So I finally captured this today and, well, the results weren’t good

Here’s the comparison between the 720p version that’s been released (14.5GB) and my 1080i from my Time Warner digital cable.

I tried using BOTH Hauppauge machines that I own but it doesn’t matter. It’s the source material going into the box. I even tried the HBOGo version and it still doesn’t have the detail that this 720p version does.

I would suggest that if ANYONE knows the people who originally captured this that they beg for a 1080i release. I have a feeling that, however they got it, they got it from an uncompressed HBO feed, which is why it’s so clear, even for a 720p version.

I’m bummed. Seriously.
