Well, 1080p is possible over component, but not from Blu-ray Disc. The Blu-ray standards indicate that when component video is used, the highest output that can be sent (allowable) is 1080i. IF the image contraint token (ICT) is not enabled. If the ICT is enabled, the video must be down converted to 540p!
-- from google So, a flat statement in the world of Blu-ray is that 1080p is not possible over component video.
