Should I set my cable box to 1080i or 1080p?

For most people: 1080i If Native isn’t an option, 1080i is likely your next best choice. Most TVs are 1080p, and 1080i and 1080p are the same resolution. Pros: All 1080i channels will be output to your TV exactly as is.

How do I know if my TV is 1080p or 1080i?

Look up the model number on the manufacturer’s website. The model number of your TV will be listed in the manual and on the rear of the TV itself. Go to the manufacturer’s website, type in the model number and read the technical specifications. The website will state whether the TV is 1080p.

What’s the difference between 1080i and 1080p video?

1080p avoids this issue, displaying much better image quality in fast motion scenes. Further, 1080p is generally more vivid and realistic, which most people prefer. The higher image quality (around 60% better) comes from the fact that in 1080i, the even and odd rows of pixels aren’t displayed simultaneously.

How many frames per second does 1080i60 have?

1080i60 means that you’re getting 60 half frames (alternating lines) per second, so only 30 complete frames per second. With 1080i60 you actually get less than 60 fields (or “half frames”) per second, but it doesn’t mean that you get 30 (or almost 30) complete frames per second. In fact you don’t get even a single complete frame per second.

Is there any 1080p content on the market?

But the truth is that other than PC games, there really isn’t any available “real” 1080p content. They are either 1080i content, which is de-interlaced by your TV, 1080p/24 content from Blu-ray, or upconverted content from console games.

What’s the frame rate of a 1080p TV?
