And yes we all know you meant the Zoom button on your SONY WIDESCREEN TV, we skipped player's zoom buttons discussions.
If you have any more questions please read the answers to your questions before asking them
Escapay, you took that long to see it was a pan/scan?
The reason you see variations in screenshot vertical areas are often various. mvealf's screenshots were taken direct from his tv that had some overscan; this Cinemascope 2.55 transfer made from the negatives not only shows more width than the cropped 2.35 previous one, it also shows more vertical image , particulary in the bottom, judging from some of the screen cap comparisons I've seen; also, on top of that, a transfer may use a slightly diferent sliver of area from the camera image in the negative cus the Camera Aperture is always bigger than the precise intended Projector Aperture (usually 5% bigger than the Projector intended Aperture) so in a new scan this might be positioned slighly different (That's why the Camera Aperture (or "hole") is slightly bigger, accounts for any mechanical errors in printing/scanning); and last but not least, sometimes the captures are not from the exact, same, frame! ok?
I think we're splitting hairs by now.I guess you didn't read Paka's post pointing to a possible, easy, source for the Academy version. Shucks...
. Thanks for all the time you put in to watching everything, getting so many great screencaps, and writing so much to answer all our questions... and getting all that done at lightning speed too.
