Well.. having a WMV9 source sure would itch me.. I'd consider that an unfair beginning.. I'd expect the source to be available in a format that is not one of the codecs to be tested. A high bitrate MPEG-2 HDTV broadcast seems the most suitable source imho.

The movies are DVD's at high bitrate and bigger resolutions.

That is not quite correct. In fact, most studios today make one high def digital master of a movie (unfortunately I don't recall the resolution and actual format.. but it's at least as good as what you can get via HDTV). From that, they make the HDTV broadcast, DVD and DVB broadcast. It is all the same source. So, DVD is a resized and recompressed version of the original digital master. Taking the HDTV version would get us much closer to the actual source.
