HI there Zulmi's
(esp) JamesBond...(tumne pukara aur hum chale aaye ). Was busy with my thesis submission.

Just to kickstart this thread...Here are screenshots from a "Progressive" version of Hero (by Shemaroo).. Comparative shots from the original versions (in Force-weave and Force bob) are also presented.

Will the mods, pls transfer these shots onto the zulm server.





& the corresponding progressive version



Wait for arsh to post the screenshots for the "Progressive" version of Humraaz (EROS...) !

welcome back sknath...thought i was seeing things for a second when i saw your name on a posting.

and about the poll, it leaves out those who never thought interlaced dvds were necessary in the first place!

It's a minor complexity problem certain individuals on here have a hard time understanding

Ali

Good effort and welcome back sknath.

With my tiny brain, I guess it's more difficult to figure out if I vote under 'No' or under 'Yes', than converting the DVD to Progressive, if I like Progressive screen cap.

Is the Poll question clear to all?? I'll hold off my vote till this clarification.

Thanks.

Rana

Welcome Back!, but that was like two centuries ago! No sooner that you're back the controversy and confusion starts, trademark of your modus operandi Some people mellow with age and then again some get more fiesty!

Not sure if Arsh wanted these shots in here or not but here they are.

Above pic is from the original version
Below pic is the progressive version

AADAAB, SHUKRIYA, KARAM, UL..

Both sets were grabbed on FORCEWEAVE, using same COLOR CORRECTION for consistency!

GUys..thanks for the stuff... All credit to Arsh for those shots..
JB... you can say I am incorrigible

Just to let you know folks that progressive versions of the following DVDs are available :-

1.) Mughal-e-Azam (Shemaroo)
2.) Amanush (EVP)
3.) Tere Mere Sapne (Shemaroo)
4.) Michal Madana Kama Rajan (EVP - HNM enterproses)
5.) Shiva (EVP - telugu)
6.) Hello Brother (EVP - telugu)
7.) Any recent EROS dvd's that were released after Humraaz


Can someone tell us if MunnaBhai - MBBS is pseudo-progressive or Field-averaged ?

Theon..the question means :-
" Are you convinced by these shots that progressive encoding is necessary for good dvd's ? Do you still believe that "good colors" - but interlaced dvds can be passed on as "DVDs" ? "

6 votes says NO



6 abstain ( NO VOTES ) So far a tie

Whatchoo talkin' 'bout, Willis?

Dragun.. Maybe the following screenshots will explain to you what I'm talking abt 'mate

The following screenshots are from Tum Bin (VideoSound). This dvd has the following problems :-
1.) Non-anamorphic video presented as anamorphic vide, giving you a horrble squishing effect
2.) Combing artifacts (as usual)
3.) Poor colors

The "progressive" version of the dvd is presented in the correct aspect ratio (non-anamorphic).

As usual Mods.. Pls transfer the images to the zulm server !
DONE! - UL





(for color comparison)













(for progressive encoding)
