I’ve been re-watching star trek voyager recently, and I’ve heard when filming, they didn’t clear the wide angle of filming equipment, so it’s not as simple as just going back to the original film. With the advancement of AI, is it only a matter of time until older programs like this are released with more updated formats?
And if yes, do you think AI could also upgrade to 4K. So theoretically you could change a SD 4:3 program and make it 4k 16:9.
I’d imagine it would be easier for the early episodes of Futurama for example due to it being a cartoon and therefore less detailed.
If the AI is only drawing in unimportant objects, I wonder what the value is?
At the risk of ruining the original framing, the potential gain is stuff you aren’t supposed to focus on?
Who is out there watching classic TV shows who isn’t adapted to the old framing?
