What resolution have people gotten with a BS1 and Apple TV?

4 replies
I only seem to be able to use my Apple TV with BS1 set to 480p. I'd expect to be able to get 1080i but if I configure for that I get a blank screen. Of course it works with the Apple TV connected straight to the TV but not through the component inputs of the BS1. The BS1 connects to the TV with the RGB cable. Ideas? Thx.

I know 1080i can work out of the ATV into the BS1. I sold my BS1 a while back so it's been a while since I've messed with it.  Does anyone know if this was ever a software upgrade issue?

I've got my set to 1080i output, it it works pretty well. Though, anything I have going through at 1080i seems to have some strange color / shadow issues. If I watch a movie on it, I usually change it to 480.

Thanks I finally got the 1080i resolution working. The problem was the RGB cable I was using to connect to the panel. I grabbed what I had around for a PC but apparently it was not sufficiently shielded for the higher resolution and would only do 640x480. So I'm all squared away right now.
