Do they crop the top and bottom of the frame, or is there a complete restoration with a larger aspect ratio?
Sounds like they always had 16:9 footage, and just cut it down to 4:3 for the original broadcast.
All episodes were filmed in 16:9 wide-screen, although Stargate SG-1 was broadcast in 4:3 aspect ratio in its first years.[40] The transition to the broadcast of episodes in the wider 16:9 ratio gave directors more freedom in frame composition.[41] The first three seasons of Stargate SG-1 were filmed on 16 mm film, notwithstanding scenes involving visual effects that had always been shot on 35 mm film for various technical reasons. After a test run with the Season 3 finale, “Nemesis”, Stargate SG-1 switched to 35 mm film for all purposes at the beginning of Season 4.[42] Digital HD cameras were used for filming beginning with Season 8.[39]
Fucking what? Ok, where the fuck do I find the show?
Damnit!
Would have been funnier to link to a pasta sauce product page
I’ve started to buy the Blu Ray set a couple times but the lackluster reviews with respect to image quality have kept me from it. My *coughs* archival copy *coughs* of the series is of reasonable quality. *loses balance on fake pegleg, crushes fake parrot*
Sorry. I’m out of practice. Wife won’t let me sail those waters anymore.
I aquired SG1 on a lan party a decade or so ago, then when I moved out from my parents I bought the entire SG1 and SGA series on DVD, then a few years ago I built a new computer that could easily handle ripping DVDs while playing minecraft and watching YT, so I finally got to replace most of the seasons that I aquired at the lan party with proper DVD rips.

I was referring to the pirate sea which for legal reasons I must inform you is what I call my bathtub. 🛁🏴☠️
Yeah, but why would wife care? Did you get a letter because you didn’t VPN? Hogging house bandwidth?
Not at all. She’d just prefer that we stay on the right side of the law.
