1080p

So far all films for the HD DVD and Blu-ray formats are encoded at 1080p24, but how this is handled and output by the player varies from model to model. Some will only output the 1080 format as 1080i60, some will output 1080 as 1080i60 or 1080p60 and a very few will allow the on-disc 1080p24 for output, as well as 1080i60 and 1080p60, if the display accepts this rate. There's also 1080p30: this format is available for HD DVD, but not for Blu-ray.

For non-film or other material, you may see on-disc encoding as 1080i60.
