This image actually goes kinda hard.

in your opinion which cartoon series timed their cinema movie debut perfectly? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml
[–] TheImpressiveX@lemmy.ml 4 points 2 days ago

The original title was "South Park: All Hell Breaks Loose", but the MPAA wasn't comfortable releasing a movie with the word "hell" in it. So they renamed it as a subtle penis joke.

Ah, gotcha. It's annoying when people use "DVD" as a catch-all term for all optical media.

They're talking about 4K Ultra HD Blu-ray, which was introduced in 2016. The video is still compressed, but it's still much higher quality than DVD and Blu-ray, and can hold 60-100 GB of data.

That's true, but the DVD-Video standard only supports MPEG-2 at 720x576 (PAL), or 720x480 (NTSC).

Sure, you can put a 1080p AVC-encoded video on a DVD formatted as a data disc, but it won't play on a DVD player.

while DVDs are 576p-720p

576p is the absolute maximum. Most DVDs are actually 480p.
