Dissertation on video image quality--good read

[LiamC]

though because of a few shots at an NVIDIA sponsored ATi v NVIDIA white paper, I don't know how long it will be up for (see pg 8).

Get it while it lasts

It's a great article, a real reference that everyone should read.

Although the article is highly critical of the white paper, here's the conclusion:

The irony is that even though NVIDIA's scores were inflated by Principled Technologies, their "key findings" are ones I still agree with completely. Namely, that NVIDIA PureVideo is superior to ATI's Catalyst 5.8, that PureVideo is superior to basic DVD players, and that PureVideo minimizes some of the common artifacts seen with de-interlacing.
