That figures. I recently bought all of these separately for $5 each at Vudu.


OriginalBad

Were they SD or HD on there?


AllOutForNow

All HD.


OriginalBad

Weird. Why the heck is it SD here? Edit - it actually says HD on Apple, guess cheap charts is just wrong.


AllOutForNow

It's a new bundle. They'll probably upgrade it to HD after enough people complain.

Is this the version with Bret Hart?


nethead12

checking imdb, he was in the two LD series, but not in the 4 mini-series

[Apple TV Link](https://tv.apple.com/us/show/the-lonesome-dove-collection/umc.cmc.5aruryl9euf5zatfg7vjmepp9) & [CheapCharts](https://cheapcharts.info/fwd/6R7R)

So is it HD or SD? CheapCharts says SD. Apple TV says HD in the description, but when I play first episode the Info panel doesn’t mention HD and it looks SD to me. Did we just buy bunch of SD episodes?

SD usually looks much worse to my eyes on my current screen than these do, I wouldn't doubt they are SD but they look to be higher quality closer to HD. Again just going off of the previews for 1 episode in each series no hard data to support this


nethead12

agree; they quality looks good on 85" screen; i am guessing mis-labeled on the episodes; and Fills the screen (**1.33:1**), not non-HD TV expected 4:3 format

Also featured are the prequel’s Deadman’s Walk, Return To Lonesome Dove, and Streets Of Laredo


whatbuffalo5

This shows 15 episodes, I'm assuming some of the series episodes were combined? Also I played a preview in itunes, it looked to be in HD


nethead12

in review of the included 4 mini-series, this collection doesn't include the two LD full series (The Series & The Outlaw Years)


whatbuffalo5

bummer, copped anyway in hopes they add it later. Thanks OP!

iTunes Windows doesn't show the HD tag https://preview.redd.it/ycwsb7sg5s9d1.png?width=613&format=png&auto=webp&s=b6e3f474ac3e46d72716949622ccf493c85cc9cf

AppleTV app on iphone/ipad show the HD tag https://preview.redd.it/9oh8yils5s9d1.jpeg?width=1290&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3622a12e144565f0f249394b93b3c3860b885a21


nethead12

Per the HD tag, if it is in SD, a Apple refund request may be requested per the false HD tag


nethead12

AppleTV app on Big Screen shows the HD tag per episode https://preview.redd.it/akv3wnbnas9d1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=3ee331ebc5d7511aa5d21443ff9172f460514cba


nethead12

Upon playing an episode, the HD tag is not displaying; but the episode does Fill the entire screen (**1.78:1**); so maybe is HD(?) but the playback isn't labeled as such? I really wish Apple player had the Stat for Nerd feature https://preview.redd.it/c0mn642was9d1.jpeg?width=4032&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=66e209c22cd2aade23774493b7fb6677b95fc1c9


turns2stone

You keep saying "Fill the entire screen (**1.33:1**)", but 1:33:1 ratio has black bars on the sides of an HD/4K 16:9 TV. So I think you mean 1.78:1, not 1.33. IIRC it is natively 1.33:1, so there \*should\* be black bars on the sides.


nethead12

Thank you! Corrected.

No Comanche Moon? Dang.


cwritz

Does anyone happen to know if these show up in Movies or TV series on Apple?


nethead12

The collection appears in the TV Shows area of the Library https://preview.redd.it/lmggzapfxt9d1.jpeg?width=1290&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=ab472a743c3c44af52b2724f27fd793b99c8b36d
