Since it seems LCDs are natively progressive, will enabling progressive scan actually make a difference? I can't seem to notice the difference between 480i and 480p... is something wrong with my eyes, or does it end up being the same? I'm guessing there is a difference under the hood though, but does the LCD panel just do its own deinterlacing when it's in 480i/1080i, or will an actually progressive signal do a better job at deinterlacing than the TV will? e.g. more unique frames per second or something.

Well the signal is progressive to start with, so going from a progressive source into a progressive display instead of going prog>interlaced>progressive and losing image quality in the process makes much more sense.
480p should be noticeably sharper as it is the superior signal -
Mind you, with a decent TV doing a decent job of deinterlacing, the difference will be minor at best.Comment
