I have a 1080p TV and was wondering if there is some kind of specific hardware for Ubuntu TV or any technical specifications for it that I should know. Will it work correctly with a 1080p TV with HDMI or does it work with only a group of TVs.
What are the hardware requirements to use Ubuntu TV?
It's still in its infancy but "Ubuntu TV comes with a box office built right in that gives you access to movie rentals, YouTube, and other online media outlets". So you need to buy a new TV with the Ubuntu hardware in it if you are talking about an actual TV with actually Ubuntu on it. I bet they'll also start making settop boxes since then you can use it in any TV (that has the correct connections).
You can also install a development version of Ubuntu TV on your own PC so you can ofcourse use your netbook, notebook or PC to stream it to your TV (ie. your system sends the signal to your PC). But I would not call that Ubuntu TV as it was announced by Mark Shuttleworth.
