I don't think so, I think the flag is in the bitstream and doesn't affect visual output at all. You still run into significant quality loss trying to get around it that way. The point is that HDTV is a popular consumer technology, and the MPAA and TV networks alone managed to hijack it. -- "War is the father and king of all, and some he shows as gods, others as men; some he makes slaves, others free." --Heraclitus (Kahn.83/D-K.53)
