PROPER REASON-SHORT VERSION
The REiGN release is interlaced.
PROPER REASON-LONG VERSION
Soft Telecine=progressively encoded 23.976fps with 3:2 pulldown applied so as to output
interlaced 29.97fps
Hard Telecine=interlaced encoded 29.97fps with the duplicate fields/frames actually encoded
into the video
PPF recently released a patch fixing some things that never should have made it into the
release, such as it freezing after the movie completed, and wasting our time with warning and
text screens that should have been removed. But the largest and most glaring screw-up can't be
fixed with a simple patch. It takes a whole new level of incompetence to start with a
progressively encoded source and turn it into an interlaced encode, and that's what REiGN did.
They took a soft telecined source and encoded it as hard telecine. 25% more frames were encoded
than necessary, and 40% (2 of every 5) of the frames are interlaced (much harder to compress
than progressive frames). The result is a release with 40% or so poorer quality than had it been
done correctly. In the Proof folder is a small sample from the R1 DVD source, the REiGN sample,
and DGIndex pics (DVDR_Comparison.jpg) showing the differences between the 3 samples, the DVDR
sample being in the usual Sample folder. Just play the REiGN sample in any
player where you can advance a frame at a time, or open their sample in VDub(Mod) and advance a
frame at a time. You can't miss it.
The French audio was removed, along with the garbage. The other extras were kept. They include:
*FINDING THE BURN: (5:31@2990) Making-Of docu
*DC INSIDERS RUN AMUCK: (12:24@3000) An all-star cast creates the world of Washington, DC,
insiders
*WELCOME BACK GEORGE: (2:51@3095) A comedy piece featuring George Clooney returning for his 3rd
collaboration with the Coen brothers
