Xbox 360 HD Player Res

Hi folks,

I'm having a few issues setting up my HD player to my Panasonic 42PX600 Plasma.

I am using the HD def cable connecting the 360 to the PC connector on the tv (no HDMI connector in the 360).

Does anyone know the best res to use and what the standard/intermediate and Expanded res option does ?

I seem to get alot of 'fuzzing' on the images when playing Hd DVDs

Any ideas ???

Many Thanks in advance !!

Re: Xbox 360 HD Player Res

pick the resolution thats closest to your panel res,which is 1024x768.
that model tv,does well at 720p,so something around that i would guess.
as for Standard/Intermediate/Expanded,thats up to you,as to what you like the picture looking like.
they are 3 different settings for how the xbox handles black,primarily aimed at VGA levels,as the 360 is mainly calibrated towards HDTV's.-component/hdmi.
as for fuzzing,would that not be a sharpness setting on your tv.?

Fuzzing?

You're definately using the 3 component (red, green, blue) connectors and have the cable set to HD-TV?
