Don't get me wrong. I do appreciate the effort. But 460 meg per cd is not going to give good quality.
We need to score these rips according to the the source.
Centropy's TS version has better picture.
And they got an 8 on video.
When you rip a vhs. The playback should look almost as good as the original
Lets get real with the scoring
5/6/6
Um, the only person who needs to get real is you my friend (no pun intended, it just sounds catchy). Step back into "reality" for a second and realize that this is a VCD and those familiar with the format would know that compliant VCD's are CBR. With VBR encodes you can fiddle with video bitrate to stretch/decrease the filesize to whatever specified size, however VCD's use a constant video bitrate of 1150kbits. When in comparison to CTP's you have to compare other factors also, VBR MPEG2 vs. CBR MPEG1... dv res vs. analog vhs, sound, ts flicker, amount of image cropping, and angle? Play most SCREENERS on your standalone and you'll see that most do look like the "original" vhs. And already posted by another, GOD help us if TCF didn't know how to encode With schooling newbie completed, back to this release, I'd give it a 7/9/2.
