You know when I saw the title of the thread was self-reflection, I thought this would be a thread about self-reflection. Then the first post started off with “I hate some of you…”

I don’t think Jetrell understands the meaning of self-reflection.

This type of response is not allowed by the rules of my thread. You might want to read them before posting again, per site rules, thank you.

I can’t help but feel a little guilty whenever I use a pretense of self-reflection in a passive-aggressive manner in order to hurl veiled criticism towards someone I don’t like.

This is sarcasm towards the post above it, right? LOL

Hi there. This place has NO search so I am giving up on scrolling through hundreds of threads to only run into non responsive folks. I like what you do, and I know you might be able to help me or through me to the proper people to help me on my way. I am trying to accomplish the following and I need to know what are the best programs and where can I find the proper tutorials to learn what I need to know. Maybe there are some hisson in this place I just had not dug into. Your help on the matter would be much appriciated because once I know these skills I will also be of a great artistic help here in authoring, menus, artwork etc. :::

  1. For a Mac user what is the best Blu Ray and Dvd authoring program out there? I cannot seem to find one on a torrent or a download. And the ones it seems Criterion, vinegar Syndrome and the like use are REALLY expensive and hard to locate. Any software you can recommend that allows for scripting and creative freedom on making cool menus.

  2. I need to learn how to extract the audio and video files in a store baought blu ray disk. For instance, I want to undo the Neil Young Archives Vol 1 set, grab all of the video goodies and make a disk or two of JUST that material.

  3. I cannot seem to be able to use Tsmux to make an MKV into a BDAV or whatever it is called so that I can burn and watch it on my player. Last time I tried this I made a 3 dollar Indiana Jones 35MM print disk, with no audio. 😦

So, to sum up, I want to learn these skills so that I can author my own disks for the community. I just keep running into road blocks. Im running 10.11.11 El Capitan

PS, your work is STUPENDOUS please keep uploading it at My Spleen! 😉

Though this isn’t the proper thread for this question I’d say you might want to give this a try.

Good luck with your project.

Well I finished syncing the Japanese HD footage to the Simitar DVD late last night, or early this morning, and in addition I’ve recreated the “Henry G. Saperstein Presents” and UPA logo cards at the beginning of the film. I’ve also set up the backgrounds for the recreated opening credits.

What’s left to do, then:

  • Recreate the opening credits
  • Deal with the other US version visuals (location cards, newspaper headlines, “The End”) either through masking, recreating or just substituting the SD shots
  • Add the Classic Media audio since the Simitar audio has this weird volume inconsistency where most of the film is quiet, then the second-to-last reel is a lot louder, then the last reel is a little quieter and also skewed to one side for some reason
  • Add grain to the whole thing, render, test, upload

Also I’m pleased to announce that Video Collector will once again be preparing Blu-ray art for this project. He hasn’t sent me anything yet, but as always I’m excited to see what he comes up with.

Very exciting on all fronts. 😃

I’m really stressing out over something that I shouldn’t be stressing out over. I’m taking a ton of AP classes this year (and last year) which is difficult but challenging in a fun way…usually. Last year I got a 4.0. This year I have all A’s except one class. I have worked my ass off and I’m gonna be probably ending up with a B+. I know this shouldn’t mean anything since most people I know would love to have even a B in some of their classes. I’m just very worked up over this sort of shit and my parents expect a lot out of me. The most relieving thing is when I remind myself that it literally doesn’t mean shit that I’m getting a B+ in a class. All my friends are nice and try to get a good laugh out of how stressed I always am about my grades. But in a way, now I’m kind of happy that I’m losing the 4.0. A 3.95 GPA with less worrying about perfection sounds a helluva lot better.

I apologize for ranting about a god damn B+. I’m surprised I didn’t delete this post because of how much of an idiot I sound like. I just really don’t want to have people not think I’m smart just because I got one B+.

I am very appreciative of your honest post. ALL of us here are human and humans are not perfect. When we admit our flaws and work to better ourselves, those flaws become a positive part of the process.

Thank you for not deleting it and sharing with us. It means alot.

It is for anyone to share their own personal insight about themselves on any given day. Kind of “how you see yourself in the world through your eyes” kinda thing. I thought it might help some of us get to know each other a bit better. If we understand how each other thinks we might not have to feel we need to be so judgemental about the way someone speaks ya know.

Your first try is darn funny. Thanks for the humor.

Days like these I feel I could rip my hair out. I try sincerely to do the right thing only to be told it is the wrong thing. How does one continue to keep faith against such odds? It’s not easy nor is it simple. It does wear on one though. Little by little. Some time it takes everything I think I have to calm the storm I feel rising within me.

I will not let it get the better of me.

As I was reading through some threads I saw some unnecessary things said towards others. I had thought about hitting the report button and/or posting in the thread about doing that but I realized the better way to handle it was to pm the user in question so that they may do it instead. I feel good about the choice but I feel bad that I didn’t verbally stand up for them.

A Catch-22 if there ever was one for me.
