Finally got these as there were some corruption issues...here is a link I found some might find helpful for this.

TsMuxer gave me this....

SmartLabs tsMuxeR. Version 1.10.6

Decoding DTS-HD stream (track 1): Bitrate: 1536Kbps core + MLP data.Sample Rate: 48KHz Channels: 5.1 (DTS Master Audio)

DTS-HD stream (track 1): bad frame detected at position02:06:36,373. Resync stream.

Demux complete.

Demuxing time: 1 min 39 sec

Any idea what the "bad frame" thing is about?

Here is some extra info for:

This software is designed to convert audio files between different formats using FFMPEG. It's in a beta stage... the possibilities of format convertions will be added "along the path". At this point you can convert (and resample) between MP3, AC3, MP2,WAV, WMA and AAC formats.

What about if I just want to to do this on my HD so I can watch it from there?  Will I still have to convert the video to 23.976fps to synch up the audio with it? 

As long as the lengths and framerates of the audio and video match, you should be good to go.  You will likely want to use a container format, like MKV, to contain the streams, rather than trying to mux to a single MPEG2 muliplexed stream.

I will try this first I think.  I know my PC will play the MKV as will my BD player....my Surround Receiver also supports DTS.

Okay, since I don't have a Bluray drive on my pc, could I use my Japan Superbit DVD to sync up this audio and how would I do it properly?  I really want to give this DTS soundtrack a spin.

 

It would require some work, but you'd be able to do it.  You wouldn't be left with a Superbit quality video, though.  You'd have to do somewhat of an inverse telecine, get that framerate down to 23.976fps, then you'd have to make cuts to the audio or video to make sure they're the same length.  Your final project would have to be output as an HD compliant stream to utilize the DTS-HD MA track, as DVD spec doesn't allow for DTS-HD MA.

Alternatively, you could extract the core DTS track from the DTS-HD MA file and use that to create a DVD version with the original theatrical mix.

Another alternative to creating a DVD version retaining the video quality of the Superbit DVD would be to: 1) extract the core DTS track, 2) use eac3to to convert the audio framerate from 23.976 to 29.976, 3) make edits to the audio track to match the video, 4) multiplex the audio track with the Superbit video track.

I'd personally love to see all 3 DTS mixes if we can get them.....it would be awesome for those of us who still enjoy the SE as a standalone version of the Trilogy.  The 5.1 mix is rather nice for sure but this would put the icing on the cake for purist and edit versions of the SE.

Here's to hoping we get them all.

:) 

Nicely done you two.  This may well give way to more fine theater audio presentation archives/restoration projects and in my opinion that is an awesome thing. 

I agree that it is a shame Universal did not do this for Jurassic Park...whether you like the movie or not, as a whole, it is a historical piece of film-making that deserves the same care that the OT should have received.

With all this now happening it may be just the kick I need to pick up a Bluray drive and some discs so I can experience these in the highest quality possible.

Cheers 

So here's a question....as I was looking @ Laserdiscs with DTS soundtracks it seemed that they were mostly CLV sets.  Will the DTS audio sync with a CAV set without editing the speed of one or the other?

Since "The Lost World" has a DTS soundtrack as well I bet you that would sound awesome too.

Am I mistaken about DTS being able to be analog and/or digital?  I was trying to read about it a little but there are so many types of DTS and a lot of opinions on it's quality.

I found a copy of the theatrical 6-track DTS CD's, and using a very old plugin for a very old version of winamp, I was able to extract the the 5 channel stems forthe movie.  It is 5 channels because theatrical DTS had it's LFE data stored in the surrounds, and DTS processors sent anything below 80hz in the surrounds to the sub.  

What we have here then is exactly what you heard in a DTS cinema.  And it is glorious.

I'll let ElDonate chime in about the process he took to create these tracks, but in the meantime, PM me if you're interested in getting the track.  We encoded it into DTS-HD MA for syncing with the Blu-ray.  ElDonate, thank you very much for taking the time to do this! 

I can only host it for about a week, so if you want it, let me know soon.  Hopefully after that, someone else can host or up a torrent.

