Well, according to what is available on the Spleen, the GOUT synced BD’s of SSE and ESB Grindhouse have all the English tracks you’d expect from the Despecialized edition (plus Portuguese as desired by the uploader), including the DTS-HD MA tracks. Maybe what we should instead be asking is: dear God, HOW did you author these BDs? Also, how many audio and subtitle tracks can this method handle, assuming it has a menu (which it should, if it has selectable crawls)?

I am looking at the correct files… right?

I’m the author of those discs you are talking about and that’s not what we are talking here.

We are talking about the upcoming release by Williarob, that will be BD50 with Menus and seamless branching for the crawls.

Also my discs have no menu, they were made simply with TsMuxer, I have no knowledge how to author a Blu-Ray menu except using pre-made ones like MultiAVCHD made by DeanK.

I believe you need the DTS encoder from Nero package and use EAC3To. I’ve seen many people convert it to FLAC 5.1.
Don’t know what you guys are doing wrong.

Just beware that even the outstanding blu-ray player Oppo doesn’t support 7.1 FLAC. 5.1 is the limit.

Also the problem is just rebuilding the seamless branching not DTS-HD-MA itself. This discussion is pointless.

It MIGHT be possible to do it with BDEdit software.
You would need to mux the M2TS file with the new audio or subtitles using TsMuxer and output as a blu-ray.
After that you need to copy the CLPI file, which can’t be edited by any software as far as I know, and replace the original one.
Later you take the M2TS you muxed and replace the original one.

Now you need to take BDEdit and edit the playlist files, both of them and add the ID for the new track.
Also you need to edit the offset time for the playlist to match what TsMuxer spits out. Or the other way around, you take the offset timing for that playlist and insert in TsMuxer.

I did that for the Saint Seiya blu-rays which have a single playlist for all episodes and the audios and subtitles were split per episode.

Yeah, I’m seriously down for a copy as well, give us a heads up when you know it will be available. Thanks for everything.

Oh, if it is GOUT synced, will the BD include the hairy_hen DTS-HD MA 5.1 track?

Even if it doesn’t, you could easily mux it using tsmuxer and DED.

He said it will be using seamless branching, so there’s no way to insert any audio or subtitle and keep the branching.

When using TsMuxer you will have to choose the playslist you want.

That’s why I’m hopping for all audios and all subtitles with the release, or else it’s not possible to rebuild the blu-ray back with the menus and the branching.

Thanks for sharing. But I am a noob with this muxing stuff so I was hoping for an easily modifiable MKV to add German dubbing and subtitles to the silver screen edition. So I am not sure this iso will help me reach that goal. Or can I make an GOUT synced MKV out of it?

If you extract the contents from the iso file (winrar will do it), and demux the 0000.m2ts file (tsmuxer will do it) from the STREAM folder you will end up with the already synced video stream.
All you have to do is remux it back again with the audios and subtitles you want, also, tsmuxer will do it.

Maybe you will need MKVMerge to end up with a Matroska container since tsmuxer can mux only BD, M2TS and TS.

Is there a way to get a GOUT synced 1080p version of this? I got the 720p reencode from the spleen but would like to have the higher resolution.

I did the syncing and made a BD25 version with all the english audios and english subtitles. Also I´ve added PT-BR sub and dub.
I’m considering where to upload it. Myspleen would need that I seed it forever. Mega would delete it in a day.
So usenet seems to be the best bet but I’m not familiar with uploading to it, only downloading.

Spleen has plenty of ppl willing to seed i think, it would not be on you to seed forever.

Ok, that’s an option. I’ll check where to upload when I get home during the weekend.

The GOUT Sync Thread

It was weird. I got all my Avisynth plugins from an outdated zip file that someone made.

So, I’ve updated the FFMS2 to the latest 2.22 version and I got a green upside down preview.
It was solved using the function to call just the video from the container.

I was hopping, initially, to use the AVC call command that I’ve used with ANH Silver Screen, but the AVC indexer software for the h.264 stream crashed all the time. I guess it’s not familiar with 4:2:2.

After having success with ANH from Negative One team and syncing it now I’m trying to sync ESB.
The problem is ConvertToYV12 which isn’t working properly.

While checking the video preview in MeGui the video is basically black and white.

I’m with Avisynth 2.6 which should support this.

Any ideas?

EDIT>
After a few hours reading and testing this solved my problem:

Loadplugin(“C:\Program Files (x86)\Haali\MatroskaSplitter\avss.dll”)
Loadplugin(“C:\Program Files (x86)\AviSynth\plugins\ffms2.dll”)
ESB=ffvideosource(“02-ESB_Grindhouse_1080p_BD25.mkv”)
.ConvertToYV12()#.ShowFrameNumber(scroll=true)

ESB2=
Trim(ESB, 0,3096).Loop(12,0,0) ++
ESB.Loop(6,30727,30727).Trim(3096, 35385) ++
ESB.Loop(3,35381,35381).Trim(35381, 59546) ++

ESB.Loop(11,150134,150134).Trim(150134, 0)

return ESB2

The GOUT Sync Thread

Could you guys give me a hand here?

