/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!
Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.
~ 1. No bigotry. This is a Star Trek community. Remember that diversity and coexistence are Star Trek values. Any post/comments that are racist, anti-LGBT, or generally "othering" of a group will result in removal/ban.
~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.
~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.
~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.
~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.
~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.
~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon'
~ **8. Political commentary is allowed, but please keep discussions civil. Read here for our community's expectations.
Fun will now commence.

There's a (pretty good) reason for that: TOS and TNG were mastered on film, which means they can get more resolution by rescanning it with better technology, but VOY and DS9 were mastered directly on videotape. There's no HD/4K release of those series because high-resolution data never existed in the first place.
So if the original recordings still existed on film, you'd be able to do it, if you redid the mastering using said film?
They do. But the VFX/CGI do not.
Surprisingly, much of the original CGI source does exist. And the models were overdeveloped and thus basically usable as-is.
But it's still a lot of painstaking, manual work.
It's a money problem, not a technical one.
Good to know, that this is only a money problem, so it might be done in the future.
