| Pemalite said: For example... StarGate SG-1 is one of my favorite TV shows, Amazon has "upscaled" the original DVD which means characters have a paste-y look to their skin which just doesn't look right... Some of the episodes were also messed up and in the wrong order... And they have removed the series from the streaming service a few times due to rights issues. Physical media is true preservation, not whatever excuse you are making. |
I know this isn't gaming, but I agree, love Stargate SG-1 and it has been butchered.
Amazon has also ruined Buffy, probably worst then Stargate. They used AI to randomly crop a 16:9 image of the 4:3 footage and then upscale that. What is worst you can see camera crews in some scenes. They also did not do the post filming editing and scenes that should appear at night appear to be at day like they were filmed raw.
Sometimes these companies need to understand when something was filmed to b displayed in 4:3, leave it alone. So many people were parsing amazon how amazing these shows look in 16:9 HD, but if they compared it side by side to the original DVD 4:3 picture, they would realise how much detail is lost just because people hate side black bars on their wide screen tv.
Highlander tv series upscaled wasn't much better.
