The incredible engineering behind Netflix #tech #stem

[zachm]

Already, netflix only streams 480p upscaled to 720p, which looks bad on a 1080p monitor and worse than garbage on a 4k monitor. What quality are they trying to preserve, and how does removing the artist's expressions and details help us get the image creators wanted us to experience?

This sounds like it will do things such as remove film grain noise, after many producers chose film for setting the feeling of the media they're creating.

In your video, you already displayed that they're removing subtle details by blending colors that were adding depth to the scenes.

How is this not just another excuse for the ever dwindling quality as prices increase?

I bought 4k and quality was like a pirate stream website. I downgraded to hd... nothing changed... I quit it.


Cause you can get the same shit quality for free so what the point to subscribe anymore?

Incredible. I wish women would appreciate this real-time optimization in men's financial provisions.
