't?
Sorry for the number of questions, but I am pretty confused.
