No they are 1080p, it's just compressed. They dont downscale to 720p, generally speaking. Some channels are 720p and upscaled, and they look like garbage.


Can you find one cable company that sends 1080p signals for their regular channels? Cox, Comcast, Suddenlink, Uverse, etc. all downscale everything to 720p and compress it a lot.

Nobody does 1080p outside of possibly streaming but even then CBS and NBC send the signal out in 1080i and ABC and Fox send the signal out in 720p. So it makes no sense for anyone to upscale that to 1080p and try to send it out.
