Do you understand the difference between native source resolution (render resolution or raster image output) and output display resolution? That was the whole point 480 native render to 1080p display, 1080 native render 1080p display regardless of horizontal res.

Your SMPTE reference also comes straight out of Wikipedia. "(According to some reports, a mooted 720p format (720 progressively-scanned lines) was viewed by some at the ITU as an "enhanced" television format rather than a true HDTV format,[5] and so was not included, although 1920x1080 and 1280x720p systems for a range of frame and field rates were defined by several US SMPTE standards.)"

But for your argument's sake, here's a handy chart of HD display resolutions.



Feel free to say "but the chart is wrong" or don't and just consider yourself enlightened.

 

he clearly does and was calling you on saying things that were under  1920x1080 - which is listed in the chart as the hdtv standard, while the others are specked out resolutions that are acsepted by groups, they are not the hdtv standard form by which true 1080p is judged and thus no games out, output natively at 1080p standard form, as recognised by ITU. in other words, yes those resolutions have 1080 in the name but are not standard recognized.
