Those specs are moot

66.74.50.111

All of those specs are merely the electronic capability of the DVD player's circuitry. Not the material being played.

COMPRESSION kills the benefits right away. Take a DVD of a major movie, and find a scene where the camera is stationary. Now watch the images in the background refresh only three or four times a second, amidst coarse color and luminance gradation. That's pathetic.

So, with DVD we get pixelated crap delivered to our TVs with perfect clarity. What a step forward.
