Peanuts Holiday 4K upscales
Time

I searched high and low for some the holiday specials that were never released in 4K due to Apple buying the rights (Happy New Year, Charlie Brown - Be My Valentine, Charlie Brown - and It’s the Easter Beagle, Charlie Brown).

Finally fed up, I discovered ‘CapCut’ did a good job in upscaling the 720/HD copies I had into 4K. For those that don’t want an AppleTV+ subscription, you will want to check this out. I am not that technical so I am not going to be the one you ask to make multiple edits to this as a forewarning, although I do welcome your comments.

Hello,
May I please ask for a link to download DrDre’s theatrical editions? I sent him a pm, but haven’t got a response.
Thanks very much

No one has heard from DrDre since October 2023. Seems like he is busy with other stuff. So no wonder you got no response.
I would recommend writing in the dedicated thread (for the theatrical cut) because I imagine there are more people with the download-link then here.

he replied in another thread just a few days ago

Does anyone have the link to part 2, and a corrected part 1?

  1. Part II is not finished yet. Have to wait for DrDre.
  2. What do you mean with “Corrected Part 1” ?

Back when I PMd DrDre for part 1 he said there would be a corrected part 1 when part 2 comes out. He didnt say what that meant though. I assume that’s what ConstipatedSpidey is asking about.

Oh. He didn’t mention this to me 😃 Interesting. But kind of makes sense to release one final version where both parts are matched.
Well, sadly I haven’t heard from DrDre since end of September 2023 😦

Yeah, same. Hopefully he’s just working hard on it.

There was a comment a few pages back saying he had to take time off the project for work but would start again in January so hopefully we’ll get an update soonish

That was my comment 😃 Its the last message I received from him.

That’s right. I guess I misunderstood the message about Part 2 and thought it was done.

extracting surround sound mix off of youtube
Time

Hey there, there’s some music on YouTube I like and the only surround sound mix I know of is on YouTube. The video sadly does not have the surround sound mix so I wanted to extract the surround sound mix from YouTube and overlay it onto the concert video. Anyone know how to accurately extract the surround sound mix from YouTube?

Super excited for this release, thankyou for your hard work!

I am interested, how does the Upscale process compare to the real 4K releases regarding the process followed?

Level of Detail is as good if not better than the 4k-Release (Mainly because there is no DNR applied). You might say that the 4k-Bluray looks sharper but that’s only because PJ and his team added digital sharpness on the official release. The Version from DrDre looks more natural imo.

Color grading comes down to taste. The 4k-Bluray might be more neutral but I don’t know if you even want that in a fantasy movie ^^ Either way: This Upscale my favorite version of the Movie and the one I will keep on watching.

I might be editing the movies and remove some scenes from the extended cut which I don’t like.

I personally would love to see to see the theatrical version with the Elves leaving Rivendell and Gabriel’s gift giving scene kept in.

This is disappointing. I thought this was going to be a “Charlie Brown in 4K” project, but you are just asking if some of the Charlie Browns are in 4K anywhere other than Apple TV?

Yes.

Then why?

If creating a new thread that is NOT a fan project… please give fellow members a clear idea of what the thread is about. For example, add ‘Query’, or ‘Info’, ‘Discussion’, ‘Help: looking for…’, ‘Help Wanted’, ‘Info Wanted’, ‘Has anyone done a project on X?’, or ‘Idea: for Project X’ etc to the thread title. It annoys members to see lazily titled threads that appear to be projects on here - to open them - and only to find it is some lazy git just looking for a project, or wanting a link, or more info, or wanting someone else to make a project for them etc. Please do not make new threads for which there are project threads already in existence.

If the site moderators ask us not to do just this, then why do it?

I didn’t know. I don’t use this site much and the post was only 3 sentences long so…

Help: looking for... Charlie Brown in 4K
Time

Hello, I am trying to find a way to download the more difficult to find Peanuts specials in 4K (as Apple TV+ is now monopolizing them). They used to be for sale on Vudu and iTunes in 4K so I’m hoping they’re still available for download somewhere. Specifically, I am looking for the holiday specials not available for purchase in physical or digital any longer (New Years, Valentine’s Day, and the Easter specials). Could anyone point me in the right direction, if they’re available?
