This sounds amazing, I can’t wait for the fixed release! Hopefully things can be worked out with the myspleen admins so it can be accessed from there as well as usenet.

What’s the issue with MySpleen?

negativ- I mean rogue1 is being a bitch and flagging all further uploads of the SSE.

And he’s allowed to get away with this… Why? I mean seriously what a whiny little bitch. “Waaaah they banned me because I was a tool, now nobody gets to see it.” That’s even douchier than George Lucas not letting us see the originals in the first place.

Ironic, ain’t it?

So hella ironic

You can recreate the missing frames by animation or so, but this is not the DeEd, so good job Will.

Already used Dre’s color correction tool to create v1.5…

I have put the Reel 3 cue marks fix in and removed the emoticon from the TN1 bumper, but I’m still trying to sync the subtitles. I understand the basic problem - the subtitles are timed for 23.976 fps but the authoring software is using a 24 fps clock, so they drift out of sync. I have tried converting the subtitles to 24 fps and importing them as Drop and non-drop but so far I haven’t found the right combination of actions to correct the problem. It is compounded by the 90 minute turn around time on every change.

I’ll figure it out eventually, but it’s a pain in the arse to be sure. By far the biggest issue with v1.5 is the subtitle sync, so there is no point pushing it out again until that is corrected.

Will an MKV of v1.5 (non-branching '77 crawl, of course) be in order, since the subtitle sync in the BD structure is the only issue with the release?

Making an MKV from the BD is straightforward. You can use mkvtoolnix-gui or makemkv beta. Both are “drag and drop” operations.

Wahoo! I found the solution to the subtitle problem: Convert the srt from 23.976fps to 24fps in Jubler, then use Lemony to create the BDN. Edit the XML to set the framerate back to 23.976 and import as non-drop. Then subs remain in sync to the end. Rinse and repeat for all languages. We’re back in business people!

Throw it in a pot, add some broth, a potato… baby you got a stew going!

Yes, that’s fine, but I’d like to focus on my acting Mr. Weathers. I did give you my last $1,100…

I have no doubt as to the simplicity of the operation. I was just curious if an official MKV was to be released, because I’m sure that many people alongside myself would end up putting it in an MKV anyway, for muxing different audio tracks, etc. I just thought I’d ask if it was in the plans. 😄

Fantastic! Does it mean that those of us who didn’t download the previous version yet can wait a few days for the fixed version?

yep, that’s exactly what it means.

Nope, this will be it for official releases. We’ll give you the highest quality, most fully featured version we can, but it’s up to you guys to create a BD 25, an mkv, a DVD9, a DVD5, an mp4 or even that VCD version you’ve been secretly wanting. Creating the blu-ray was a lot of work - seriously - weeks and weeks, but as RU.08 points out, generating other formats from that is really quite straightforward.

A note for those who will actually be re-encoding the video: gme4 pointed out earlier in the thread that the black bars actually have a little blue in them (0,0,13) from about 31 seconds in. Unfortunately, I had already completed the 2 day re-encode required to correct the reel change cue marks at the end of the 3rd reel when this was pointed out, so it did not get fixed. However, if you are re-encoding anyway, you can fix it by simply cropping out the old (not quite) black bars and adding new ones if you need them…

Nevermind, there was an ugly visual glitch that requires a full re-encode, so I’ll fix this too at the same time.

OK, I guess I will be able to make an MKV out of it and mux around a little bit… but is it also that easy to make an BD out of it again afterwards? I only created BD 25s with tsmuxer until now and am afraid that there will be need for hokus pokus like splitting up the file because of the two layers of a BD 50… 😕
