I couldn't see the difference at all, but then I didn't want to push the screen with excessive brightness. Instead I relied on the subtraction and the histogram to find the differences, which were almost zero.
'almost zero' is not zero.
you are actually proving my point.Eric Stevensnospam
nospam has backed off considerably from his original views but I expect that won't stop him from trumpeting them again in the future.
i have *not* done any such thing. stop lying and twisting what i say.
i have *always* said it's not lossless and it is not.
this is a fact, no matter how much you or anyone else say otherwise.It's as lossless as anything else you can do. --
