Question
I'm extremely confused, when i set my wii to 16:9 it was not wide at all. It looked exactly the same and the menu looked 4:3. Maybe it looked a little zoomed out but the sides were not wide.
Pressing info on my tv said the signal was 480i and "SD" (standard definition). Going into other wii options i see 480p is not available. I don't know what happens if my TV gets a 480p signal but i do know it supports 1080p.
Whats with this widescreen business and 480p thing?
Answer
You have to use the proper output cable to get 480p. If memory serves, you need to use component output. Out of the box, the Wii comes with a composite output cable. You'll need to purchase a separate Wii component output cable.
The Wii Component Video Cable allows you to hook your Wii console system to a high-definition TV (HDTV) or enhanced-definition TV (EDTV) to view 480p progressive output. 480p progressive output displays at a higher resolution than standard 480i resolution....
Please note that your TV must be a high-definition TV (HDTV) or enhanced-definition TV (EDTV) to view 480p output. You will also be required to change your Wii settings from Standard TV (480i) to EDTV/HDTV to view 480p....
You cannot see Wii progressive display output when the Wii console system is hooked to a TV using any other kind of cable.
