Showing a 480i signal on a TV with 1920x1080 resolution is exactly like taking a little picture you find on the internet, and blowing it up to print on a full page of paper. It's going to look terrible.

Composite Video (
Yellow/Red/White) is 480i at the most.
Component (Red/Green/Blue) Video can do anything between 480i and 1080p.
Standard Def TV is always going to look like crap on an HD display. The Xbox with Composite video will also look like crap on an HDTV as the most you can get out of it is 480i. The only way to fix the problem is to get an HD box through your cable provider and to upgrade the Xbox cables to wither component or HDMI.
