1080ip

1080ip is not an officially defined term in mainstream video technology. It does not correspond to a widely recognized resolution or scan format, and it may arise from typographical error, branding, or marketing shorthand. In most contexts where a term like this appears, it is prudent to check the device or content specifications rather than treating 1080ip as a formal standard.

Most widely used HD formats around the 1080-line family are 1080i and 1080p. 1080i denotes a resolution of 1920x1080 with interlaced scanning, typically 50i or 60i depending on region. 1080p denotes the same 1920x1080 resolution but with progressive scanning, usually at 24, 30, or 60 frames per second. In practice, the choice between interlaced and progressive formats affects motion rendering and compatibility with displays and broadcast chains.

In streaming and IP-based delivery, 1080p is commonly transmitted over IP networks using codecs such as H.264/AVC or H.265/HEVC and container formats like MP4, with adaptive streaming protocols such as HLS or MPEG-DASH. Interlaced content can also be delivered over IP, but modern streaming often prefers progressive formats due to simpler processing and de-interlacing on devices.

If a product label or service mentions 1080ip, it is advisable to verify with the provider or manufacturer what the term intends—whether it refers to interlaced content delivered over IP, a branding shorthand, or simply a mislabeling. See also 1080i, 1080p, HDTV, and streaming technologies.
