In Reply to: So that's all it is? The video equivalent of audiophile specialty labels? posted by SalD on August 10, 2006 at 22:23:22:
the free to air channel networks all have HD transmissions as well as SD.What you get depends on what the station obtained the program in. I tend not to watch all that much TV programming but the ABC, our national broadcaster, transmits quite a few programs in 1280 x 720 progressive scan and the quality is extremely good. Most of the high definition stuff I've watched on the ABC has been in that format. The ABC shows a lot of British BBC material and that seems to be almost routinely in 720p and high quality.
The commercial networks are a mixed bag with some stuff in 1080i, some in 720p, and some in standard definition. There seems a lot more variation in the formats they transmit than what I've seen on the ABC.
Of course, there's no value in having a high quality picture if the program itself is not to your taste.
