I’ve started to buy the Blu Ray set a couple times but the lackluster reviews with respect to image quality have kept me from it. My coughs archival copy coughs of the series is of reasonable quality. loses balance on fake pegleg, crushes fake parrot
Sorry. I’m out of practice. Wife won’t let me sail those waters anymore.
I aquired SG1 on a lan party a decade or so ago, then when I moved out from my parents I bought the entire SG1 and SGA series on DVD, then a few years ago I built a new computer that could easily handle ripping DVDs while playing minecraft and watching YT, so I finally got to replace most of the seasons that I aquired at the lan party with proper DVD rips.
Sounds like they always had 16:9 footage, and just cut it down to 4:3 for the original broadcast.
All episodes were filmed in 16:9 wide-screen, although Stargate SG-1 was broadcast in 4:3 aspect ratio in its first years.[40] The transition to the broadcast of episodes in the wider 16:9 ratio gave directors more freedom in frame composition.[41] The first three seasons of Stargate SG-1 were filmed on 16 mm film, notwithstanding scenes involving visual effects that had always been shot on 35 mm film for various technical reasons. After a test run with the Season 3 finale, “Nemesis”, Stargate SG-1 switched to 35 mm film for all purposes at the beginning of Season 4.[42] Digital HD cameras were used for filming beginning with Season 8.[39]
