Last week ABC had on Chronicles of Narnia, which I'd never seen. Oboy! I went, I haven't watched a network movie for decades, but now that I have HD...
Well it looked like an upconverted DVD, not too well upconverted at that. So I got to thinking: True HD means an all-new telecine conversion, right? So unless the broadcasters are playing a HD-DVD/Blu-ray, or the original film itself (unlikely), how can any broadcast achieve true HD?
My best *guess*: it doesn't.
Anyone?

Follow Ups:
I didn't watch it (Lion, Witch, Wardrobe), but I doubt ABC broadcast an upconverted NTSC source. The film has been produced in 1080p for blu-ray and ABC probably used this source to broadcast it in 1080i or 720p.
True HD is an audio format, so I'm not sure why you keep mentioning that. HD as you know comes in many flavors: 1080p, 1080i and 720p. Most networks broadcast HD in 1080i. Now the actual source for these broadcasts varies.

But then it is usually broadcast 4:3 with black bars on the sides.
