I just purchased my new Samsung DLP tv and when I hooked my xbox up to the component video, it keeps saying its not supported. I have set it to component 2 and 3 which says 480/720/1080, but neither will work. If I use component 1 which only supports 480i/480p it does work. I have enabled all video setting on the xbox menu and it still dosent work. Anyone have any ideas what I might be doing wrong ?

Theres another topic on this message board discussing this same problem. From what they said in there is use the 480i/480p input to get through the Xbox dashboard, then switch the video cables to one of the other component inputs to get the progressive scan in games. From what it said the Xbox dashboard is in 480i, so it will only show up hooked to that one component input. Hope this helps, and look for the other thread.

John, I was unsucessful trying this. Which game did you try it with? Does it work despite which game your using? I got the console part, but when I switch from component 1 to 2 or 3, I still get the bad signal. Does the game have to be running before it puts out 720p IE not in a menu?

There is a good explanation of what works and what doesn't here:
