Screencap subtypes

If we had subtypes for iTunes, Broadcast, DVD and HD captures, that would allow us to keep track of image quality and upgrade screencaps as better soure material becomes available. --Peter Farago 11:30, 14 April 2006 (CDT)

Agreed. Will implement. -- Joe Beaudoin So say we all - Donate 11:36, 14 April 2006 (CDT)
I don't think that {{HD-screencap}} is adequate for both HDTV and DVD sources. I'd suggest the following Hierarchy (vertical resolution in parentheses):
  • iTunes (176 lines, widescreen)
  • NTSC Broadcast (480 lines, letterboxed to 360 lines)
  • PAL Broadcast (576 lines, letterboxed to 432 lines)
  • NTSC DVD (480 lines, anamorphic)
  • PAL DVD (576 lines, anamorphic)
  • HDTV Broadcast
  • 720 lines, widescreen
  • 1080 lines, widescreen
  • HD DVD/Blu-Ray
  • 1080 lines, widescreen
I'll go ahead and implement this with your approval. --Peter Farago 16:18, 14 April 2006 (CDT)
