I’m enjoying all this technical detail. I have no bloody clue what is being said (it may as well be in Klingonese for all I know) but it looks like there’s several people who really know what needs to be done here.
As for CBS, every time somebody uploads a test video, I go watch a couple of episodes on Netflix. I think it’ll be the viewing figures for DS9 and VGR that make the case to CBS that they might have to pull their fingers out eventually as they’ll be the only two of the nine produced TV shows without a HD release.
Believe me, this is what I feel like when people start talking avisynth. I am still learning while doing but to be honest if there is a way to use a gui/user interface which is visually pleasing I prefer that.
I guess if you were to do it all the time, it becomes second nature, but I think everything in the general direction of avisynth isn’t for me.
