Via satellite (and also in cable) HDTV broadcasts are either 720p or 1080i, since for showings with a 1080p resolution at much higher data rates would be needed. The broadcast would be too expensive. The 1080p resolution is therefore of the Blu- ray technology (or similar) reserved.

The NanoXX has for this reason "only" a version 1.2 HDMI port, because the data transmission speed of this version is completely sufficient for the maximum resolution of 1080i. Only for the resolution in 1080p HDMI version 1.3 is required.

In this context we would like to point out that the NanoXX converts the "normal" programs SDTV (Standard Definition) in higher resolutions (optionally) 720p or 1080i. This is the so-called upscaling NanoXX was often praised by the trade press, particularly because of broadcasts in 16:9 SDTV better image quality results are produced. Many customers had reported that in-studio broadcasts of public service broadcasters believed that this transfer would be in HDTV. Prerequisite for a brilliant picture is of course that your flatscreen is connected via HDMI.
