Here is a question....would it be possible to sync the SE DTS stuff to the 2004 SE DVD's without issue?

Here is to hoping an ESB DTS CD-rom comes out of hiding....  :)

If this would pop up in, let's say, myspleen I'd greatly appreciate it.

Would myspleen accept this as a torrent if someone were to do one?

The tech papers I have read also state it's a fixed compression of 4:1, whatever that means.

All I know is: Jurassic Park sounds PHENOMENAL!

I can personally attest to this, thanks again.

I have the Epsiode III discs, but they are not able to be ripped.

Too bad this couldn't be figured out.  I bet it would make a great alternative for folks who just enjoy movies and the experience that comes with it.  Having the SE DTS CD-roms audio would be a just as welcome a treat. 

I'd love to see them synched to the HD Broadcasts of the S.E. ..... it would be a perfect addition for all fans.

I was just watching these again today....I LOVE the SW THX bumper....always cool to see.  Besides, these age far better than VHS does and it's great to have the nostalgia feel of these transfers.  I always get a little giddy when I watch them on my RCA Projection TV. 

Ahhhhh, the memories..... 

okay, borisanddoris and ElDonante....I have a question....

"If" a torrent showed up somewhere offering this AV treat would you be okay with it and with being mentioned as the architects of this great endeavor?

If you two would be okay with "If" issue, would there be a way to get at least basic technical data on what it is and how it was done to be included?

Feel free to drop me a note if you'd like.  I think if something like this could happen it would make it far easier so others could check it out for themselves.

Cheers!!!!

Not a problem. Thanks, Jetrell!

Well now....with all the limitations on size from these free hosting sites I think I'm just going to do a share someplace else...I will keep you posted.

Hey gang. Would someone be so kind as to share this audio file so I can marry it to my blu ray video? Thanks!

Give me the day to rar it up as I have a few things going on and I'll get it up for folks.....

Cheers

Just burned this and had a quick listen  - fantastic!

Since I don't have a Blu-ray burner (just yet) I used a 720p rip and burned it to a DL DVD - luckily there were no problems marrying the video and audio files, but I had to drop the original DTS track to make room (a bit of a shame, since it would have been fun to do some A/B comparisons).

My kit isn't fancy at all, indeed my receiver (Yamaha RX-V365) isn't HD capable (despite the presence of HDMI). I'll upgrade one day, but for now the core DTS is impressive enough - a genuinely cinematic sound with tremendous atmosphere and punch.

Thanks to all involved - let's hope to see more projects like this (and if anyone in this discussion has any ideas on extracting the 5.1 AC-3 from the THX Alien laserdisc, please weigh in on the other thread!)

What I did was made 2 separate versions...using MKV as the container.  This made it easier to compare the 2.  BOTH are awesome.  I would like to think that "anyone" here that has some of these theater DTS CD-roms would now consider sharing them for other movies so folks have an alternative to the soundtracks already available.

This IS the way I like to watch this movie now.....

Ok, these are the new and improved covers, with disk art that doesn't have a template over it. I fixed grammar, and hopefully any issues with color, though my monitor isn't the best judge. The box is being postponed.

{NOTICE: This preview was made before errors were brought to my attention, but it is pretty much what you get}

As I stated before, if you have any problems with the link, give a shout.

ESF, any chance you'd re-upload these?  I'll archive them with the rest of the ones I've got in case anyone else needs them.

Thanks

I only have 2 of the U.S. HiT DVD releases...Where It All Began and Dance Your Cares Away.  Each has 2 regular episodes and 1 bonus episode, 6 total.  I'm glad to see someone is doing all this to help keep "The Fraggles" alive and well.

Cheers!!!!

I have the MGM 1990 VHS, Not Rated, version of "the Ewok adventure". 1 hour & 36 minute run time if it helps anyone with this. 

Could be great to have on DVD :-)

What I have is fullscreen but I'm watching it right now and it's pretty clean for it's age.  It also has a film look, natural colors....I could fire up my DVDrecorder and make a disc.  My upload speed sucks so I'd be willing to send someone a copy for upload, tweaks, what not....  

Well if it's really "The Ewok Adventure" and not "Caravan of Courage", that would be a great thing to have. Well you can anytime send it to e.g. some person who has done some Ewoks DVD sets :-)

Yes, it really is "The Ewok Adventure", not "Caravan of Courage"......  :)

I do ;)

Plus I have the CAV, CLV, and DTS versions to work with, though there aren't many differences besides some text and logos here and there.

