Those comparisons are really promising. I would not have expected such great results by a 540p upscale.

How good do these work on the first frame of a scene change? Do they work only half as good as there is a previous frame missing?

How many frames does it take into calculation in general?

Nice, I wanted to do something similar, but did not have the software.

Please post some screenshots as soon as you can!

Nice take on the colors. I like it! Please more samples ;)

Looks better, but take a look at the purple artifact line on the right.

I am aware that the Blu-Ray is not the best you can get, but I wanted to know if what I have is HDTV rip everyone favors or if I have a bloated-up 19 GB DVD-quality rip. But I think is it obvious...

Well, in terms of video quality, the Blu-Ray rip I have is far superior to what people were referring to as the supposed HDTV rip in this thread, but I am not really sure if it's rather the DVD than the HDTV rip:

Can anyone confirm what I have now? I cannot find screencaps to compare to.

Thanks

Ok, then I hope you won't disappear from this forum before you can release it ;)

I'm interested, but as far as I understand, there is no form of a (n unfinished) release yet?

Hey,

just wanted to say that the Picasa comparison gallery that is linked in the first post is down, if you have not noticed yet.

Only a few post before yours, Harmy posted this:

OK, the fixed MKV is up at tehparadox now!!!

So the one at paradox is the fixed one.

I am still able to find it.

@ Byakko

just search for Harmy.

Harmy said:

Actually, I'm planning two MKV versions, the main one with 15000Kbps BD compatible stream and lossless audio and then another, cropped to 1280x542 [...]

Can anyone tell me, why the main release is not cropped?

Thanks Harmy!

Yeah, it's not really noticable. That's why I pointed it out, but you probably know every pixel of every frame with so much work put into it ;).

I just recently read about MPC+madVR (I followed this tutorial), was using VLC all the time before because it's so easy and plays nearly everything.

I wondered if you can use madVR to yield even better results for upscaling the GOUT as a source of the Despecialized?

Hey everyone,

has anybody already mentioned the small tilt that the background gets in the scene where Leia is holding the blaster on the Tantive IV (around the 6:21 mark)? I noticed it when I was comparing the 720p to 1080p upscaling render output of the VLC default renderer with MPC+madVR (which results you can see here if you want).

The tilt can be seen in the fourth frame of the gif animation, look at the grey circle for example, but it's basically across the whole frame:

(reload linked page to restart animation... sorry)
