720p and 1080i...why does screen say 750p and 1125i?

[jbaker]

I have a Pioneer 436XDE and have always wondered why my screen says 750p when receiving a 720p signal...and 1125i when receiving a 1080i signal?
Also, watching a blu-ray film tonight the screen said the signal was 1125p. I didn't think this screen could accept 1080p or higher? Even more confused!
Cheers
Jono
