Question on Timeless Media Tales Of Wells Fargo (1 Viewer)

[MCCLOUD]

I know Timeless Media released Tales Of Wells Fargo Seasons 1 and 2 and part of Season 6 on DVD. My question is how do these releases compare in Video and Audio Quality to what is being shown on Encore Westerns? I have Encore Westerns.
I have also learned that All 6 Seasons of Tales Of Wells Fargo are available for streaming on Amazon. How do the streaming versions compare with Timeless and Encore Westerns? I have never done streaming and would prefer DVDS. But not if the video and audio Quality are substantially less than Encore Westerns and streaming.
Thanks in advance to all who can provide some information!

Like night and day!!! Once you see these on Encore Westerns you'll never go back!

I would prefer physical media too but we're all going to need to accept that streaming will likely be the main source going forward to view remastered classic television.

i subscribe to www.starz.com.Easy and best way to cherry pick. In july and jan they usually add and drop 1 or more shows,I hope they air Rin Tin Tin,Cisco Kid which is in HD altho the prints are not great) and Sugarfoot/Bronco.But keep on Laramie and Tales of Wells Fargo- 2 of my all time favs.Also add the complete Lone Ranger and Lancer.

Warner Archive streaming was copyguarded so you couldn't record to DVD (although you could to VHS). I haven't found any of the current streaming services a problem to burn DVDs from.

For some reason the men from shiloh is hit or miss in quality. Some episodes look good and others look kinda bad. The first 8 years however look quite good especially the garth years

Don't hold your breath. It's all about.
Money & Copy Rights.
And who has the copyrights can hold out.
Until they get the $$$$ they are asking.
And it may be way out of line. ?
Just a thought!

It's perfect 4x3 on my tv/phone and tablet and in HD

Decades had Lancer but that's a fox show. Encore/Starz has never given us any WB show other than maverick, lawman and Cheyenne. I never understood it but it's been that way for nearly 15 years.

It's 4x3 on my 100 inch projector screen. If it's looks 16:9 could a settings issue that has it zoomed in or stretched

Actually on Starz streaming its copyguarded but not on on demand.

Are the episodes on dvd complete or cut?

Are the episodes on dvd complete or cut?

The dvd is complete in terms of episode length but have audio problems. The version on bluray is perfect and cleared up the audio issues. Same company that released the outcast did the bluray. The version on streaming is what it looks like but a little better on disc.

I pulled my DVD set out and they're cut by around 6 minutes, coming in at 1:10 or so. Where did you get the idea they were complete? Those shows ran 1:16 plus.
