Composite vs. Component (Wii)

480p has a wider aspect ratio than 480i.

As I said, 480p has more vertical lines than 480i, and 480p is designed for EDTV and HDTV. If you've ever watched DVD in an HDTV, DVD has a max resolution of 854x480; thus, since you have HDTV, you must set your TV to stretch to widescreen. Otherwise, it will become squished when watched with black bars on an EDTV/HDTV.

Also note that "p" in 480p stands for progressive scan. It draws like this:

Code:
Verticle scan: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9,...

"i" for interlaced as in 480i, draws on the first pass, then the second pass in 1/30th of a second:

Code:
Verticle scan pass 1: 1,    3,    5,    7,    9
Verticle scan pass 2:    2,    4,    6,    8

Does your SDTV can output a resolution of 480p? Note that verticle lines will be squished together.

That's seems good example about between progressive and interlaced.
 
basically interlaced works in 2 passes and progressive works in single pass.
