Consult the owner manual to make sure the input it is connected to is 1080 and you are on that input-------HDMI? Component? 1080 Component?

SOURCE: I have a 50 in vizio plasma. just hooked up a psp3

Ok, I can help ya James.

Basically, you have not changed the "display" settings on the PS3, so it is outputting a "standard" resolution. But, you need to switch it to get that HD!

Step 1 - Start up your PS3

Step 2 - On the XMB, go to "settings"

Step 3 - Choose "display settings"

Step 4 - Choose "video output"

Step 5 - Choose "HDMI"

Step 6 - Select the highest resolution that your tv supports.

Step 7 - Continue through the setup. It will ask you if you would like to keep these settings. If everything looks ok, click "yes".

Now, your PS3 should be outputting the highest resolution that your tv supports. Let me know if this fixes your problem!

SOURCE: how to adjust from 480p to higher resolution up to 1080

several things use hdmi cabling, also change resolution (can sometimes be changed on front of direct tv receiver) or may have to go through menu to change to the different resolutions. also turn the native mode OFF! having the native mode on for directv will give sometimes give you odd pictures. also whatever resolution you choose through directv menu's make sure your tv is also set to the same resolution

SOURCE: how do I get 1080 on TV

You only get it if they send it. Only Blue Ray DVD's are in 1080p and games I suppose, as of this time. everything else is 480i or 720p. As your manual says "TV CAN GET"--- not produce what isn't there. I hope this helps.

SOURCE: how do I get from 480 to 1080p on my tv?

1080P is a quality you'll only get with a blue ray quality video. Therefore, you won't get 1080P on cable tv. If your cable provider has HD channels available, you'll be able to get 720 or 1080i quality video (on those channels only). For the best quality, make sure you are using an HDMI cable. Just be sure your cable box supports an HDMI output. Your Vizio definately supports that type of input. If you have a PS3 or alternative blue ray player, you'll be able to watch 1080P.

How to I change tv to 1080i from 480i?

this should automatically be done by the tv. If you input to a standard def input (ie yellow plug) or are using standard def cable it will be 480. If u change to a HD input or an HD channel it should automatically switch to 1080. The input displayed on the tv that says 480i or 1080i is just a result of what is being played, not a setting to be changed.

I have a 50 in vizio plasma. just hooked up a psp3 for the blue ray, but the input only says 480. What gives? shouldn't this be 1080? I can't find an ajustment on the menu screen on my tv?

What you need to do is hook up your PS3 to a different tv. Then in Display setting on the PS3 change it to 480p. Hook it up to your vizio and while on the ps3, change it back to 1080p. Most Vizios don't have a Progressive scan that adjusts to the output settings of the PS3 (or other device) .

I just subscribed to HD service, But my mitsubishi 55807 tv wont display 1080 it stays on 480. the server is comcast. can you help?

IYou have to have your comcast box tuned to a channel that is broadcast in HD. On your Comcast remote hit menu. This will bring up several icons, one is HD. Select that icon and it will bring up the TV Guide for just HD channels. Select one and tune to that channel. Once your on that channel use your original remote and hit menu, then advance features, then go down to video display and change it from 480 to 980 or 1080. Let me know if this helps.
