My area is Raleigh, NC and ABC and Fox are 720p. CBS and NBC are 1080i. 
What I see on those channels with mythtv on android is the same as I see 
through my TV's own tuner.  So no complains at one time Leanfront was 
better, but I now have mythfrontend profile setup correctly and 
everything is good.  It all depends in whether or not I'm just watching 
for entertainment or playing video engineer.
