If you look at the "TV and Video" section, it explicitly says it supports 1080p video out. But, if you look at the "formats supported" sub-section, it only supports 720p video.
- allwein 16y agoThat's simple to explain. The graphics subsystem easily supports outputting 1080p video. However, the iPad 2 has the same screen resolution as the original iPad, 1024x768. This means that the device itself only supports up to 720p, since 1080p is 1920x1080.
