Finally had a chance to buy TNG season 1, and I am very disappointed with the video quality. I am not a videophile, and most of the time when others nitpick on picture quality, I don't notice what they are talking about. But TNG gets an F in my book for video quality.
Maybe it's just my disc, but I took the DVD to a friend's house, and he capped a problem frame and posted it. I kept on noticing annoying flashes/flickers when watching "Encounter at Farpoint" so I went back and did a frame by frame advance, and found several "mixed" frames like below. It happens so often in Farpoint that it is VERY annoying. What is the technical term for this affect? It happens on the PC too, so I don't think it has anything to do with pulldown, or does it? I haven't watched past Farpoint, so has anyone who noticed the problem below seen it in other episodes?
Anyhow, here's a cap from 31:34 into Farpoint:
Anyone else notice this?
Thanks,
