I have a newer 46" Toshiba, not 120Hz though, and it only says that its1080p... no more info.  I'm also looking to change from TWC to one of the sat providers, due to the horrible pixilation I get from compressed HD. The picture can be so bad sometimes it isn't even worth watching in HD.

If you go to List, then top movies, then select top movies again (folder) you should see a couple 1080p movies in that list. (mine only shows 2)<br><br>Those movies are actually already on your hard drive, they were recorded from satellite source not from the internet. This is how the other HD PPV movies were recorded and saved, so I am assuming the 1080p ones in this folder are the same. To know for sure if you pick one of those 1080p movies in this folder and if it says watch now, that means its already on your hard drive.<br><br>This only applies to the HR21, HR22, HR23 HDDVRs (I have an HR22-100).]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[quick]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 16th 2009 2:49PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://enghddev.weblogsinc.com/2009/04/15/directv-claims-largest-1080p-library-including-all-new-hd-vod-o/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://enghddev.weblogsinc.com/2009/04/15/directv-claims-largest-1080p-library-including-all-new-hd-vod-o/</guid><description><![CDATA[Dish Network has been offering 1080p VOD service since August of 2008.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Ghoti]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Apr 16th 2009 10:03AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on ]]></title><link>http://enghddev.weblogsinc.com/2009/04/15/directv-claims-largest-1080p-library-including-all-new-hd-vod-o/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://enghddev.weblogsinc.com/2009/04/15/directv-claims-largest-1080p-library-including-all-new-hd-vod-o/</guid><description><![CDATA[It's 1080p, but at no where new Blu-Ray bit-rates.
