help with max resolution analogue component video

[admin_exported]

hi connected a pioneer dvd player through component video connections to a pioneer plasma 436 xde the player says it can output up to 1080i through component connections when i set at 480p it displays on plasma. if i set the resolution to 720p on dvd player i stii get picture but display shows 480p. because it is anologue component is the max resolution only 480p or is the plasma only accepts 480p through component. the hdmi works fine what i cannot understand is dvd player says it can output 1080i through component which it is showing on the front of player but the plasma is still showing 480p any input would be welcome.
