My losslessly-compressed (Lagarith FTW!) VHS captures are ~60GB for a 2-hour movie and that's at 720x486.
- coldtea 13y agoSure, but why compare it with losslessly-compressed video? That's just for editing -- all viewing formats feature lossy video.
- TylerE 13y agoIn fairness, they also feature lossy audio, although that's less of a ratio around 6:1 for a typical consumer DTS track, maybe 8:1 for AC-3/Dolby, compared to 5000:1 or more for video. (Uncompressed 6 channel 16/48k is ~4Mbit, typical DTS is 750kbit, occasionally 1.5Mbit, AC-3 is around 450-500kbit)
