I did not know that. Was anyone else outside of Sony doing that? I was under the impression that LD's always used either NTSC or PAL masters that would not fall into what we today consider "high-definition" i.e. 1080 lines of resolution and that high definition mastering did not become the norm until 1998 or so. I can see LDs of new films in the 97-98 period coming from HD transfers but going all the way back to 1993 is a big surprise.Moe Dickstein said:HD masters were going on for LD perhaps 4-5 years before DVD was introduced. If you had a movie from Sony on LD post circa '93 you had a disc from an HD master.
