No, I haven't seen this DVD. But I highly doubt about the re mastered songs by EROS for a songs DVD.

Its a DEI.

Main Hoon Amitabh by DEI has much higher bit rates than DEI Sholay DVD for the Sholay clips (Mehbooba song and Amiabh takes Veeru's proposal to Mausi). DEI Sholay DVD had bit rates of 2 to 5, DEI MHA has bit rates of 4 to 6.5. Both have DD5.1 audio @ 448 kbps.

If these clips were done all over again straight from film or redone from the original higher quality master or just copied from the DEI Sholay DVD with new compression, I can't say. May be some one, better judge in PQ, can report if there is an improvement in PQ in MHA DVD.

If there is an improvement in PQ of Sholay clips in MHA, may be some day, someone will get hold of DEI's original better quality master and redo the DVD with higher bit rates. Even if it takes more than one disc. Sholay deserves it.

Arsh, I received the JPEG pics of SHOLAY screen caps. Unfortunately, I don't see these pics properly as they come out almost totally dark. I think, what you were trying to say was that despite much higher bit rates, PQ in Main Hoon Amitabh Sholay clips is no better than Sholay movie DVD. Actually, I didn't see any noticeable difference in the two PQs either.

Then, I wonder what's the reason for higher bit rates on Main Hoon Amitabh DVD??

Is it really re-mastered from film or just copied from Sholay DVD. It can't be replicated from Sholay DVD as the bit rates are different.

Rana

Both are Dual Layer.

From my earlier post:
Main Hoon Amitabh by DEI has much higher bit rates than DEI Sholay DVD for the Sholay clips (Mehbooba song and Amiabh takes Veeru's proposal to Mausi). DEI Sholay DVD had bit rates of 2 to 5, DEI MHA has bit rates of 4 to 6.5. Both have DD5.1 audio @ 448 kbps.

P.S. Sorry, Sholay being discussed in YRF Chartbuster thread.

Rana and Arsh,
Now that I am back I would like to continue the discussion about Sholay. Although Masti Man brings it here, I am also interested to know how it is compared to the songs DVD with a higher bit rate. What is Arsh opinion of these songs DVD?

Rana, Arsh and Sknath
Of course this is not related to the topic but want to share this.
Check these screenshots from EROS/B4U and EROS/DEI in smartdetect (not forceweave) but still you can tell the difference.

That means they use the same source i.e. there are not re mastered. What do you say?
