Comment on How are films recorded

  So we have an electron scanner that scan higher resolution than limited resolution film… and we don’t need AI because the resolution is available if we were to scan it…? What…?

  No, we can scan things at a molecular level, I never said that’d produce a result beyond what’s there in the grain, why would you think I meant that?

  You also said earlier something completely different about film not being insanely high quality….

  I said it’s not infinite, film only carries detail down to its grain size. That detail is still insanely high, but not “infinite” and as such you won’t be able to just keep re-scanning it forever, at ever higher detail.

  I can only interpret the words as you’ve stated them, and you’ve argued multiple conflating and contradictory points.

  No I haven’t, you read meaning from my words that wasn’t there.

  Limited quality?

  Yes.

  Higher quality than we could ever see?

  Also yes. These things can be true at the same time.

  Can’t remaster forever?

  Still yes, eventually you’d be scanning at a higher level of detail than what is there. And by that point, you’d have achieved resolutions that exceed the human eye. Though this depends on what kind of film the master is on. Some works will be on grain and film sizes that didn’t have that high quality to begin with.

    I’m only addressing your first part and I’m done…

    Because you said you don’t need fucking Ai you clown. Jesus Christ, that’s the entire point of this now argument, you missed my entire point because you thought you needed to mansplain something, and have now caught yourself in a contradictory spiral.

    The other exchange we already solved everything else, there is absolutely usecases where my “hypothetical” situation already happens. Fucking hell

      And you don’t need AI to do the thing I was talking about, but you thought I was talking about something else.

      And no, there isn’t, you compared consumer film, vhs, and maybe early digital mpeg video with cinema film. Those formats are nothing alike.
