DVD chroma upsampling errors

2008-05-14 18:34:44.468252+02 by Dan Lyke 0 comments

When DVDs first came out, I had an "ewww, all the artifacts make this unwatchable" reaction. This article on a very common DVD chroma upsampling error may be 6 years old, but is interesting reading, and I'd love to see how many modern players still have the same problem.

Relatedly, the MeFi thread that I got that from also mentioned a 25 year old bug in the BSD *dir() libraries.
