What speed problems are you having?

 

Nothing in particular. I was just wondering if I could speed the process up.

Oh, I see.

Please post (or link to a post with) your computer specs.

We might be able to find some extra wiggle-room.

On the bottom of the back of my BD covers, I'm putting "'Despecialized' Restoration by HARMY" under the credits.

Should it say "preservation", "restoration", or "remaster" or anything different instead? I 'm not sure I want to put "edition". This is the theatrical edition in HD. Somehow saying "edition" makes it sound more like an edit, which it is not.

 

"Theatrical Restoration (Despecialized) by Harmy, Remastered" seems to be most accurate.

Just make sure not to say preservation.

It occurs to me that it's not simply a remaster, as a remaster implies that there was a singular previous master which was reworked. This was stitched, spliced and recolored from various sources. It's a restoration to the original version... but then it's also remastered to HD, as neither the original nor any other version to come afterward ever looked this good.

Then again, it's obviously remastered, and it's a remaster of itself kinda (ie. v2.1/2.5), so maybe the credit "and Remaster" isn't necessary.

I could just put "Restored and Remastered by HARMY" without the "Despecialized", but then how does that help other people to know where this awesomeness came from if they go looking for it?

Well, remaster actually means (or it should) creating a new master from scratch. Which is why I called v2.0 DeEd Remastered; it's not a remaster of SW, it's a remaster of the Despecialized Edition.

Also, AntcuFaalb, here's my current set up:

Incidentally, if I were extremely nitpicky about it looking professional, I'd have a thing about wanting to put Harmy's real name there. However, 1) again, that doesn't help people find it online and 2) Harmy may appreciate his anonymity, given the whole underground nature of this sort of thing.

Then again, I do know what Adywan's name is.

But it's probably really rude to ask, so I'll just leave it "Harmy".

You also know what Harmy's name is. You just don't know his first name.

I do? Wow. Okay, then.

I do actually have an add on USB3 card. Unfortunately only one of my USB3 HDDs works with it.

The GPU's pretty bad, but I don't really play games, so it's not that much of a problem. 3D effects in After Effects are pretty slow but I don't use those much either.

As to the menu, I was actually thinking about MultiAVHCD but I'm not sure what its capabilities are or how complicated it is. I do have Adobe Encore, that came with Premiere CS5.5 but I can't quite seem to figure it out.

Another question, I found out that dts-hd doesn't play on my system, neither as a separate file, nor muxed in with a movie. Why could this be?

Thanks, I'll look into it. I was curious about it, because I used to be able to play dts-hd without problems. It must be because I uninstalled Power DVD - I could re-install it but I don't want that horrible piece of sh.. software anywhere near my computer.

That's not his last name. It's based on it...

 

Google+ seems to think it is.

I can't help put feel like I opened a can of worms. Sorry, Harmy.

Ah, thanks for pointing this out.

I was just going with what I saw on Google+.

Oh, absolutely. The menu background will be the same, only with minor tweaks to the animation.

And can you make sure that it doesn't recode your content?

Audio selection menu will be important in this case, because it will need to identify not just language but also the different mixes and commentaries and stuff.

Yeah, that's probably why it looks so unprofessional to me - the rest is official looking, the text overlaping to those ares is not.
