I'm curious about the "progressive forbidden in DVD" thing. On one hand, it makes sense to me, since standard TV sets are interlaced output devices, and the simplest thing is to just require that the DVD stream directly maps to the output device. On the other hand, there are all those "progressive-scan DVD players" out on the market, which I take it are generating a progressive output signal to be fed to an HDTV monitor. How does that work? Aren't most movies on (NTSC) DVD encoded/stored at ~24 fps, and then 3:2 pulldown/up magic is applied to decide what data should be sent out as the next field? Isn't such an MPEG-2 stream basically progressive, but with markers to indicate which fields to duplicate for upconversion to ~30 fps interlaced output? -matt m. ------------------------------------------------------- This SF.Net email is sponsored by: INetU Attention Web Developers & Consultants: Become An INetU Hosting Partner.
