1080p is a high definition video format. 1080 refers to the number of lines that make up the complete image. The "p" stands for "progressive". A progressive format builds the complete image from line 1 to line 1080.
1080i has the same number of lines but is an interlaced format. The picture is built in two passes. The first pass has all the odd numbered lines - 1, 3, 5, 7 and so on to line1079. The next pass has the even numbered lines - 2, 4, 6 through to line 1080.
Information is delivered twice as fast with 1080p compared to 1080i. Currently, broadcasters do not use 1080p which is found only on local sources such as Bluray, games consoles and computers.

Why is your 1080p television showing 1080i?
It's to do with the resolution. The 1080 identifies the number of lines that create the image, so 1080p and 1080i have the same number of lines. The letter stands for the type scan the TV uses. The P stands for progressive and the I stands for interlaced. Progressive will process the image twice as fast as interlaced and therefore produces better colour and clarity.
Why won't a 1080P TV receive a 1080P signal?
Broadcast television currently does not use 1080p. The HD formats in use at present are 720p and 1080i. The "i" stands for interlaced and it means that on a single pass of the screen half of the image is built up. The second pass sees the remainder of the image added to the first half. A full image is delivered 25 or 30 times each second. A 1080p signal delivers a full image on every pass, 50 or 60 times each second. 1080p therefore needs double the amount of data compared to 1080i. Broadcast infrastructure and the extra bandwidth requirements prevent 1080p being broadcast. 1080p is limited at present to Bluray and other local HD sources such as computers and game consoles. Don't expect to see 1080p from your television service provider any time soon. The 1080p identification on the television says that it will display 1080p but of course can only do this with a 1080p incoming signal.

What does 1080 i refer to?
1080 vertical lines of resolution, but the i stands for interlaced, as opposed to p which stands for progressive. The difference is that interlaced updates odd lines, then even lines alternately. Progressive updates the entire image with each scan. If your TV set can display 1080i then it can also display 1080p (which transmits all the vertical lines at once) although the only media capable of a 1080p signal is a Blu-Ray disk.
