I dont think this will help him to figure out which is which? esp viewing on STD tv!! Both will have bars! Anamorphic fater than other!!


Don't underestimate Chenyang.

Another test:
Pause any motion frame. If it's clear one image, it's the old version. If it shows multi-images in one freeze frame, then it's the new version.


well hopefully, by hook or crook he finds the right one!! to me it seems new btach in stores is all anamorphic!

This might be old news, but did anyone know that the current Ayngaran release of KK is now progressive with in-sync sound and subtitles?

Comparison shots...

Sure thing. It looks like the cover and disk haven't changed, though...

I got my copy direct from Ayngaran - they've got a sale on at the moment.

Horizontal resolution is limited by the windowboxing. Don't know why they did that :roll:

Maybe for TVs than have overscan. Funnily enough though, only the first half of the film is framed like this.

Strange that they'd do it on just this title. I don't know of any other Ayngaran titles that are windowboxed.

That's what my DVD program captures NTSC screenshots at - 720x480 stretched to 852x480 to make the 16:9 picture.

Ist Release and Subsequent 2nd release:
BTW, technically, the difference is that the old version was Film to NTSC transfer where each video field contains info from only one film frame and every 5th field is a repeated field (24 fps converted to 60 fields per sec). This edition is/ was letterboxed in a 4:3 frame.

The new version is 'Film to PAL to NTSC' converted NTSC DVD and is field averaged. Each video field contains averaged info from more than one film frame. Even though this version is anamorphic, it's worst than the direct Film to NTSC converted one.
Had they made a PAL DVD from Film to PAL telecine and made it anamorphic, it would have been better than the original Film to NTSC letterboxed NTSC DVD.


Stephen, are you sure the version you are describing as Anamorphic and Progressive is not really the 2nd release that was anamorphic but field averaged interlaced ??

If so, is it the third DVD release of KK by Ann ??

Nope, the DVD is 100% definitely progressive - all the shots I posted were taken in Force Weave mode. If you compare them with Arsh's shots from the interlaced version, you can see the subtitle font is also different...

INTERLACED:

PROGRESSIVE:

And yep, it's also by Ayngaran - the cover and disk art are a few posts up.
