This is a Bell Express Vue HD receiver that can output a max of 1080i.. running on a brand new Panasonic 46inch Plasma 800 series. The tv has only been available in Ottawa for a few months..so it's spanking new.

I was disapointed that the Bell receiver only did 1080i, I just figured it was capable of 1080p.. ah well..

So, I've got the bell receiver set for 720p and the tv set to receive 720p. .that , whith my eyes, looks better on that tv than the 1080i...

To be honest, I'm not impressed with the PQ of the Bell HD signal.. I find that a regular DVD (animation, the incredibles)looks almost as good as the 720p or 1080i of the express vue HD.
