There is no indication that this device actually plays HD content. It just scales SD content to HD resolutions. This is similar to the limitation of the XBOX Media Center. The XBMC does play 720p content if the bitrate is low enough, but 1080i is a nogo.

If only it could play x264, that's most of the HD videos I have anyway.
