Can you see the difference?
~ Moved to Inquire Around
I don't download HD content myself, but someone once posted screenshots of the same movie frames in both 720p and 1080p - and in my opinion, quality was better in the 1080p shots.
You can't see the difference unless you have a 42'' lcdtv
The difference is only the size. (file size and picture size)
p means progressive picture, so you have 1 complete frame in every picture.
@noobglitch:
You may clean up your glases: on a full hd tv you can see the difference.
(but many didn't even see the difference between pal/ntsc and full hd)
I've seen it on my 20" (1680x1050)-TFT.

Quality wise, you must have a big tv screen to notice differences and use proper HDMI cables too. I've read some reports saying the difference is perceptive from 50" and on. Technically speaking they differ from the resolution. One has the max resolution of 1280x720p and the other is max at 1920x1080p.
edit: and I forgot to mention a FullHD 1080 logo certified screen is required too.
If you have Full HD LCD (1920 x 1080 P) with HDMI cable you can see whats the diffrence between 720p and 1080p. No matter whats your lcd size. The matter is quality.1080p is better than 720p.
On my 24' clearly viewable.
I always download 720p and watch it on my pc with 20' widescreen monitor at 1680x1050 desktop resolution and i wonder would 1080p make any difference because this is already omg-wtf-so-fking-good compared to xvid.
@anon you should definetly try watch something in hd, i was sceptical at first, but when i saw some stuff i was amazed.
The difference between 720p/1080i and 1080p isn't really noticeable until you get to 50+ inches. The larger the screen the more noticeable it is.
At your size the difference between EDTV & any format of HDTV should be barely noticeable.:tongue:
But filesize is bigger, right? And I'm on a free HDD space crisis right now :redface:Quote:

The nearest viewing distance according to THX is 2X the lcdtv width.
