Blu-ray™ is so exciting because we now have the opportunity to see movies at home in higher resolution.   HDTVs offer the promise of the best home viewing experience ever, but noise and grain, which are part of the fabric of the theatrical presentation, are challenging compression engines, resulting in pictures that often are not a huge leap forward in quality at home.

Roughly 80% of a movie’s revenue comes from a compressed source.  Jitter, weave, flicker, image instability, noise and grain consume compression bandwidth, limiting our ability to compress the images well.  Our unique pre-compression technology can stabilize images, reduce grain and noise and enhance fine detail so movies compress quickly and beautifully.

Plasmas, DLPs and LCDs have very different characteristics than our old Standard Def TVs.  We have the knowhow to optimize the look of your catalog movies for today’s displays.  You provide us with a clone of your color approved transfer master, and we’ll return it to you in about a week, specifically tailored for superior compression and without the hassle and expense of remastering or re-color correcting.  For new releases we can fold our pre-compression services into your DI workflow so that your Dcinema and Blu-ray releases deliver everything today’s audiences expect.
