In the end, a TS is still a TS... you can add nitrous and aerodynamics to a honda but under the hood it's still a honda Sounds better, looks slightly better but still plagued by it's distinct similarities. Video still 40% cropped around the edges (especially the bottom), angle still apparent, motion blur and luminance flicker common in telesyncs still wreaking havoc, grainy video is even more noticeable and looks only .01% better than the SVCD. Supporters can go and call everyone else names and think CTP is revolutionalizing the scene by releasing DVDR TS's but in the end it just wont work. Why you ask? For the same reason divx/xvid ts's didn't (and still doesn't) work (nice try though DEiTY)! Some formats are meant for it and some aren't. CTP did a great job being the first to encode TS's as SVCD but that was only successful because they were moving from an outdated videocd format to an "improved upon" vcd format (SVCD) mainly to rid of pixelation and improve clarity, with a DV source you can only stretch the quality to a certain limit (the SVCD/CVD formats are basically THAT limit). Don't get me wrong, I'm not "hating" on CTP but just giving my opinion and prediction of the matter. Formats like DVDR and DiVX are meant specifically for DVD, that's what they're optimized for.. No one wants to grab 4.7GB's worth of TS (even on 100Mbit links.. Hell!, some don't even bother with/allow DVD Screener DVDR's), it's not worth the time, bandwith or my $0.65 DVDR disc. And with the DVDR Scene having somewhat established rules like the divx scene, the fans and supporters will just keep throwing rocks at it until it's 6 feet under. As for DVDR quality rating, 5/8/11. peace!
BTW, anyone who's someone in the movie scene even in the weakest groups knows about what JoshNya posted. It's just not scene ettiquette to discuss it with ignorant (I didn't say stupid, because that's not what ignorant means) forum posters and non-scene related persons, it's just not right. Props TGSC for cracking the DTS discs though, and kudos to CTP for trying something new even though I have my doubts and dislikes about it.
