[QUOTE="FlexQ, post: 706372, member: 96534"] Well, my Panasonic TH-42PX80, cannot handle it. i have tried to use the panels native resolution, it just made the picture looking very strange. However, if one is taking a look on the specifications of the TV, then it is made clear that even though this is only a 720p tv, it is showing its best performance at 1080p resolution.
