- Aspect Ratio is the proportion between the width and height of a TV screen
- Resolution defines the amount of pixels displayed on the screen
- 4K (Available on some TiVos)
- 1080p (Available on TiVo)
- 1080i
- 720p
- 480i (Standard Definition)
- i or p refers to the scanning technology
- i = Interlaced scanning technology. It scans and refreshes even and odd lines separately, but produces very sharp pictures in general when the image is still or has little motion
- p = Progressive scanning technology (newer). Scans and refreshes all lines at the same time. Progressive scanning produces smoother motion with less blurring. It's perfect for high action movies and sports.

Aspect Ratio
-
- None provided. We pass through the aspect ratio (how a non-HD channel's 4:3 picture looks on a 16:9 TV) the way broadcaster wants it to be. However, if you want to override this, you can usually find settings on your TV
- Please keep in mind, there aren't many non-HD channels on the IPTV box

Resolution
-
- Resolution defaults to Auto and chooses the optimal resolution on its own! You can change this manually, but there really is no reason to
- Go to TiVo Home | left arrow to Menu | under Settings, choose Device Settings | Device Preferences | Display & Sound | Screen Resolution
