Well, it's true that it kind of sucks having to go through these obscure ways to download something as small and simple as subtitles.

i agree . i'm creating/translating subtitles myself , and when i have finished it i do upload it to a simple database (like opensubs) , where everybody can get them without any trouble or signing up anywhere . why go a more difficult way ? i have no idea ...

Well, none of this stuff is easy... So if I can help by getting you a Spleen invite, send me a PM.

thanx , but i'm not so sure if i want to meet the scene there too , if you don't know everything about these kind of scene you're not perfectly welcome , how i learned . and harmy was very helpful to me too :)

Did you read the forum rules first?

Dr.Olds, try to understand that the members of this forum are working very hard to do restoration and preservation work on Star Wars. The purpose of this site isn't to crack and distribute films that are available. Rather than coming here expecting people to give you things and then complaining when it's not easy, try understanding that most of the folks here are working on restoration efforts, not distribution efforts. So be nice, and be patient.

I don't even have Harmy's disk yet, and I'm one of the oldest and most active members of the forum.

Well said, Puggo.

Nice detective work! Let me sit with this info for a hot minute while I work out the outline for something to write. I'm a pretty big punk fan but I've never heard of Smear (unless it's somehow related to Germs guitarist Pat Smear, which I don't think it is)...lemme look into that as well. Thanks for your help here, I think this is the start of something interesting.

How's it going? Any ideas yet?

Sorry if I get this wrong but doesn't all films on VHS, laserdisc or just any format have a cadence like 3:2? Or is it only on DVDs?

Because I know I've seen some IVTC plugins for avisynth which only needs to be set to 3:2 or something and it will remove all unnecessary frames.

This should be the case, but sometimes the cadence changes.

I like the stance Maddox takes on all of this:

I have a different stance on abortion: I'm against abortion, but for killing babies. That way everyone loses, and I win. I'm neither pro choice, nor pro life; I'm pro you-shutting-the-hell-up.

Wow, thanks! Your guide is really helpful!

Here are some helper functions I wrote to assist with your method. I haven't tested 'em yet, as I'm not at home, and I assumed YV12...

function SplitFields(clip c)
{
fields = c.SeparateFields().ScriptClip("Subtitle(string(YDifferenceFromPrevious()))")
return fields.SelectEven().StackVertical(fields.SelectOdd()).ShowFrameNumber()
}

function FindCombing(clip c)
{
combed = c.Overlay(c.BlankClip(color=$FF0000), opacity=0.1).Subtitle("Combing!")
return combed.ConditionalFilter(c, "IsCombedTIVTC", "=", "true").ShowFrameNumber()
}

This really belongs in How-To’s and Technical Discussions, but seeing as it’s relevant to my future Technidisc SWE preservations, I figured that it would be OK to ask here.

Where can I learn how to do Manual IVTC?

I’ve reached out to a few different OT members, but all seem hesitant (or don’t have enough time) to teach me this deep dark art…

I'm sorry if this has been asked before, but I figured that it would be worth asking again.

For the Sean Connery James Bond films (including Never Say Never Again), which LDs have the best PQ and colors? Are any of the subsequent DVD or BD releases better in both respects? If so, which ones?

Thanks!

It's "dark and oversaturated", but it may yield some important clues.

Hey! Did you receive my e-mail? (I figured that it would be better than PMing.)

They seriously need to bring back Sy Snootles and the Max Rebo Band (as puppets, of course).

Episode VII should just be about them.

You've probably mentioned this earlier somewhere, but I figure it'd be OK to ask again...

What color source(s) are you using for this?
