Hmmmm. Usually a video match alone is enough for an automatic takedown. And it takes some ridiculously distorting video filters to get around that (which that particular video doesn’t have). So I wonder how they were able to fight (and win) a takedown.

Someone recently uploaded the six films from blu-ray sources and they lasted a while. I think in most of them he ended up removing a few shots and segments of audio that were detected by contentID. It’s no way to watch a film, but I was quite surprised that it worked.

It’s not inconceivable that the contentID isn’t matching. Not a single part of a frame is actually pixel-for-pixel a match to anything they’ve got set for their content. Different sharpness, gate weave, color differences. It might have been enough.

Allegedly fighting a C&D about it is the part that baffles me.

Anyway, this was a nice reminder of how well the project turned out in the end. Great work, guys.
