GitS 2: Innocence - BD vs. HDLite vs. R1 vs. R2UK vs. R3K
R3K is an R2J port.
HDLite is a 1280x1080 MPEG2 Broadcast.
Blu.ray is 1920x1080 MPEG2.

I find it interesting that the R1 looks better than the R3K in some caps but not in others, I know I definitely didn't mix up the caps. Weird. The BD is disappointing, during actual playback it is notably better than the DVD's but not nearly enough. The HDLite which has been around for a long time evidently came from the same master, they need to come up with a new one and a nice H.264 transfer.

There is a clear advantage to the BD disc over all 3 others. It's really noticable in the finer detail... I think the R3K is weakest among them, then the R1, the "hdlite" and finally the BD. even going from the HDLite to the BD caps is like lifting a blurry film away from the screen...
Could it bet better? I dunno, kinda depends on the source materials
(And it is possible the bd master was just upscaled from the hdtv broadcast --- it's been done with other films...)

So long, and thanks for all the fish!
