As of now, most network television broadcasts in the United States primarily use 720p or 1080i resolution. While there are some advancements in broadcasting technology, a widespread switch to 1080p for network television has not been officially announced or implemented. Factors such as bandwidth limitations and compatibility with existing infrastructure may delay this transition. Viewers can expect gradual improvements, but a complete rollout of 1080p across all networks is uncertain.

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.

Does charter television broadcast in 1080p?

Broadcasters are currently using 1080i and 720p as the HD standards. Live production equipment doesn't lend itself to 1080p and transfer from film to television formats does not benefit from 1080p's higher frame rate. !080p is generally restricted to disc, games consoles and computer displays. It will make an appearance on broadcast platforms in the coming years but not just yet.


Is there any higher definition than 1080p?

There are numerous formats that are in use in television and broadcast. Currently, 1080i 50Hz or 60Hz is the highest standard being broadcast. 720p is the same amount of data, but fewer lines and is also broadcast. 1080p is not broadcast at present and is restricted to local sources. BluRay discs, for example, can use 1080p. Broadcasters have no plans to use 1080p on their outputs at present. We can expect to wait several years before we see them start broadcasting that resolution. In film and some television post production work, 2000 and even 4000 lines are used. Once again, these are not broadcast and are used only for high quality image processing.

What are the currently available sources of 1080p TV signal?

1080p is not currently being used in live television production and is not being broadcast at present. Broadcasters are still migrating to 1080i and 720p formats and the majority of HD production equipment will not support 1080p. No doubt, it will come in time but expect broadcast 1080p to be some years away yet. The Sony PS3 boasts the ability to deliver 1080p as do certain other local devices. Personally, I am not aware of any 1080p material that is commonly available, even on disc. More will become available in the future but the push towards 1080i needs to be largely completed before broadcasters and film distributors look seriously at 1080p as the preferred format. It would be useful for anyone with additional 1080p devices for demostic use to list some here.

How do you convert a TV into a 1080p TV?

1080p and 1080i both refer to the format of a video signal. Any HD television will receive the signal and display it. If the television reports the signal standard being received, it will let you know what the signal is. Therefore, the television cannot be changed from one standard to another as it simply handles the incoming signal. Currently, broadcast HD signals are almost exclusively 1080i with a few formatted as 720p. Both are considered full HD even though the resolutions are different. 1080p is found on some local sources such as games consoles and Bluray players but has not yet made it to mainstream broadcast services.
