The sad thing is I that on the SD DVD version of Planet Earth (I only watch upconverted DVD's right now), they BUTCHERED the quality. Many people will assume it is because it's SD, but that's not even it. They shoved SIX HOURS of footage onto each SD disc. That requires so much compression it's ridiculous. Even for a 3 hour movie like the Godfather they will usually make it span two discs. Watching upconverted stuff usually looks pretty damn good if the bitrate of the SD DVD is reasonable... but the Planet Earth DVD's are not even worth watching unless you get the HD versions. A very stupid (or gimmicky AND stupid) move on their part. Gimmicky if they are trying to exaggerate the difference between SD and HD. We watched 3 episodes of it in broadcast HD right after getting our TV and loved it, but then they stopped airing it. www.WingsuitPhotos.com Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites Join the conversation You can post now and register later.
