Re: Ultra-HD: First satellite transmitter to start in 2014

HD channels shows better then SD, but there's no difference between 720 and 1080.
But we cannot stop the time. Big res is a future of video.

That's the point: no big difference between 720p and 1080p. We cannot stop the (r)evolution and they need to make money.

Mhh, mmh, mmh...

That's not really true.
The difference is 1,5 * 1,5 in resolution, which means 2,25 times more pixels in each picture.

And do you mean 1080p or 1080i? I don't know any tv station which uses 1080p at the moment. BD-discs do this.

You can see the difference on a 50" or larger screen with a native full-hd resolution. And these screens are getting cheaper and cheaper.
But if ultra hd is really usefull even on 50" screens? I also don't think so.

Really notice a difference between 720p and 1080p is not easy, especially on TV sets with a small screen, you need to have a TV with wide screen and not every user will be able to find any difference, there are probably notice the difference specialist.

You are right mate
Personally, I can't find easy differences between 720p and 1080p.
Of course all deppends on the size of the tv, the resolution of the screen and the distance you sit from it.
Generally speaking, if you sit more than 10 feet away from your tv, and your display isn’t bigger than 50'', you won’t be able to tell the difference between 720 and 1080.

The point is: the majority of the screen sizes is under 50'. So there is no big differences in the image quality.

hi mates

Sorry, but I don't completely agree here, mine's a 40" and we're about 4m from it, image is clearly better on 1080(i) then with 720(p). And true, our BD-player is even a bit better. But I don't believe Ultra HD will be even better (not viewable anymore - perhaps just with indeed bigger screens from shorter distance) - my opinion

Re: Ultra-HD: First satellite transmitter to start in 2014

If you have a full hd-resolution and a good deinterlcer in your tv, 1080i is defenitly better.

In that case 720p means e. g. streching the picture from 1280 to 1920 points.

And if you have (in future) an ultra-hd tv even full hd and any other resolution means stretching from the native to 3840 point. Look at the picture quality on a computer monitor and you see the difference if you don't use the native resolution of the panel.

Re: Ultra-HD: First satellite transmitter to start in 2014

who from the users of this forum had an opportunity to watch TV in format Ultra-HD, could you share your impression of view

Re: Ultra-HD: First satellite transmitter to start in 2014

Ohh, I surely believe noone can watch it untill now because even the test transmissions didn't yet have started.
And the equipment for receiving during the IFA is prototype-equipment.

Re: Ultra-HD: First satellite transmitter to start in 2014

The next step has just began...

This afternoon I saw in an electronic shop a 65" tv with ultra hd for the "cheap" price of 5500 Euros (panasonic) reduced from 7998 Euros. There was a test trailer in a 5 minutes loop. The picture was very good, but I didn't really see a big difference to trailers in normal full hd...
