Re: DTV #1 in CS, but, customer knows stuff they get real stupid
said by wings10  :My HD is not downconverted. I have either 1080i or 720p. I find it interesting that CBS and NBS are in 1080i but ABC is in 720p. Even WGN is 1080i. FOX is 720p as well, then again most sets until just recently were only 720p as well, except for the top end ones, now virtually all are 1080p, so that will likely change before too long.
So the DTV HD DVR has no SD outputs at all??? That's too bad if so. Limits it usefulness a lot, at least until blue ray costs come down A WHOLE LOT.

They haven't upgraded, or they may be staying with 720p due to any sports offerings they may have. I know ESPN has chosen to stay with 720p.
Just as I suspected:
said by »abc.go.com/site/hdtvfaq.html :The ABC Television Network, ESPN and the majority of the ABC local stations have selected 720p for HDTV as the new standard of choice. Blu-ray, which is the new high definition optical disc format supported by the Walt Disney Company uses 1080p, or 1080 progressively scanned lines. |
