Here are some information about the footage material:

All above years are on Blu Ray. The quality is superior, depending on the source. In most cases the footage are directly from the HD source. Therefore the quality is nearly lossles to its original recording. The sound is stereo/surround AC3 / Dolby Digital.  The footage is HD-1080i  with the following parameters:

· Picture: MPEG2/ MPEG4 H264, bitrate min. 2000, max. 25 Mbit/sec, av. 10 Mbit.

· Sound: Dolby Digital 2.0 / 5.1, 384-640 kBit/s, stereo/dolby digital.

· All audio tracks are SYNCHRON to the picture in every edition/any year !

· About the new AI enhanced upscaled Blurays:
The material in e. g. 1980 BluRay was fully remastered and with a new AI engine enhanced to HD 1920x1080. This is a system that takes much time, but makes it look that fantasic! Please see the example file for further details:-)
