| Element | What to look for | |---------|------------------| | | No pixelation in dark scenes (the Cooper house living room at night). | | Audio sync | Dialogue should match mouth movements – HDRips can drift. | | Watermarks | Some HDRips have channel logos (CBS) or hardcoded foreign subs. | | Crop/Scaling | Should be 720p with no black bars (it’s native 16:9). | | Bitrate consistency | Action scenes (minimal in this show) should not block. Use MediaInfo. |
