Because…when you add subs, you will have to re-encode. When you upscale, you will have to re-encode. When you combine a non-upscaled BD piece with an upscaled HBO piece for a transition, you will have to re-encode. And when you do any of those things, quality will be reduced. I actually have done quite a lot of video editing. I’m not just pulling this stuff out of nowhere. And I’m certainly not trying to argue with you, but those are just facts. Will there be sections that won’t go down in quality? Yes. And I’ve not said otherwise. I’ve only stated - and I’ll do so again - that if some portions are going to look somewhat better and others are going to look somewhat worse, then I personally don’t see the point of doing what you’re suggesting. But I’m out of this discussion. I’m obviously irritating you, which is not my intent at all. Trust me, I SUPPORT your efforts if they yield results. Really, I do. I hope I’ve proven that up to now. As I said, make this thing better. I’ll be grateful to see what you can do, as will everyone here. 😃
