What capture for the video are you using? DJ's or one your doing on your own?
(I still haven't recieved my copy of the Faces widescreen/p&s, but when I do i'll be sure to post.)

Are you going to capture the Definitive Collection Supplementals to go along with these sets?

re: DarkJedi Faces Widescreen DVDr's :
One word : Macroblocking.
I really appreciated the cool menus, the quite good quality interview segments, but the film itself - ARGGH! I appreciate the fact that it is a raw capture, no filtering or anything, but the entire idea of a straight capture is lost when your encoder literally destroys your project. I don't know how many gigs a straight, UNTOUCHED transfer would be, but the compression seems to be a big problem for you Preservation Set creators. I don't know what encoders you all are using, but it looks like a really bad DVDShrink, as seems to be becoming the norm with these transfers. Have you ever heard of a multipass VBR encoder called "Cinema Craft Encoder?" It is the only compression encoder worth having. Clearly TMPGEnc or whatever you guys use is vastly inferior. Professional studios are known to use CCE, and there is a very good reason - it's the best. If you guys are having trouble obtaining this program, I'd be more than happy to see that set creators have access to it (msg me). Maybe you all watch your Star Wars discs on 13" black and white conventional tv's - but I, for one, have 1680x1050 resolution - which really shows the flaws, even in retail DVD's. These are just plain unwatchable. You seriously can't tell me you don't see the shockingly horrible macrblocking and text-aliasing on these discs. From the first words in the scroll, to the last credit in the reel, there are constant square segments of video that are painfully visible - which is a side effect of a low-grade encoder grouping frame areas together and encoding them in blocks; making for a very fast, totally garbage encode. I am sad, angry, and disappointed all in the same bag. And I know if it were my project, I simply wouldn't release it like this.
"Oh sweet Jeebus, let the X0 Project use CCE...."

Hey, I already said I was sorry for offending (kinda goes without saying around here), and I don't mean to stab at your efforts or anyone else's. But the fact remains, and I stand by my assertions. And thank you very much, but I did throw the "damn thing" away - 2 clicks - folders gone. And I would love to do my own, but naturally I'm not going to buy a player for one project - particularly when acceptable versions do exist - I'm just always looking to improve
I've said it before, and I'll say it again : I would love to do some LD compression to DVD - provide me a true RAW source. (*X0 guys : I don't care if it's a hundred gigs, I'll send you a drive )And yes, you can see some of my work... Just as the last time I criticized the Cowclops V2 (for pretty much the same flaws), and I challenged anyone to view my recent CCE of a certain disc and tell me multipass CCE doesn't smack the face of any other compression encoder, you can do the same now. Simply grab a copy of "Charlotte" (ID1878) from a.b.starwars, and take a look at what 10 hours of encoding on a newer machine - with good software - can do to make a 7.8GB source compress almost flawlessly to 4.32GB.

I said nothing about piracy. The trial version will just leave a watermark - which, in all honesty, would probably be in the black bars. And, "There is another".......For you budget-minded users, Procoder is a very good multipass-capable encoder, and not nearly as expensive as the full version of CCE.

(FYI, the X0 will be multi-pass CCE DVD9 unless something better comes along.)
Halleliuah! Exactly what I was hoping to hear. I bought some DL discs recently for the low, low price of $2 ea - with the intention of one day having X0 on them
Dark Jedi : Hey, you can at least say you tried. And don't let my, or other opinions, hinder your future projects and technical knowledge growth. Practice makes perfect - the more times you encode video, the better you will get at it and the better you will understand it. My opinions are always to be taken with a grain of salt, as I am a quality PHREAK, and can be somewhat of a troll
You still own the tools necessary to create projects that far surpass your first efforts, and I encourage you to practice, and try different software packages."It is better to die for the Emporer than live for yourself."
