"It’s grayscale, not just black-and-white."

Just in case reading TFA is too daunting for those only reading comments

I was alluding to the difficulties of frame-rate conversion, dithering, and compression artifacts in the original source being amplified by the conversion. Grayscale by itself isn’t the issue.

  • But the person you replied to "it only has two colors (black/white, 1/0)" which is what I was referring

    • Yes, but I don’t think that black & white vs. grayscale makes a significant difference. Naively converting grayscale is virtually as “dead simple” as converting black & white.
