Doctor M: Interesting example in that 133% oversize screenshot. And, like you said, we have to factor in that these are relatively low quality jpg's that you are using. The X0 team has the uncompressed full quality video files. Which if they precisely up-sample frame-by-frame before converting it to anamorphic format with an up-sampling method that gives the very best picture quality possible (retaining the original detail, clarity, etc. extremely well), the anamorphic version should look very good indeed. Maybe it's not such a problem, after all. I just want to retain that great image quality that the X0 team has been able to extract from their excellent transfer from laserdisk.

And an anamorphic transfer means the picture will fit 16x9 t.v.'s properly without having to use the apparently not very good looking "zoom" feature on t.v.'s to try to fill the screen.
