Does this work the same as the old NTSC signal?
If so 1080i means I have 1080 distinct lines, a field of 540 lines (the odd # lines) at the field rate (1/2 the frame rate) and 1080 at the frame rate. This was to get rid of 30 hz flicker in analog TV.
When you watch 720p on a 1080 display do they just replicate 360 lines? can you see this? Are they always the same lines?
