Inferior to Sky HD / Freesat / Virgin V+ then (broadcast at 1080i25), or is the compression lower?

I guess 720p24 *is* technically a true, actual high definition standard, although I would be very sad to see it widely adopted... :-) (I think that for most *video* material, of actual moving subjects, you'd be better off picking a lower spatial resolution and a higher frame rate. Except for material where the director has deliberately chosen a low frame rate for effect, of course.) 25fps, 1280x720, 16:9 (0.87 megapixels) is what is going to be in "Freeview HD", the DVB-T2 service. -- Brian Butterworth http://www.ukfree.tv - independent digital television and switchover advice, since 2002
