A blog about videocaptures from a HDTV source.
HDTV stands for High Definition Television and there are generally 3 different types of broadcast:
720p – 1280 x 720 Progressive
1080i – 1920 x 1080 Interlaced
1080p – 1920 x 1080 Progresive
Without going into it too deep, progressive is better at capturing movement on-screen, while Interlaced is better at stationary. More info available at wikipedia.
