In addition, most of what is broadcast on the Freeview|HD DTT is not
HD at all. Only TV1,2 & 3 are above 576i from what i understand (Maybe
TVNZ sports extra too, espec for the olympics).

And some of what is on the HD stations (TV1,2,3) is only upscaled SD
stuff anyway.

BUT everything in the terrestrial channels is h264.
