Can Xbox 360 Play 1080p DVDs?

The Xbox 360 can play DVDs, but it does not play them in 1080p.

Why:

• DVDs are not 1080p: Maximum DVD resolution is 720x480 (Standard Definition).
• Xbox 360 Output Limit: The console outputs DVDs at 480p max. It outputs 1080p only for games and Blu-ray (on models with a Blu-ray drive).

Even if a DVD case claims "1080p," the Xbox 360 will play it at 480p.
