And another clueless butthead crawls out of the gutter to insult its

You gnomes are a bit slow to initiate your usual "piling on with unrelated
personal abuse for no good reason" routine in this thread - there's usually
about a dozen of you jumping on the bandwagon by now.

Same sex.

No wonder you're still a virgin then - we all have higher standards.

Guesswork? You're obviously no engineer! I don't think you'd
recognise a vertical-temporal filter if one hit you in the face, but
for your elucidation here's the patent which explains how it works:

As for your other points, they just repeat the same old
misconceptions. I'm not going to bother to counter them again, as it
achieves nothing.

Ah..the wit of the unrestrained intellectual. Brings back memories of
primary school.

Hint, try googling before making a tit of yourself.

LOL. It's not *that* difficult to see why your fan base might be
diminishing.

After a while I realised that it wasn't missing but was in the top right
corner instead of the top left. During a later programme it was back in
the top left. I've just had another look and it's in the top right
again.

Puzzling.

Let's hope they are experimenting and will settle on the BOTTOM RIGHT as a
location. This is used by the USA broadcasters and is far less intrusive.
It's rarely on people's faces, for a start!

It can happen though. I've watched episodes of the Tonight Show with Jay
Leno on CNBC that have had two MSNBC DOGs on screen, one top-left-ish
and the other top-right-ish. I say "-ish" because they are not close to
the corners and often obscure the faces of Leno and the guest he is
interviewing.

Oops! Make that CNBC DOGs. It seems that recently the left DOG has been
moved to the bottom so that guests' faces are no longer obscured.

I tend to put everything in layman's terms on these groups because, incase
you hadn't noticed, most of the people here aren't very bright.
Seizing on my justifiable use of a particular word and using it as a brittle
stick to slap me with is an old and devalued ploy.
For what it's worth, I've already read papers on the 3-field deinterlace
method used in broadcast ARCs.
We both know deinterlacing is a lossy process, and you've already admitted
this, so the discussion is moot.


As for your other points, they just repeat the same old
misconceptions. I'm not going to bother to counter them again, as it

That's a cop-out if ever I saw one.
Kudos for evading most of the issues I raised anyway, especially that of low
BBC HD bitrates which countless numbers of viewers have complained about.

I'm sure primary school must've *seemed* like unrestrained intellectualism
to you...

ooh look, an unsubstantiated random comment.
An idiot might think you knew more than me after reading that.

What randomness are you prattling on about now, gnome boy.

Ohhh, clever. Can't even think up your own abuse. Better luck next
time..

Evidence? (bet you'll not have any)

Are you saying that 'an idiot' is one step up from where you are now
then?

Doh..you've snipped out your own answer to that. Not to worry, like
quite a few here, I've set my sights low.

Next...
