WEG DVDs have been very inconsistent in quality. Some are excellent and some are worst than 4th generation VHS.

In the recent days, I have noticed at least 3 Progressive DVDs. There sure are more, but can't recall the names.

There also are some Pseudo-Prog and Anamorphic.

Here are some surprise Progressive WEG DVDs that I noticed recently:

WEG Jai Hind (Manoj Kumar's)
WEG AJOOBA (Too bad, no one has been able to find a playing DVD. All are rotten in 2nd layer)
WEG Yeh Hai Mumbai Meri Jaan (Saif, Twinkle) Bit rate around 7 mbps, DD 5.1 @ 448 kbps
(Added later as per Arsh: WEG TOOFAAN is prog too)

Pl. add comments on other good/ bad WEG DVDs. I too will add some, later, as I come across them.

---------------------------------

BTW, the 3rd title Yeh Hai Mumbai Meri Jaan DVD has "Premiere" and no WEG tag on it. There are many DVDs that have Premiere as well as WEG tags on them. Present listings show this title as WEG.

Indeed!! I have gone through searching some of these titles from WEG too, and have found some with very good quality prints, e.g Preetam, Anjaana etc. and there were a few just trashy!

I think Toofan singh was progressive!

The following that I saw recently, are no DEIs or like the 4 Progressive ones mentioned above (Ajooba, Toofaan, Jai Hind, Yeh Hai Mumbai Meri Jaan), but they are among the better WEG lot. Most likely Pseudo-Prog:

And, the worst than 4th Gen VHS ones:

Another strange thing about WEG DVDs is that you see Single Layer as well as Double Layer DVDs of the same title.

For example, Shakti SL is crap 3rd gen VHS type and DL Shakti is among WEG best.

Same with Hanste Zakhm.

Any others ?? Can't recall the names, but I think, there are a few other such WEG titles I heard of before.

-------------------

I don't know whether WEG released VHS sourced DVDs first on SL and later re-authored and released better versions on DL ?? Or, someone making shrunk copies with or without right holders blessings ??
