Your first record of AMC HD Saga have excellent quality but now Epic looks really bad and 720p release (14.5GB) looks proper (colors, grain).

Why your first AMC record look proper and now Epic looks unwatchable…

So we need someone who can make or have proper record and send it to you.
Problem solved.

OK let’s get real: my version of Epic doesn’t look “really bad.” You’re comparing screencaps which is ALWAYS a dangerous thing to do. Had I released my 45GB file, you’d all be perfectly fine with it. Trust me. However, since we have a direct comparison to something that’s not been re-compressed, you’re noticing differences. However, I’d be perfectly fine watching my recording until the end of days, if there were no other alternative. And I’d be none the wiser.

In fact, I’ll bet you take that AMC recording and compare screencaps to the HBO and it will have all the same problems.

There’s nothing I can do about cable systems re-encoding their signals when they send them out. There’s only ONE system that doesn’t do that. It’s FIOS. And, unfortunately, I can’t get it in my apartment building.
