i want to get a blu ray DVD player. I have an HD TV, 1080i, the only problem is that it doesnt have an HDMI input, my question is: will i still get an good picture without the HDMI?
yes, the DVDs can only be 480i with component, the Blu-ray will be 1080i or 720p if you want, HDMI (I'm not a tech) will only allow a faster rate of transfer for images, but hardly noticeable most of the time

you are a little wrong. using component dvd movies can play at 480p (witch looks better then 480i). Blu-ray movies will play at 1080i. hdmi has nothing to do with faster transfer rates (more of more bandwdth (data) yeah faster too). HDMI is a full digital cable. it allows for full 8 channel HD-Sound, and HDCP (High-bandwidth Digital Content Protection) something analog component cables cant do.Component can pass a full 1080p signal butnot incopy portected movies, just moves down to 1080i
edit, why does this site always put yourwords together. Iread my post then notis after the fact.
