  • I agree, what is ...

    I agree, what is the point? I think its just some sort of marketing scheme where some people might actually think 1080i would be better to get over 720p when its actually a waste of money when compared to 720p. What I dont understand is why not just make it a 540p standard? wouldnt 1080i be equivalent to 540p if it existed? wouldnt it cause less confusion?

  • saying 1080i is ...

    saying 1080i is equal to 540p is FALSE because 1080i has much more horizontal pixel resolution. even if you are using this dumb argument mathematically 1080i(or what retards call 540p) is 1920x540=1,036,800 pixel resolution, 720p is 1280x720=921,600 pixel resolution so even then 1080i is superior

    also the thing with interlacing is if there isnt a pixel change then you are getting the full 1080p resolution for that moment. so the resolution of 1080i is on average between 1920x540 and 1920x1080
