This question has been asked and answered before but here goes again, next time search and see if your question was already asked and answered.


There are 3 1080 formats within the ATSC standard.

1080i 60i frames per second

1080p 30p frames per second

1080p 24p frames per second

1080p 30p was developed for TVs that natively display progressive 1080, as a 1080i signal would need conversion and processing.

Next 1080p 24p was developed because someone realized that a progressive display could natively display a film at the correct 24 frames per second rate. No 3/2 pull down,etc.. to muck up the works.

As far as which one is better that is really dependent on what media is on it, and a signal closer to its native display rate would give the best possible image.

Bad thing is most manufactures have dropped off the frame rate information, and deep technical study is needed to sort it out.

1080i and 1080p will have the same results for XBox. Both are notably better than 720p.

1080p Or I

1080p resolution--which equates to 1,920x1,080 pixels--is the latest HD Holy Grail. That's because 1080p monitors are theoretically capable of displaying every pixel of the highest-resolution HD broadcasts. On paper, they should offer more than twice the resolution of today's 1,280x720, or 720p, HDTVs, such as Samsung's HL-P5085W. Some companies, such as LG, refer to these super-high-res of sets as ultra-HD, while others prefer to substitute true or full for ultra.
1080i, the former king of the HDTV hill, actually boasts an identical 1,920x1,080 resolution but conveys the images in an interlaced format (the i in 1080i). In a tube-based television, otherwise known as a CRT, 1080i sources get "painted" on the screen sequentially: the odd-numbered lines of resolution appear on your screen first, followed by the even-numbered lines--all within 1/30 of a second. Progressive-scan formats such as 480p, 720p, and 1080p convey all of the lines of resolution sequentially in a single pass, which makes for a smoother, cleaner image, especially with sports and other motion-intensive content. As opposed to tubes, microdisplays (DLP, LCoS, and LCD rear-projection) and other fixed-pixel TVs, including plasma and LCD flat-panel, are inherently progressive in nature, so when the incoming source is interlaced, as 1080i is, they convert it to progressive scan for display.

il just add my little bit by saying iv viewed 1080i and 1080p and the difference unless you look REALLY!! hard is tiny to be very honest. unless you have a really big tv then you really cant tell the difference if your on a budget get a 37" samsung amazing for gaming and movies....why do you think stores such as gamestation and game use samsung tvs to preview and test play games? :)

1080 p means progressive scanning, i.e. every line of resolution is running contiguos( 1,2,3,4,etc). 1080 i means integrated scanning, i.e. every other line, 1,3,5, etc is fed with one video signal and lines 2,4,6, etc, is fed another signal. Progressive scanning is best. True HD tvs are 1080p. 1080i is more like Enhanced Definition, like 720p or i.

p stands for progressive.i stands for interlace.
