I've read in several places that png files are best for lossless quality, so I figure they're good for permanent backups and can be copied/converted to jpgs for gifs and such.
It was interesting last night reviewing the caps for Episode 19, how even batch-capping at a rate of 1 in VLC really doesn't catch all frames. The scene in SID where Shen Wei slaps the ladder, none of the caps captured that, only his grabbing it ladder afterward. From Shen Wei's noticing Zhao Yunlan's nosebleed to ZY saying he felt fine, there were only 249 caps, so I went back and did a frame-by-frame advance/screenshot. Shen Wei's slap took only three frames, it was that fast. I finally just fbf'd the whole section for micro-expressions, etc., and it went from 249 to around 1500-2000ish. I wonder if it's because of the medium, if batch-capping from a DVD or blu-ray would have a closer ratio of frames to caps.