I’ve installed Avisynth. Installed AVSP, which is the GUI for AVIsynth and I get tons of syntax problems with the scripts.
I’m trying to sync the video from the silver screen to GOUT.

I’ve tried creating an .avs file with the script in it and running it in windows media player like the AVIsynth wiki recommends but I also get tons of syntax errors.

Could someone tell me how do I apply the script to make my .h264 demuxed file to be saved with the script modifications?

EDIT:
It seems I’ve figured it out.
You need the following for it to work:
AviSynth
dgavcdec109
DGAVCDecode.dll plugin for avisynth
MeGui

The script in the end is this one:
loadplugin(“C:\Program Files (x86)\AviSynth\plugins\DGAVCDecode.dll”)
sw=AVCSource(“video.dga”).assumefps(“ntsc_film”).trim(1005,0)
blank=sw.blankclip()
swp1=sw.trim(0,42592) ++ blank.trim(0,11)#obi-wan reaches down to grab luke’s arm while he’s unconscious
swp2=sw.trim(42593,45140) ++ blank.trim(0,3)#luke and obi-wan sit on rocks by speeder while luke points at r2
swp3=sw.trim(45141,55729) ++ blank.trim(0,4)#cut from tarkin to r2/3po in front of sandcrawler----first frame of r2 is a duplicate(trimmed out) / end of reel?
swp4=sw.trim(55731,56064) ++ blank.trim(0,-1)#obi-wan / “that is what we are meant to believe”—first frame missing
swp5=sw.trim(56065,56904) ++ blank.trim(0,-1)#no luke, wait! / luke runs to speeder to go see owen and beru
swp6=sw.trim(56905,58453) ++ blank.trim(0,3)#tie fighters approach death star/cut to vader approaching leia’s cell
swp7=sw.trim(58454,60732) ++ blank.trim(0,-1)#standing at edge of cliff above mos eisley/cut to scene of mos eisley

swp9=sw.trim(64837,70477) ++ blank.trim(0,1)#Han and Chewie stand up / Luke and obi-wan walk away from cantina
swp10=sw.trim(70478,78633) ++ blank.trim(0,-1)#Tarkin dismisses officer / Leia led down corridor by guards
swp11=sw.trim(78634,83416) ++ blank.trim(0,3)# Chewie with hands behind head / 3po looks at r2 and suggests a new strategy
swp12=sw.trim(83417,86622) ++ blank.trim(0,57)#That’s good. You’ve taken your first steps into a larger world. / doors open, officer enters in to deliver message to tarkin / End of reel
swp13=sw.trim(86623,113556) ++ blank.trim(0,5)#Dianoga releases Luke / Leia stares / End of reel
swp14=sw.trim(113557,143951) ++ blank.trim(0,4)#man in hangar waves droid into x-wing / overhead shot of x-wing in hangar / End of reel
swp15=sw.trim(143952,0) ++ blank.trim(0,5)
final=swp1 ++ swp2 ++ swp3 ++ swp4 ++ swp5 ++ swp6 ++ swp7 ++ swp8 ++ swp9 ++ swp10 ++ swp11 ++ swp12 ++ swp13 ++ swp14 ++ swp15
return(final)

Where video.dga is my video.h264 that where index by dgavcdec.

Open script in megui and adjust x264 settings:
I’m using CRF 16, very slow preset and default target device without min or max bitrate.

It will finish the encoding in 6 hours with my i5 4670k

EDIT:

I ended up without the first seconds of the movie.
What part of the script is removing it?
I’ve read somewhere that this was the case to remove the negative1 credits.

Which part is it?

EDIT:
Founded it

It’s this part: .trim(1005,0) <— this has to be removed.

I agree althor’s is excellent:

It’s not yet in a.b.starwars to my knowledge.
Over the years althor has been prolific usenet poster; that’s main reason
why I haven’t taken upon myself to upload it. I’d be happy to do
especially if the former member, the one who left <LOL>, would pull strings
to have it deleted from 'spleen

That’s exactly what I was looking for, except the re-encode 😦

He did all the hard work, do you think a version without re-encoding could be uploaded?
This would be make a fine BD25 with all the audios and subtitles easily inserted from Harmy’s despecialized edition.

Theatrical edition: which one should I watch?
Time

I think this have been asked a thousand times but, please, consider this thread as my first time and introduction post.

 

Last night I've watched The People vs George Lucas and I got really interested in watching the theatrical editions.

Since I'm 25 years old the versions I saw on theater were the 1997 special ones. 

After some  googling I found this site and I have faced myself with tons of editions and restorations from the theatrical ones. 

I've got myself the ones I could find on usenet but I'm not sure which one should I start watching. 

 

Which do you recommend for the first time watching the theatrical edition?
