Re: HDMI connections
Yes, there are a few sources that have true 1080p60. But it is rare. You could argue a standard cable couldn't handle 720p at 120fps either. Or 1080i 3D. Both of which theoretically exist, but are just as rare.
Will it happen here? I hope so, but given the general public seem to be turned off by HFR movies "looking too much like TV", it doesn't look like HFR will ever take off aside from perhaps on sports. 48-60fps on movies just "feels wrong" and perhaps its to do with increased perceptual load or something but it just doesn't seem to work that well on movies and instead messes up people's brains.
TBH the broadcast (cable/satellite) examples I've seen are pretty crappy, as they usually encode it with the same bitrate as 1080p30 content in order to shove it down the same channel bandwidth. Yuck.
