Blu-ray forum ugh! sorry, they are sheep on the whole.

But yes is is the best of a bad bunch but not by a lot, I would aim for a 1:1 encode on the video tho as all the advantages will be lost if not.

Have you tried syncing the "CDS" track yet? I cannot for the life of me get it to lock in. I am in the process of ripping the Dolby surround track from the first LD

Do not worry at all about the video, it will look good, we will lose nothing in what we do.

I have not tried yet but it is all ready to go.

Please share your thoughts on our teaser color screens on the previous page, thanks.

You guys never disappoint! Those samples look worlds better than the original!

Holy cow! Amazing colour. I liked the new T1 colour timing anyway, but I do agree that the purist part of me wanted that detail with the original colour timing, and this looks very good indeed.

Damn, that is good work! I would personally dial yellow up a little as they look a little on the pink side. Mine you I would be more than happy with the version, I hate the teal carp the shoved our way.

But it looks more like the Terminator than a "professional" studio managed 

Well we already compared the T2 releases and we decided this version is better of them all, but please share your thoughts anyways.

Well we are getting some not so good comments and the Blu-ray Forum lol, we are now worse then Lucas, here is a quote from HDvision,

"These shots are ridiculous. If you like the video look, keep the old Blu-release. You are destroying the original look, I hope you are conscious of it, you're worse than Lucas. You want the movie too look like the bad transfer you are used to. It's all wrong."

We have dialed back the red a little more and I will post new teaser screens soonish.

OK here are the new screens, there are a lot of them lol, so please share your thoughts with us, thanks.

*new ones coming*

OK So what extras that were available on DVD did not get ported over to the Blu-rays for T1 and T2? there are not that much for T1, but were there some missed for T2, while we are at these we may as well port over all missing(or at least try) extras from both releases, also was there any Isolated Score on any of the releases for these 2 films?

Thanks

 Warned you about that place! They are armchair encoders without knowing anything about it! 

The green/white screen thing shows how bad the transfer was

They are DNR defender's and Cameron fanboys, HDvision will always defend the terminator disc as perfect

The skynet has all the extras bar the guns and roses video from the laserdisc,  but I have that ripped along with the trailers if you need it

New shots look close to perfect I would go with that

Thanks, we will probably need them, so ALL extras have been ported over then for both T1 and T2? if so this will make things move a lot faster then lol, so it looks like more of a recolored movie with theatrical audio BD, I could have sworn I read some bitching that some extras were not ported over, but in this case I am glad to be wrong, less work for us.

So were there no Iso Scores for either film? if not, well who knows, maybe an all new extra like we did for Conan.

Thanks for the help

Will upload it when I get home

Oh man, those screencaps are glorious!! GREAT JOB!! THIS is how blu-rays should look.

Just wanted to add that the red actually hadn't been dialed down in those last shots. Seems something went wrong on DJ's side when he got the latest script from me, but I bet he will update the screens soon.

While it still looks good, it looks even better with slightly less red. :)

Huh must be the lighting in the scenes, but the second set look better than the first ones. Are you changing the second movie also? or leaving as is?

Yeah I guess it's because DJ posted more screens this time, you could see the difference much better in dark scenes where the teal shift was much more visible.

By the way, for anyone wondering what we base this color correction on, it's first of all the fact that the original teaser and two theatrical trailers all share the colors of the old blu-ray release, and second is to take in account the RGB balance of greys to get rid of any tint that shouldn't be there.

It is great work, better than the one I made by far, I went more with the yellow of the syfy channel UK HD showings 

OK here are the new ones, I went smaller in size to upload them faster, if anyone wants to see anything specific please let me know, thanks, and as before please share your thoughts on these.

That last one of Sarah is perfect, the sky is blue again!

For terminator 2 are you guys only  doing the theatrical cut?

Those screen shots of the first terminator look awesome by the way!

Yes, only Theatricals here.

We need help on extras guys, we, our Team has the US Special Edition DVD and the UK special Edition, and now thanks to dvdmike we have the video, if there is no Iso Score I may look into what are the best CD's available and slap one together lol, so please help us figure out what is not available as extras on any of The Terminator BD releases.

Thanks
