ive had this idea for a few years to remaster the toonami midnight run special edition block from 2001, but not having the right sources and skillset or even any kind of plan has stopped me from pursuing it

well i think i at least have all the sources i need to put it together, and while i dont know really know how to edit i can probably figure it out

there are complete two HQ captures on the spleen of the first and second airings, the premiere tape from JUSXTREME96 is VHS 640x480p @ 59.94Hz, while the encore recording from nanto is DVD-R 720x480i @ 29.97Hz

here is a list of my current sources for the content:

01 MAD RHETORIC (slimd716 1080p)
02 ONE MORE TIME (syncr0ndi 1080p)
03 AERODYNAMIC (syncr0ndi 1080p)
04 DIGITAL LOVE (syncr0ndi 1080p)
05 HARDER BETTER FASTER STRONGER (syncr0ndi 1080p)
06 ADVANCED ROBOTICS (slimd716 1080p)
07 BROKEN PROMISES (slimd716 1080p)
08 TOMORROW COMES TODAY (phase one PAL DVD 576p)
09 19-2000 (phase one PAL DVD 576p)
10 CLINT EASTWOOD (phase one PAL DVD 576p)
11 HELL BENT (vimeo 1080p)

one issue i have run into already is the 5555 upscale has a strange logo that appears in the bottom right corner every few minutes which is apparently a DVD artifact of some kind ? may have to use something else instead

plus all the bumps in between songs that would come from either of the tapes, which i could maybe clean up and upscale with something like ERSGAN ?

my point is this : im dealing with multiple framerates and resolutions and im not really sure which people would prefer – HD or SD? preserve 60Hz or just stick with 30Hz?

what are your thoughts ??

thanks in advance

updated this spreadsheet for myself but ill share it here again https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1-Xf-m8OuOXuZuQPcj4u270PctnH4DvqQjtEzEJr7eG8/edit

Also another thing to consider - the 1995 redub with the golden voice himself Don LaFontaine that was only available on VHS through Kellogg’s mail-in offers.

I’ll be sure to donate when I can for a chance to have a full set of docs. Thank you for doing all you do, poita.

No SFPX? Still quite the exciting news though!

I think it’s made in the Czech Republic, actually…

they are hosted on http://www.bitmeister.com, so i suppose some of you have issues loading that…

What does that have to do with it?

I also switched to my laptop and still don’t see these.

I remember that shot with the spider being waaay darker

The best color reference is the THX Deluxe CAV Laserdisc, which uses a film based master as opposed to the DVD digital master also used by the Blu-ray.

Yeah images don’t show up in the first post on mobile for me.

Gotcha

Would it be possible to conform it to a BD-25 or even BD-50 compatible ISO?

Dre, will your version warrant an HDR release for 4K77?

.

I second a collaboration between the both of you. Pool your sources and talents!

Throw it up on the spleen.

I’ve been trying to get a GT project with the English dub off the ground for a while. I own both the Green Bricks and the singles.

So what are ya up to anyway, Molly? Just projects in general.

Yeah I’m looking forward to an update as well.

HH might be doing some audio work related to 4K77 in the near future

Did this ever get released anywhere?

They really ought to make a name.

.

Is it possible to rip that stream?

Someone made an HD recreation of FSWTJ using Despecialized and it’s pretty neat. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eUczUdIYMyM

I’d rather watch an original source that has been worked on than a reconstruction not in the same aspect ratio.
