Author Topic: 4k trailers on Trail Mix this week Frank Cox Film God Posts: 2234 From: Melville Saskatchewan Canada Registered: Apr 2011 posted 11-03-2011 12:57 AM                        I was going clicky-clicky through this week's Trail Mix drive preparing to ingest it earlier today and noticed a couple of 4k trailers on it. The regular 2k versions were there as well. I don't recall seeing any 4k trailers on there before.  |  IP: Logged Adam Martin I'm not even gonna point out the irony.

War Horse, Tinker Tailor, and Dragon Tattoo have all had 4K trailers recently.  |  IP: Logged Justin Hamaker Film God Posts: 2253 From: Lakeport, CA USA Registered: Jan 2004 posted 11-03-2011 06:26 AM                        We ran the War Horse 4K by mistake before realizing there were two different versions. There didn't appear to be issue with the 4K running on a 2K setup.  |  IP: Logged Carsten Kurz Film God Posts: 4340 From: Cologne, NRW, Germany Registered: Aug 2009 posted 11-03-2011 08:16 AM                     Yes, that was even in the very early DCI specs - that 4k content can be played on 2k equipment without the operator even taking notice of it. It's also inherent in the j2k compression used. - Carsten  |  IP: Logged
