Mr. Sasquatch Active Member Member since:Oct 2017	Are "HD" Streams of DVD movies just up-converts? For a movie that is available on DVD, but has never been released on Blu-ray, when that movie is available on streaming services and marked as "HD", is the stream just the SD Master up-converted to HD? The studio probably never made a true HD Master for an older movie that has never been released on Blu-ray, right? I've run across this situation before, but currently I'm looking at the 2008 movie "Goodbye Solo". I'm deciding if I should rent the Netflix disc or pay a couple bucks for the "HD" stream, if the PQ will be any better with the stream. Last edited by Mr. Sasquatch; 02-21-2021 at 12:57 PM.
