What's with the 4,000 lines? Isn't that a bit of overkill?

No. If you're gonna do it, you should do it right the first time. Remember, these may be used for other things besides DVD too.
Thanks.

The more you scan the better the interpolation will be. Everyone with a scanner knows this.

Wow, impressive, but if they are scanned in @ 4000 lines wouldn't the size of the movie then be too big to fit on a DVD?
