A few comments:
The Itunes captures look a lot better than the video does in motion, there is a lot of macroblocking and jaggy color gradients.
The laserdisc looks good in motion - but is the softest of the bunch.
The DVD image is actually pretty good. In terms of cropping - it takes a little of the top, a chunk off the bottom - and obviously adds a lot on the sides. There is a lot of dirt on the negative in places which is sometimes distracting.
Any thoughts ?
