Oh and in response to -1, those look really dark. Way darker than I remember. But until I see them in the full context of the video it would be hard to comment more. If you post that scene (corrected) in one of your 35mm threads, let me know.

the original IS a lot darker than people remember it.

also, due to the nature of the print, and the bulb used

to project it. that has a big impact on it. we will try to

simulate that also in our version.

 

i'm sure harmy's version is very close to the ib tech

as it would have looked.

I'm sure this has been asked before, but if Harmy ever decides to go for round three, could parts of your 35mm project potentially be used as a superior source? I understood that the end result is supposed to look kind of grungy, from what I read in your thread.

  This is how Harmy made his V2.0.Just his is a shad brighter.I would say lower the brightness by 2% or lower the gamma just a hair,but this is Harmy and others edited's,so it's their opinion.      

...That's an IB Tech print, not 35mm. The one Harmy timed it to is in better condition and doesn't have the vagaries of how the digital camera processed the image or whether the Senator used the right bulb

 sorry I didn't know :(

Yeah, dw about it dude.

I'm not worried

It does look somewhat better on my Vizio tv upstairs after using PlayOn to stream the MKV up there. Same situation with the 1080p projector in the basement using TVersity. They look better, but still very bright.

are you talking adout my calibration topic, if so just increase the brightness on you computer monitor,and if you are not sorry, :(

Thanks for the myspleen invite

Cobra Kai

Have you heard of this new invention called the PM?

yes

I was on my Ps3 on you can't PM on the internet,

I won't be off topic no more

finally got to watch this today, for the third time, in proper fashion (51" plasma, 5.1). my friends, this thing not only has to been *seen* to be believed...you've gotta hear it, too. I need to get a better sub, I've discovered.

That reminds me though - where are we on syncing Scofield to GOUT? It would be nice to use that audio with Harmy and esp puggo grande. I would do this myself if I knew anything about syncing audio properly

And I could watch it again. It's almost like watching for the very first time, what with all the little nuances and details that I now pay attention to which just aren't in LD rips and upscales.

we'll work with harmy, of course,

once we're done with our version.

i'm sure there are some parts that

will be helpful.

I showed this to a couple friends on the 40" HDTV with THX-certified speakers and subwoofer.  They were thoroughly impressed, and one of them went and brought their external drive so they could have it.

Although everything is digital and HD, it took us back to the 1977 experience, without blatantly exposing the limitations of the cinema experience back then.

I think that is what 2.0 is all about, and my hat's off to you, Harmy!

Correct. Only collectors through grey-ish means have 35mm prints. 16 and 8 mm were home formats.

I downloaded this last week. I haven't watched it all yet just a few select scenes.

Many thanks Harmy, your work is outstanding. And your time and effort is appreciated. Good luck with your exams.

And a big thanks to those who uploaded the links on teh, much appreciated.
