If it's still not clear, I'm not calling Saathiya a satisfactory DVD by any means, it's far from it. I just don't understand this notion that just because Mohabbatein is progressive, it's a decent DVD. The detail and sharpness are so lacking on that DVD that I get an eyestrain just watching it.

IMO the only acceptable DVD that YRF have released has been K3G; hopefully we can all agree on that.

out of the dvds mentioned ..mujhse dosti karoge would have to be the worst...followed by saathiya...and then mohabbatein and then k3g...
mohabbatein was such a better dvd than saathiya...and not jut because it was progressively encoded...but because the detail and colours were very vibrant....and the sound had pretty good ambience...especially in Amitabhs intro....

i think u guys are forgetting...Mere Yaar Ki Shaadi was also made by yashraj...and id have to say that..that is the worst dvd of the lot..

You can increase the sharpness / contrast of any picture manually by changing ur picture settings (just simple image processing algorithms need to be present in ur TV set / software).
Try doing that with Interlaced pictures.. you will see your glorious combing artifacts.... or as Has been shown with Hollywood dvd's you will see Blurring when there is motion and presence of double images.. which gives rise to the flickering effects.
I can give you reasons, stemming from image processing fundamentals, why this is possible or why this occurs

But ideally, shouldn't any sharpness settings on the TV be at 0? This way the image isn't artificially sharpened by the TV, and any edge enhancement or other sharpening inherent in the video isn't exacerbated.

I agree with dragun, all sharpness should be turned down, all the way, before u calibrate ur dvd player/tv with video essential or avia audio/video set up discs, to get the best possible picture..

Yes it should be set at "factory default settings". But you can, theoretically change them.. If someone feels that a picture is soft she/he can make it more sharp.. (thats just like increasing the high-frequencies of the image)..
Try doing that with interlaced pictures... The boundaries of the interlaved lines..will also be enhanced (unless you have something very sophisticated ) and that will give you severe distractions

DONT FORGET to PICK UP ur FREE DVD..LOL..may be it is FARAAR?


Title Koi Mil Gaya (with a FREE DVD)
Description Hrithik Roshan, Preity Zinta, Rekha
Director Rakesh Roshan
Brand/Distributor Yashraj
Genre Film, Drama
Subtitles English
Category DVD
Features
Year 2003

Price $18.99





With a FREE SURPRISE DVD

Film Kraft studios is taking that step even further in its gargantuan home production Koi Mil Gaya, a filmed aimed at all audiences mounted on an utmost expensive budget.
Director Rakesh Roshan has answered that call with what is in reality the biggest science fiction film released in India, and whom better to star in it than thee who is probably one of the biggest successes in terms of star children, Hrithik Roshan. Even from a star who has been put down in recent times for choosing films with at times indistinguishable scripts, Koi Mil Gaya is certainly going to be the milestone "different" film of his career.
Koi Mil Gaya features Rekha playing Hrithik´s mother, Preity Zinta as his one female aficionado, and the most talked about, six children who are Hrithik Roshan´s true supporters. But what this film has that no other even came close to is an alien. Bimmini FX of Australia in coordination with several other foreign special effects studios, have created the human like alien creatures of the film and other extra terrestrial objects to go with it, James Colmer, of the studio, is known for his work in many Hollywood films like Independence Day. Producer/Director Rakesh Roshan also features in the film briefly as Hrithik Roshan´s father.
