Animego did the SDF Macross release from the early 2000’s, didn’t they? I still have a copy. What does HD transfer mean? It was made in early 90’s, was HD even a thing then? Twich Quote
azrael Posted June 8, 2023 Author Posted June 8, 2023 1 hour ago, twich said: What does HD transfer mean? It was made in early 90’s, was HD even a thing then? HD transfer means capturing the original film in 4K (or 8K, etc). Upscaling means blowing up a version (like the DVD transfer). Upscaling is cheaper and doesn't need significant post-processing to clean up the image, but you are essentially, filling in the image with extra pixels, leading to a softer image. HD transferring needs a lot of post-processing work because now you can make out all the defects from the film, but the tradeoff would be a sharper image vs a softer image. But keep in mind, you would need to see these differences with a magnifying glass with the image blown-up. You would never notice the difference sitting at a normal viewing distance. That's why most people at upscaled. But 98-ish% of people will NEVER be sitting at a distance where they will notice the more softer image of an upscale. Quote

hachi Posted July 2, 2023 Posted July 2, 2023 Thanks for that, though it's already ended. Will be looking for it somewhere... Anyway, if Twitter really goes to sh!t, will there be any alternatives for fast news/info? I don't like Facebook/Instagram algorithm, so I guess if the worst happens it will be back to stone age (forums and blogs) for me lol. Quote
