It's the right aspect ratio, it looks very good and I LOVE that ending! Would it have killed them to have both on the disc?!

I agree, pretty dumb in my opinion, so can anyone capture this? I would love to make a Blu-ray out of it.

Does anyone have Netflix to try it? and does Netflix stream to PC's? I am only familiar with the DVD side of things LOL.

I have been googling for info for a while now and can't find anything concrete lol, does anyone know if Conan The Barbarian is streamed in 1080P or 720P? also does it have 2.0 or 5.1 for audio? and at what frame rate does Netflix stream their HD files?

Thanks

I am going to figure out a way to get this one way or another lol, there just has to be a way.

Audials does not work, it only captures in 720, or I just can't figure out how to use it, and GetFLV does not work either.

but this project is going forward, I am going to make a Theatrical version of this, I just really hope I can find a way to edit the existing DTS-HD MA audio I just fixed on the Blu-ray to fit, but I do need something to make this happen(hopefully) does anyone have this German release of the Theatrical version?

if so, please PM me.

1 more thing, as much as I like to think I know everything about this movie, I do not, so can anyone verify if the only differences between the Theatrical and International is the scene with Conan and Subotai( the Spring Wind talk lol) and the ending?

I really hope someone has that DVD I posted a link to above, but I also found another file that might be of interest to this project, I have the Conan The Barbarian LaserDisc and it is Theatrical, so there is a source for a lossless LPCM.

Thanks for that link, it appears I am right, the only difference is the added Conan\Subotai scene and pretty much the whole ending sequence, that should be real fun editing all that.

Not sure if anyone really gives a shit about this project lol, but I did capture the lossless LPCM from my Theatrical LD last night, I am currently working on a rough cut of the ending to see if it can actually be done in 1080P, but the rough cut will be 720P for testing, there is no color correcting done yet, like I said, this is just to see if it can work, because the ending is really, really different between theatrical and extended, lots of different cuts, angles, length of shots, etc.

If this does work out I hope at least some of you will watch it and give me suggestions, the color is really different, but since I am trying to use the Blu-ray video as much as possible, I will have to match the Theatrical source to this, unless it is recommended to go the other way, I actually like how both look myself.

Here are some sample pics of what I am looking at, sorry for the small size but this is how I compare them to make sure I have the cuts right.

I think the Blu-ray looks more realistic(bottom image) but the color of the Theatrical looks kind of cool as well.

The Blu-ray timing reminds me of the Star Trek II BD. Same cool, desaturated look, with the reds and oranges and yellows muted.

I just think the theatrical looks better...

You know looking at them more, maybe I should make the Blu-ray match the Theatrical, that is what I am trying to do here right lol, but I need suggestions on how, damn I wish I was better at color correcting.
