Confused with DVD connections

I just got a panasonic DMREH50S and I am hooking it up to a Toshiba 32AF45. Ok , here is the confusion...it said for a better quality use the Y Pb Pr terminal and on my TV it has the Y Pb Pr (they call it Colorstream). So I did this and the picture was all garbled. Finally figured out that I had to change the setting on the DVD to 480i.
My question is: what is the point of the TV having that component (Y Pb Pr) if you cannot set it to 480p? So am I even getting a better quality or should I just have hooked it up to the regular audio/video out connections? And if I do hook it up the regular way, can I set the setting on 480p? Does this make any sense??

Hope someone can shed some light on this!
Thanks!!

Component connections are still better, even if you can only use 480i. You need a digital TV to use progressive scan, that TV is analog.