You have a pm........

I wasn't even aware one could get a hold of such DTS CD-rom's....it can't be easy, right?  And I'd bet it's expensive....is there a site that talks about these types of discs?

Most DVD releases have been fine. Have you tried the Criterion Blu-ray for the original 1954 Godzilla?

I'm getting ready too.  I also read that the Japan Bluray releases had a hold put on them for now and that the HD Broadcasts of some of these movies were nicer looking.  I haven't come across any HD rips to check out yet but I'm gonna try.

If anyone else is looking for the Rowman Bonus artwork gems, this should help you out......enjoy!!!! 

It's all 4 covers and all 4 disc labels.  These do take me back, LOL.

I have recently gone through my archives and pulled out plenty of artwork that I've come across on the net and my "Laserman" disc I've got so if anyone is looking for something drop me a pm, I just thought I'd let folks know.

I quickly needed a trilogy cover for a single-sized triple-case, and some labels, so I threw something together in a matter of hours. The cover-artwork itself borrows from Falle's trilogy-box-cover (sorry for that ) while the "design" of the back is based on a cover by Rikter.


Full size (300 dpi)

For the labels I had to rearrange the posters of TESB and ROTJ to fit around the hole in the label, which took the most time.



Full size labels (300 dpi):
A New Hope
The Empire Strikes Back
Return of the Jedi

I know it's a very old post but if someone still has the disc label for Return of the Jedi, please upload it! It's the only one not available anymore :-)

The disc art is cool.  Who made these?  I've been through all the SW cover art I've acquired through the ages and these aren't in there.

Maybe someone will have them....

Back to the basics...

This is sharp COOV......

I'm surprised there aren't any Godzilla related restorations or archives going on....figured there would be at least 1 or 2...... 

Alien appendix 1a - Evolution (NTSC)
Alien appendix 2 - Redux DL (anamorphic NTSC)

Are the above still available somewhere?  Aside from the Quadrilogy and the Alien Saga DVD I have, these would make for a nice addition to my collection while awaiting the release of Prometheus.  I'm going to seek out the Alien Legacy Documentary as well....sounds like it would just add to my enjoyment of these awesome movies.

Apparently, me buying the BR set will fix issue one.  So I'm good there.  The 2nd one I will search my archives as I might actually have it.

Sorry for the wasted post.

Cheers!!!!

Molly,

I gots a question about the Deluxe Editions of Aladin, Lion King, Cinderella and the Fantasia.  A pal of mine was looking to transfer these to a DVD (both the movies and the bonus tapes) and was wondering if this has already been done.

I've got the Deluxe Fantasia LD....the only other Deluxe Disney LD I believe I have is the Toy Story box....don't know if it would help any.

Oooops, I lied...I have the Nightmare Before Christmas CAV box and the CAV Letterboxed Edition of Beauty & The Beast.....

I've always enjoyed this movie because of it's ambition and story.  The only version I have in my possession is the 1993 Widescreen Extended Version on LD....the discs being made in Japan for the U.S..  It's got the AC-3 Audio.  The cool thing about this version...it has the "Making Of" feature on it.

Long Live Laserdisc....  :)

I finally got the chance to view this and I have to say....it's damn cool.  Thanks to everyone involved with this.....nicely done.

It is a must have for any collection.  

I know this thread is a bit dated but I was wondering if anyone still had a proper set of these they'd be willing to send out?  It would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

:)

I figured this would be the best place for this.

Anyone here have information to share about this set and maybe an idea on where to start searching for it?  I have a 93 Minute version, The Producer’s Cut.  It’s 1 disc, a Widescreen Collectors Edition, but that’s it.

Any info and/or assistance is greatly appreciated.

Anyone on this forum who says that they don't perform a Jedi hand wave every time they approach an automatic door is lying.

Okay Moth3r, this is funny as hell!!!  LMAO

Duct Tape?

I share your like of the color changes you are working on.  I am glad to see you giving this another go....I still enjoy the Rebellion Collection and am glad I stumbled upon it by accident......Cheers!!!!
