As the credits were rolling at the end of the show it announced that a 2 hour DVD would be available, so I think they only paired down the show for broadcast purposes.
It was fantastic to see the Hip in HD. Can't wait for the release. :thumb:
Ok, this may seem like a silly question, so go easy on me. Apparently the DVD was shot in high definition, correct? Does this mean you have to have a HD TV to watch it?? I only have a regular old-fashioned non-HD television set, so I was just curious.

HD DVDs are not available. Yet. Although recorded in HD, the only way for a fan at home to see it in HD is with an HD cable or satellite signal. The DVD will be in standard resolution for DVDs (720 x 480 interlaced) and play fine on your standard definition TV...

HD DVDs are on their way, and new DVD players will be required to play them. A format war is also on its way as there are two competing technologies: HD-DVD (developed by Toshiba and NEC) and Blu-ray (developed by Sony).

Well put Chris,
You can see it at a bit higher resolution if you have an HDTV and an Upconverting DVD player
