here I got a cap in its OAR

Force-matted to create widescreen out of material never intended for widescreen projection ---- many pure 4:3 35mm movies were butchered this way

Kabhi Kabhie (1976)

I re-encoded the YRF re-issue DVD9 in my own style...it is NOW anamophic...well my disc tell me what you think

in what way are these shots anamorphic

This shot I got from the beginning of them Super Digital authored DVD's for Yashraj. All the films there appear in the same format

LOL nice one Farooq bhai

I thought u would of made it more into the Dostana Anamorphic

I don't see the point in doing this as the amount of pixels that were originally on the DVD have been reduced to be included in the anamorphic frame (to enclose it around the black bars). Your TV should display the originally DVD as its converted here anyway so don't get the point of going to all this effort to do this. The 4:3 video used all of the pixels on the 720x480 available (assuming it's NTSC), while the anamorphic version uses ~557x480. Anything less than 1.85 AR video, it doesn't make sense to to place it in an artificial anamorphic frame.

^ i hear your point...but i wanted to re-encode my dvd9 anyway...this looked SO much better on my 60" plasma than the original dvd9. and if i've sacrificed a few pixels...so be it. also, just wanted to know if i could sucessfully and i did - was done more for self-satisfaction than anything else.

That's not true. While this kind of treatment is pointless for 4:3 material, since most TVs and DVD players will windowbox it anyways, 1.66:1 films benefit from anamorphic enhancement.

Yep you're right. I had to read up 1.66 anamorphic to understand how it worked in practice, it does give an increased anamorphic resolution;

Résumé
Amit est un garçon sensible, poète et amoureux de Pooja. Les deux amants rêvent d’une vie parfaite jusqu’à ce que le destin en décide autrement. Pooja doit se plier aux vœux de ses parents et épouser Vijay. S’éloignant peu à peu du monde dans lequel il espérait s’épanouir, Amit délaisse son premier amour et décide d’épouser malgré tout Anjali. Pourtant, il est des destins qui doivent, un jour ou l’autre, se recroiser…

A propos du film
Un an après Deewaar, Amitabh Bachchan retrouve le cinéaste Yash Chopra dans Kabhi Kabhie. Aux côtés de Rakhee, l’acteur de Sholay trouve ici l’un des plus beaux rôles de sa carrière. Récompensé par 4 Filmfare Awards, dont celui de la Meilleure Chanson Originale pour Sahir Ludhianvi, ce film culte est une référence pour le réalisateur Karan Johar, qui rendra hommage, 26 ans plus tard, avec La Famille Indienne (Kabhi Khushi Kabhie Gham).

The Bodega DVD is a PAL conversion of the first YRF release (with the dull colours).

When Stephen drops he smashed! Come on boy, is that confirmed?

I'm afraid so...
