 Depends on the source format.

 Source can be NTSC 4:3, NTSC 4:3 letterbox, NTSC 16:9, NTSC 16:9 letterbox, 
PAL 4:3, PAL 4:3 letterbox, PAL 16:9, or PAL 16:9 letterbox.

 In all cases, "Perfect" grabs the mpeg2 vob without modification and all the 
audio tracks. Excellent, good, etc. were all based on examples from the 
transcode website. They vary depending on the source format.

 This is all explained in the mythdvd README-database file.
