Anche dalla component è ora possibile uscire in 1080p.

Ce n'era già un'altro di 3d aperto per la news: Wmvhd 360 e forse era meglio continuare su quello dedicato: Xbox 360 official thread

Cosa c'entra questo argomento con la sezione "Display Full HD"...

C'e' l'apposita sezione "Sorgenti HDTV"!

Discussione spostata.

[GIANGI67]

attendo qualche info in piu', a me non risulta il 1080p da component, ma solo da vga.

Dal sito ufficiale xbox 360: "Complete Dashboard Update Feature List

New Features

* HD 1080p video mode support over VGA and component cables."
Official site Xbox 360

Confermo la possibilità di selezionare anche da component l'uscita 1080p.
I dvd restano a ris normale (in component).

Ma quali sono i display che supportano il 1080p da component o VGA?

[Avenger]

Esiste un altro modo per installare l'aggiornamento oltre a Xbox Live? Non ho il collegamento adsl a casa.
Grazie

Al momento credo che ci sia solo il samsung F71 e forse X2000(mi riferisco ai soli LCD). Credo che Sharp abbia una risoluzione "limitata" a 1366x1080 in vga, ma non ne sono sicurissimo.

Non esiste altro modo.


Cmq ottimo il 1080p su component! Mi aspettavo unicamente il VGA...

[benegi]

Scusate una domanda ai possessori di Xbox 360 che hanno provveduto all'aggiornamento ......... ma visto che potete uscire sia dalla VGA che in component a 1080p ........ si possono selezionare le frequenze di refresh a 50 o 60 Hz ???

Grazie a chi potrà togliermi questa curiosità

ciao

Non è del tutto esatto .... il plasma (Pio 433mxe) del 2001 accetta, via component o vga, segnali a 1080p ..
