Rome Season 1 release date, Stargate SG-1 masters?

Sorry I missed your earlier query! It is still being worked on. We identified some issues with the way the content was encoded and have found improvements for those. There's still an issue being investigated, however. Long story short, the video is a slightly odd size (presumably a non-square pixel thing). That's what's causing the player to show it as HD even though it is actually SD. I'm not sure if that's going to require another transcoding change or if it will be addressed in kOS.

Any updates on the Stargate SG-1 encoding issues? The first 3 seasons aren't really watchable with all the combing and other encoding artifacts.

Also any word on the rest of SG-1 seasons being added ?

I have a feeling the SG-1 sales dropped significantly after I complained about the quality then Kaleidescape abandoned the project for bringing the rest of the seasons due to poor sales (and too much work) ;)

Any updates on the corrected Stargate SG-1 seasons? It has been one year since I reported the encoding errors last December.
 
I really apologize for the delay. I took a look at the escalation ticket that was created for this, and it seems like there are a host of issues with the source material. Some progress has been made on getting a good-looking encode, but there's still an issue at playback time because of the non-standard resolution. I've asked for some updates on what's happening on that front.

Thank you for the update. I am looking forward to the corrected downloads and the subsequent seasons.
