But why? Those screenshots from Fourth Stage prove that they're just upscales. See the jaggies around the body seams on the car? See the chroma leaking from the traffic cone in the first shot? I can literally take my DVDs, run them through some snazzy filters, and get the same output. It's obvious they're using secondary sources for that, so it's not 'better' it's just 'already upscaled for you'. | ||

Buy the DVDs. Any current player will upscale it for you and your flawed vision will not be able to see the blatant artifacts consistent with a shitty "Bluray" cut of Fourth Stage. | ||

ShiMACHaze Group: Advanced Members Posts: 19,542 Member No.: 5,394 Joined: Feb 5th 2005 Location: Drydock | Now, keep in mind that these are both not quite perfect examples. I don't own the blurays, and while I do own the DVDs for 4th Stage they're in a box somewhere with all the rest of my stuff ever since the fire back in February. So without access to those primary sources, I have this broadcast of 4th Stage from Animax HD of the 'HD remaster', and this encode someone else did of the DVDs. The Animax broadcast is in 1080 native, whereas the DVD is 480 and my media player is doing the upscaling using MadVR. Compare for yourself. Image size reduced, original size: 1920 x 1080.

If I can find the DVDs I'll have a better example but that should give you a pretty good idea. |

I assume Animax was using the bluray source for that, so this should be a close comparison. My DVD screenshots were taken in MPC-HC and are rendered with madVR set to maximum-performance upscaling using 60FPS deinterlacing, then cropped down to 720p. While I could put a script together to get the upscaling to look better I probably couldn't do it in realtime so I didn't bother. This is close enough. The ones with the ANIMAX logo are the 'HD' ones, obviously. Image size reduced, original size: 1324 x 720. Click here to view the image in its original dimension.

Just saw this post. No, because I deleted it. I only ever had a single episode of it anyway, so it's not like I could've shared the whole series or anything. Sorry 'bout that. Plenty of people are uploading blurays though so check out the other threads. | ||
