I just noticed the audio on TV One and 2 coming out of my My Sky is Dolby Digital. I'm certain it used to be PCM.
Does this mean they will also go to 1080 (like TV3)? I have no way of checking that at the moment.

hdinsider: It would be easy to change HD format from 720p to 1080i. A cross-converter would probably be in circuit already. But I think 1080i would require more bandwidth to maintain the same picture quality.
I heard a story that some years back, an Australian broadcaster that had chosen 720p was testing a spare encoder at 1080i and that it accidentally ended up on air. Once they noticed what had happened (apparently a few days later!) they just decided to stay 1080i
1920 x 1080 = 2073600
v
1280 x 720 = 921600
How many pixels would you prefer?
