Sweet Jesus I Hate Celine Dion
Developing equipment that processes HD TV requires access to HD TV content. That's easy enough these days. With a VHF/UHF or a satellite antenna, one can pick up a dozen or more channels. What's hard to get is pristine, uncompressed HD.
One of our ultra clean clips is a Celine Dion concert. We've watched it for a year or more with no sound. But those days have ended. We're doing much more testing with video plus audio. And that's one of the few clips that allows us to look for lip sync.
My lord, what a truly awful experience.
