Broadcaster's plans.....................................

In another piece of good news for the cable industry, ABC Television Network president Preston Padden said last week that the network would develop high-definition programming based on the 720P (progressive) format that Tele-Communications Inc. supports.

The broadcasters, however, appeared split on which format to use. CBS last week said that it would program five hours per week of HDTV in primetime using the more bandwidth-eating 1080I (interlace) format. NBC also signaled its plans to program HDTV in the 1080I format in primetime. CBS and NBC said they might use the 720P format during daytime hours, while ABC would use 480P outside of primetime.

Fox Broadcasting president Larry Jacobson said the network would use the 480P format, which is not considered true HDTV.
