Any High-Def amv'z?

I've seen some really high quality amv'z, but they look like 420 dvd rips. I was wondering if there is a 1080 or even 720 pi hd amv.

Or do they not even make anime in hd yet?

Corrections:

(1) DVDs are either 480i or 480p. Not 420, you fucking stoner.
(2) Anime is broadcast at HDTV resolutions these days, i.e. on some Japanese TV stations and (in the U.S. anyway) ADV's Anime Network. DVDs remain the most popular, though, because:

(a) there's only two real ways to get these signals: capture them yourself, or get raws from fansubbers;
(b) most people don't have the equipment, knowledge, or motivation to do the first action, and using DVDs (or, heaven forbid, fansubs) can be easier than snagging unresized raw footage.

I think one or two of DJ Izumi's trailers were hidef.

Very few anime DVDs have been released in high-definition. You won't be seeing these for a while.

I didn't think that anything had been released (i.e., out on disc) in HD yet- just broadcast- because there hasn't been a standard settled on yet for it...

Dvdplayers cant read HD yet so there is no resson for the company's to release anything in HD as its just trowing away disks... only thing your gonna find atm that is HD would be either stuff that people themselfs animated (cause HD filming is just to fucking expencive) or HD raws from someone who actualy recorded it off they're HDTV with the right means... wich isnt very likely cause a HDcapture system is MF'n expencive...

Hollywood has. Though we woent see anime on HD till jap developers/tv guys settle on a standard, which realy they should have done by now as they're allways a few years technologicaly ahead of everyhere els.

Wow, a guy makes a minor mistake and ya call him a fucking stoner. Seriosly wow, I dont even go that far towards something so small when I'm seriosly cut. The opportunity is just too cheap.

Actually if you deinterlace (assuming your output is 480 pix tall) technically you are working in "HD." Although that's a load of crap, why would ANYONE invest that much money in equipment if it just creates a progressive image of equal sharpness?!

As for 1080i it would be idiotic to release an AMV interlaced in this age. Yes it sharper but it?s interlaced. I only know of ONE receiver that can do a progressive 1080 and that?s a Pacific Digital unit they don't even manufacture any more; but to do so you have to drop the frame rate to 32Hz or 24Hz.

I have seen a couple of AMVs in a 1024x768 (just over 720) but they were all interlaced and the footage was stretched and wretched. All of my LD caps from about 02-04 were at 1024x768 but were once again stretched and interlaced. The reason no one does this is because "HD" capture cards are still expensive as hell and hard to come by; not to mention unless you happen across an HD-DVD or can get HD caps from Japan you are just shit out of luck.

All right... as someone who has actually worked with the Varicam system, HD decks, the capture cards et. al, I feel obliged to throw in my own experience and knowledge as to what is and is not true HD on the market today. There has been a lot of misinformation and reference to premature market influence represented in this thread and... you see, there are... professional...

You know what? It's just easier to call you stupid.

(Notice how I didn't refer to anyone in particular? That way, if someone gets mad at me for calling them stupid, I can deny it.)

I'm pretty sure that ADV had begun to release a thing or two (notably FMP and Noir) but they stopped for some reason...
