Recently, I 've watched Eros` Johnny Mera Naam. The print is excellent. Checked on the pc and surprised to learned it is progressive encoded.

I wondered who authored the dvd for Eros. Wish Eros can continue to use them.

Johnny Mera Naam AKA Johny Mera Naam AKA Jonny Mera Naam AKA Jony Mera Naam

it doesn't look like progressive the second time i played in the pc. the first time i watched it, i didn't notice the combing possibly because there wasn't much movements.

nevertheless, the print still stands out among the other eros dvds. fairly sharp with vibrant colors.

Then i think it must be on par with their other Navketan and FK international releases... i think the author was Dot Media.. but I am 100% sure that none of those dvds were ever progressive !

I picked the Indian EROS DVD yesterday -- it said "packed Dec 2008, Rs.99" but when I peeled this sticker off, I could see "packed 2006, Rs.250".

The DVD has lots of B4U ads -- so this must have been Eros-B4U abroad. Disc comes in keep case and is replicated at KRCD.

It's not progressive, but fairly neat IMO.

4:3 NTSC
runtime 02:54:01
shemaroo, if really 157 minutes or 02:37:00, would be cut.

Hindi Dolby Digital 5.1 and English subtitles

comparison shots

UK/US Eros versus Indian Eros
the difference may or may not be due to colour settings -- armaan / urbanlegend to confirm for UK/US

UK/US Eros

Indian Eros

-

Shemaroo versus Indian Eros
shemaroo is cropped

shemaroo SEE THE RIGHT EDGE -- Image is cropped (the flowerpot behind Dev Anand's back is not fully visible in the shemaroo video transfer.

Indian Eros

shemaroo runtime, if 157 min, means it's cut -- sengh_15 to confirm

Did you get a chance to check the shemaroo dvd? Is the runtime really 157 minutes? Eros dvd, as already mentioned, is 174 minutes long.

It was nice. I have seen it many a times. Dev Anand was damn good at that particular time.
