dear all.. what's the idea to keep downgrading the quality from videos that were already released in its master source quality?
just wonder if you already have a MPEG-TS 1080 that it's a proper format from the days and years that we are living, what's the idea to come back to the 90's and release DVD's, what if we come back to the VHS trading by copying the MPEG-TS in tapes and start to trade them by postal services like in the 70's and 80's ??
just wonder, what is this all about ? it's about "dvd collection" and all the videos that we got need to be put in DVD or because not everybody can afford a TV-set with USB input to play mkv, ts, mpeg2 files directly without the need to downgrade the quality and /or to use just a dvd-player set?

please do not misunderstand me, i really like collect stuffs like all of you, but come on we are in 2015!!

I've already explained this many times.. DVDs are for 14" TV sets!!! it just make WORST whatever source that you put on it even if you're amateur or professional in dvd authoring. the DVD quality specs ARE OLD and LOW.

nowadays VHS tapes can be easy transferred to bluray! (at least!) or even higher formats.. maybe you think "but VHS is SD quality anyway"... and I will say.. "yes it is SD" but VHS doesn't have PIXELATION like DVD.. and everytime you make a "backup" from a VHS to a DVD, you are just KILLING the material, even more if later you take and send the VHS to the trash.

I repeat it again and just to remark, I'm not against authoring, but authoring to a format that worth the job, time and resources used.

you're here because all of you are fans, and all the fans look for the best for the band that follow, not only in the live concerts but also in the material that it's registered in video, so please, do not kill what it supposed to be the backed up and stored in its best quality available.

I really like to read your comments and feedback.

i think most people are not familiar with the tecnical side of videos/bootlegs etc. and there are still people who don't have the equipment to play every format to enjoy a show on their tv screens.

I couldn't describe it better, that's the truth. Technically speaking downgrading an hd file in a format whose specs are old and low, is getting a worse material. Knowing that I'm always keeping raw hd files. On the other hand, authoring it into a dvd format is a solution for many people (me among them) who don't have the best equipment to watch it. Plus, I know that many of us really enjoy authored shows instead of trying to find the next chapter by selecting fast forward. It's not a question of quality, that's surely answered, it's a question of practical use. I wouldn't compare it to a return to VHS/the old days but there a lot of people who don't have blu-ray players or big hd screens. As a result, dvd format is still widely used.
Anyway, these authored versions are shared freely here as the the original files. There was no effort to make one choose between them and it's up to everyone who is interested to download and watch.
I want to thank you for these remarks, I can understand your way of thinking, I have nothing to reply in terms of quality and technical specs.
You have been always a really concerned guy who provided all this nice stuff to the community and I am grateful.
Also, because I know that you never denied to offer your help on these technical matters.