No days off till next Sunday, though, so unless I find the will, there won't be a way until them :(

If anyone else wants to do it, that's cool too... cause not only will I need the time, I'll also have to hope I'm in creativity mode at the same time in order to do it.

El, I have the R2 DVD Superbit ones, they are mostly white and would allow for some custom art to be added.  I would gladly scan and offer them to whomever might want to take this task on...I don't know that I'm well versed enough to come up with something unique.  

Since I don't have a huge amount of experience myself I just wanted to post a note for those looking to make MKV's......

I went with a 720p AVCHD version of Bluray for home viewing....

http://www.noblemd.info/index.php?option=com_content&view=article&id=12&Itemid=13

I set the format of the 720p to 23.976 and I set the audio delay @ -140ms...this was of course for the DTSHD track.  I also set the language to English and set the flag to yes.  Let's MKverge run without error codes regarding this.  

I extracted the core DTS and I'm going to make an MKV using the exact same settings.  I hope this helps any of the amateurs out there such as myself.

Thanks to NeonBible for some suggestions....thanks to borisanddoris and ElDonante for the the source, the work and the share.

I am REALLY hoping that this project sparks "others" who may have these types of DTS cdroms to share so that we can have other movies to enjoy with such brilliant soundtracks.  I am loving Jurassic Park even more with this option....even the core DTS is a huge improvement over the R1/R2 DVD's AND the Bluray.

**Update** ....I finished the 720p AVCHD with the core DTS track....it runs smoothly as well.  I used the same settings in MKverge as I used for the DTSHD track. 

:)   :)

Did I mention that Lee's transfers were cool too....

Lee is a very nice person too....

Agreed 100%.

I haven't watched Lee's coffret set in a while because of Harmy's despecialized versions but i remember them looking very good on a 46 inch screen, i would recommend them. 

Thanks guys! It's very kind of you to say! :)

 

I speak only of what I know sir................so, not a problem.

Very cool read....loved it.

Rebelscum said:

So what is the verdict on these Coffret laserdisc transfers? Are they better or worse than Moth3r's PAL effort? What are the differences?

Any feedback appreciated ;) 

Watching them or any other transfer is the best way to tell if YOU are going to like it.  I have Lee's V1 & V2....I am glad to have them..they are worth the download.

Lee is a very nice person too....I'm proud to support his & any other person's transfers here....the only thing that's just as nice is owning the LD's that are being transferred and having a way to watch them.  I don't have all the different versions on LD but the ones I do have are helpful when it comes to relating to the process and outcome.

:)

borisanddoris said:

I'm hoping those that PM'd me have had success getting the track to work.  I'd love to hear some feedback.  Perhaps you can even note what sort of gear you're listening on.  

I'm listening on a Pioneer THX receiver, Klipsch speakers, and a JBL sub.  I made an AVCHD that runs off a USB hard drive connected to my Blu-ray player and have had it on virtual repeat this week.  I can't stop checking it out when I get bored with Netflix. :)

I suppose I'm making up for lost time eh?

I am simply amazed at the difference.  Hearing the dinosaurs alone with this is enough to get one spooked.  I've been hearing things all through this mix that make the movie far more intense than it ever was on DVD.  At the opening of the movie, when the group goes on the tour and the jeeps pass through the gate of the park...hearing the individual noises that accompany the metal gate lock, the other dinosaurs out in the park while the scenes are progressing, the T-Rex.....just awesome.

I'm listening on a Sony 5.1  ST-DG510 with OEM Sony speaker setup.  My personal opinion is that this mix blows all the others away.  It makes me far more excited for the prospect that those who own some of the SE DTS rom discs will allow a straight transfer for the fans like this one.....it really would do the SE some final justice....even if only as a piece of history that at least sounded fricking awesome, if nothing else.   

^^^^^^that 16mm preview of Ghostbusters is so cool.  Thanks for sharing.

:)

Okay....I've previewed this a bit and let me just say from what I've heard so far.....WOW....the DTS-HD audio freaking rocks.

:) 

I saw that TPM had a DTS 6 track mix as well but it wasn't included on the DVD due to budget.....and I can't say whether the BR of TPM is the same as the theater version but I'm guessing it isn't because GL edited the movie for the DVD release so a theatrical version wouldn't match up properly.
