So pretty much accurate and the closest possible to 1.85 in UHD resolution.


On BD, 1.85:1 is usually 1920/1040 = 1.8462, which will give you a slighly more opened up impression (exactly two more pixel lines).

But there are sill many BDs at the truest 1920/1038 = 1.8497.


2 pixel lines may seem like nothing, but indeed I've always noticed this slightly different visual impression when the BD actual resolution is 1038p instead of the more usual 1040p.

I hope Wayne Knight sees this. He would love it.

Probably just in case any of the "trash talk" upsets anyone. I'm sure it constitutes as bullying now. LOL!

Doesn’t Bill Murray refer to Pound as “that chunky guy” or something similar? Haha
