Hey MonkeyLizard10! Colors look phenomenal! Especially when comparing it to the previous 35mm that’s floating around!

I AM having a weird issue with the 5.1PCM track. From 01:49:35.958 it seems the center channel and the right channel, switch? I’m honestly not sure how else to describe it. Voices that should be coming from the center channel are coming from the right channel. But everything is good up to this timestamp. Anyone else having this issue?

Receiver - Sony 7.2 Multi-Channel AV Receiver Model: STR-DH790

Thanks! But as for the audio. Ah dang, that’s right at the change to the last reel. Yeah I tested it and listened for that and yeah it sounds off and I doubt the original CinemaDTS would have that wrong. (although it seemed the center was coming from the left? not right?) I guess I must have accidentally slide the center up to the top spot by accident in the ordering at one point and had it above left channel and so they swapped. Huh you know when I was timing splicing tracks I found the center easiest to do that with and I slid up to the top for easier comparison and dang must have forgotten to slide it back down. Let me go look at the audio files.

EDIT: Yeah dang the C accidentally got left up in the L spot so L became C and R became L and C became R.
I’ll have to fix that up. So both 5.1 tracks will be bad for the last reel and the tiny section of inserts region for the optical track will also be bad there (to a lesser degree).

I also found out how to fix the inserted frames going pink issue.

Anyway yeah thanks for spotting that major error. I always wondered how the studios could be so dumb at times to put out releases with swapped audio channels and stuff. Well… I sure guess I now know LOL yeah. When tired and in a rush stuff happens…

I will put up, when ready, links to both the full file with the fixed audio tracks for those who prefer that as well as just the separate audio tracks for those who prefer to download way less GB and patch them in with ffmpeg themselves.

Fixed audio files (and full video with fixed audio) has been sent out to everyone (hopefully). PM me if you didn’t get any links.

I also found out how to fix the inserted frames going pink issue.

Thanks very much for the audio fix, Lizard. Will the above be a fix in a future release?

Thanks

yes

HD version sent out

but thanks as always for your work MonkeyLizard!

Just curious, what’s your next steps for this?

the 4k 1.85 version with the pink little missing scene insert bits also fixed (as already are in the 1080P standard gamut color version links above, it’s all set, just the rendering out of the video file bogs down machine totally for a few straight days so have to pick the right time), probably will have a few more tweaks, maybe to brachiosaurus scene to make the whole re-render out more worth it

open matte (for now the same as 1.85 ratio Beta 4, just open matte, but also without the reel 1 green emulsion line fix that the 1.85 already has done for that)

side by side verifying color grading for the rest of the reels (so far done for most of reel 1, up until the helicopter lands on the island has been color verified; generally it should be mostly fine for the rest but some scenes might have proved tricky for the overall calibration designed for this and need some tweaks; the overall base calibration did use scenes from other reels already when it was getting made so it has been compared to some bits later on already though actually too) and then doing any scene by scene global tweaks as needed

vertical green lines removed from remaining scenes (or maybe some most key ones first and then the rest later)

maybe patching in the few little blips of missing frames from a better scan source

eventually maybe handling a few tricky scenes where parts of scene need one calibration tweak and other parts of frame a different (or alternative option possibly)

some bits of the most egregious blobs of dirt manually cleaned up

also somewhere in the above mix get the trailers that were a side part of this project processed up and finished, will mix in some of that somewhere along the above stuff

but need to get base version of AOTC project out

so the first step above, or maybe first AOTC work even before that, and then a mix of AOTC work and rendering out the intermediate open matte JP frames when computer is not being used for that

the other things below after first base version of AOTC is out
