thank you, meedermow, for your comment. It is funny you mention our War of the worlds edit as an example for better quality. Of course the disc size is 4.3 gigs there, BUT especially this edit was the one where we were not satisfied with the picture quality (somewhere above I explained what happened). For VIOLETS we used the same bitrate setting as for WOTW TEC with the difference we stayed with MPEG files this time, instead of recoding to uncompressed avi first (which always gave us an interlacing problem). Since there is much less movement in VIOLETS (the movie could be considered as rather calm), the size needed for the 97 minutes is much smaller, still the quality does not differ much from the original DVD (and this was an even worse DVD quality than War of the worlds, crispy picture, obviously taken from VHS master), we used more contrast and added some colour to get rid of the noisy and pale picture. What makes WOTW TEX so big is the extras actually, we had far more deleted scenes and the broadcast slideshow. So, although I do understand everyone (and you are by far not the first, meedermow) to ask for using the full capacity of a DVD, just because it sounds better, the quality would not differ much (believe me, we tried that), so we stick to small sizes for upload reasons. Hopefully you can still enjoy the outcome. AND if ever someone feels like creating an HQ version of one of our edits, feel absolutely free to do so, I would really love to see a dual-layer version of deZIONized for example.
currently seeded editions:
deZIONized
War of the worlds - extincitve cut
Creasy
Hannibalized
Violets

Hi, newbie question here. When you change the title of a film for a fan-edit do you also change the title in the actual movie, or is it just on the disc and case labeling?
I'm looking forward to seeing some of these edits.

When you watch a CBB edit, this is exactly what you get. With our first three edits these changes were rather embarrassing, because we didn't know then how to fade out text (it's really true) and so we had to let it move above or beyond the edges to get rid of it. Later on our presentation of credits and titles got much better and we are still improving and learning with every new project. BUT althought the first efforts were not the best we never thought of them as a problem, because even major productions use to have very weak intros and it isn't so hard to compete with them after all.

As far as the video quality of WOTW is concerned, you did everything you could with that. The DVD release of it had <i>terrible</i> video problems. I think IGN gave it a 3 for video quality. The bootleg I had of it had better video than the DVD release. So all you could do was try to shine a turd.

Am I right here? (This is my 250th post on this forum, obviously I had a lot to say).

YOU ARE CORRECT. THE COVERS JUST KEEP GETTING BETTER. I'LL HAVE TO GET MY HANDS ON JAIL BIRD AS CON AIR IS ONE OF MY WIFE'S FAVORITE MOVIES.

meanwhile here is a sneak preview peak at our following project: Blade 3 - Behead the king edition. NEOtheONE designed one terrific cover.

I don't know what new material there is but it would give you more to work with.

The changes for Blade 3 are not all clear yet, but one thing is clear: Hannibal King will be hardly more than a supportive part of this movie. Jokes and swearing will be filtered out a lot and the entire atmosphere will be darker and more worthy of a Blade movie. This could also mean that our edition becomes very short (probably not more than 60 - 70 minutes), but who cares about length when you get entertainment?

Anyway, we are very proud of JAILBIRD. It is one of our best edits as of yet.
I am currently looking for an official PIF-spreader of CBB edits in the USA or CANADA. Anyone volunteering for the job? PM me.

If not you should consider a switch. Superseed mode is suppose to prevent uploading to people who previously received blocks but don't appear to be passing them on to anyone else.
It also requires much less for you to upload for the torrent to get healthy.

20 people downloading. Actual overall speed about 400kbit/s (which is not much but acceptable). I am uploading with an average of 80.

Can see this being pretty healthy soon - getting 30-40kb rates btw (and that's with seeding Rikter's latest Spleen-up as well).
