It is an issue for movies. There’s been plenty of “HD” Blu-ray releases that just used the dvd master and upscaled it.

- shiroiushi 2y agoReally? Any well-known examples? Why would they do such a thing, unless they either 1. don't have the original film any more or 2. are just being cheap?
- dawnerd 2y agoThere was a list floating around but its been a long time. Now days its very common to have fake 4k masters. https://www.digiraw.com/DVD-4K-Bluray-ripping-service/4K-UHD-ripping-service/the-real-or-fake-4K-list/ https://www.digiraw.com/DVD-4K-Bluray-ripping-service/4K-UHD... I don't think anyone upscaled a dvd recently for release on BR though, was mainly an issue right around when BR came out in the rush to get content out. Same with UHDs, today it shouldn't be as much of an issue.
