So basically i have an Xbox 360 and a Sony KP-51WS510 CRT Proj.
Now the TV is documented to downconvert 768p to 480p, the tv is 1080i.
So i setup xbox to 1080i, but am playing COD4.
I recall that COD4 is at 768p, would tv recognize this and then downconvet to 480P?

FWIW the pictures looks amazing, although not close to my 768p LCD

First, COD4 renders internally at 540p. But that's completely irrelevant, because the 360 internally upconverts to 1080i (or whatever you want), too. All your TV is going to see is a 1080i signal, and it'll be happy. Don't overthink it.

Awesome, i didnt know that the 360 would upconvert all outputs...
The PS3 doesn't, so look out for that. It shouldn't be a problem anymore, but you never know.
