Sure, it's higher than 1280x720, but the resolutions for HD are defined.  1280x720 and 1920x1080.  This means resolutions over 1920x1080 are also NOT HD, until they are included in the HD specification.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[TexRob]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 6th 2006 2:23PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on HDBeat Poll: which resolutions are high-def?]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2006/03/06/hdbeat-poll-which-resolutions-are-high-def/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2006/03/06/hdbeat-poll-which-resolutions-are-high-def/</guid><description><![CDATA[Anything over 1280 X 720(and including 720p( is HD. Sure, the resolutions for HD may be defined as 720p or 1080i/p, but anything over 720p has to be considered. I mean, Apple and Dell sell monitors with resolutions of 1920 X 1200 and higher, so if you have content at that resolution then technically you are watching HD content.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Borat]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 6th 2006 2:46PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on HDBeat Poll: which resolutions are high-def?]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2006/03/06/hdbeat-poll-which-resolutions-are-high-def/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2006/03/06/hdbeat-poll-which-resolutions-are-high-def/</guid><description><![CDATA[Well, not really, it's merely a definition.  Same reason you don't classify an orange as an apple, just because it's tasty too ;)  As far as the definition, anything else is just HD quality resolution if you must put the HD moniker on there.<br><br>Totally off topic, Borat, that is an odd name (to me at least), you don't play WoW do you under that name?  Maybe it has some fantasy background I don't know about if not?<br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[TexRob]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 6th 2006 3:10PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on HDBeat Poll: which resolutions are high-def?]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2006/03/06/hdbeat-poll-which-resolutions-are-high-def/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2006/03/06/hdbeat-poll-which-resolutions-are-high-def/</guid><description><![CDATA[I would say 1280x1024 would be considered HD which means I've been gaming in HD for years now.

There are plasmas and lcds with that resolution but there is no video standard corresponding to that resolution.<br>The problem with HD/noHD  is the confusion of video formats. Video formats are 480p, 720p, 1080i, 1080p and not XGA,VGA,SXGA. The display itself does not have anything to do with the format. It either can or cannot display said resolution. And again, hd is not a technical term but used for marketing only.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Mike]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 6th 2006 5:01PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on HDBeat Poll: which resolutions are high-def?]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2006/03/06/hdbeat-poll-which-resolutions-are-high-def/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2006/03/06/hdbeat-poll-which-resolutions-are-high-def/</guid><description><![CDATA[TexRob, <br>I dont't play WoW.

This whole thing is not about opinion, it's about facts.  Fact is, by specifications, 720 and 1080 are both HD.<br><br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[TexRob]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 6th 2006 7:27PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on HDBeat Poll: which resolutions are high-def?]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2006/03/06/hdbeat-poll-which-resolutions-are-high-def/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2006/03/06/hdbeat-poll-which-resolutions-are-high-def/</guid><description><![CDATA[Agree with the crew that says 1366x768 isn't a standard. It is just easier for panel makers to create 1366x768 panels rather than true 720p panels... This forces the scalers to do a small upscale of 720p video, the that softens the image and adds artifcats...]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Bill]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 6th 2006 7:58PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on HDBeat Poll: which resolutions are high-def?]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2006/03/06/hdbeat-poll-which-resolutions-are-high-def/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2006/03/06/hdbeat-poll-which-resolutions-are-high-def/</guid><description><![CDATA[All fixed pixel panels scale a little bit, how else do you explain the overscan when the input resolution is exactly 1280x720? You can find threads online on how to set your TV up for a 1:1 pixel mapping to eliminate this scalling but then there are artifacts on the edge that the networks don't expect you to see because they expect you to have overscan!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Ben Drawbaugh]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 6th 2006 8:14PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on HDBeat Poll: which resolutions are high-def?]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2006/03/06/hdbeat-poll-which-resolutions-are-high-def/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2006/03/06/hdbeat-poll-which-resolutions-are-high-def/</guid><description><![CDATA[See that a lot watching SD channels Ben, left and right edges look pretty funky at times.<br><br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[TexRob]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 6th 2006 10:21PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on HDBeat Poll: which resolutions are high-def?]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2006/03/06/hdbeat-poll-which-resolutions-are-high-def/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2006/03/06/hdbeat-poll-which-resolutions-are-high-def/</guid><description><![CDATA[This poll should really be titled, "Which resolution HDTV would you buy?" As long as you have more than 720 vertical lines of resolution, it's an HDTV.  Horizontal resolution does not come into play at all as far as the definition of HDTV goes.  It does come into play in my buying decision.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Wilbur Pan]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 7th 2006 12:10PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on HDBeat Poll: which resolutions are high-def?]]></title><link>http://hd.engadget.com/2006/03/06/hdbeat-poll-which-resolutions-are-high-def/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://hd.engadget.com/2006/03/06/hdbeat-poll-which-resolutions-are-high-def/</guid><description><![CDATA[Which resolutions are "high-def"? 1280x720, 1366x768 and 1920x1080. Now run the poll again asking which resolutions adhere to HDTV ATSC standards instead of the unofficial-beating-a-dead-horse "high-def" nomenclature and you'll get different results.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Kermee]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Mar 8th 2006 3:12AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
