MPV, perhaps?

An auto white balance filter would do wonders for Toei anime.

You read my mind. I still can’t wait to see the possibilities for this algorithm/tool applied to Dragon Ball.

Dragon Ball was in fact one of the series I meant (green cast). The other was Sailor Moon (red cast).

An auto white balance filter would do wonders for Toei anime.

What is most interesting to me is the odds that they could be used to color correct the Dragon Box.

That, and the M&E tracks.

I’m guessing it has to do with variable bitrate audio, but don’t quote me.

Some years ago I released laserdisc rips of the two shorts that weren’t on DVD, but they were done on shoddy equipment.

I actually know someone else who had a similar posting style, but used longer lines.

“Hi-Vision” is just what HD is called in Japan. (both MUSE-style and the current digital type)

…and some people here prolly think I encode too small. XD

As an encoder, I can empathize.

I use tuned x264 settings which produce markedly smaller files than just slapping a file into Handbrake on default. A lot of the files I see which are too large for their content are still bitrate starved because the default settings are hideously inefficient.

I think I’ve seen them around myspleen recently… 2 and 3 anyway

ETA: the restoration of the extended version of 2 is infamous enough it might be on one of the big torrent search sites (TPB? KAT?) too?

I saw Titanic through a copy of a screener too.

You said it. 😕

I go through hard drive space like you wouldn’t believe, and I don’t even deal in ProRes (much).

What I’ve found annoying was this, if you may permit this OT diversion while the subject’s up.

I have this DVD - friend bought me it to rip because where he lives he would have gotten slammed hard by customs. It’s anamorphic. Contains two Detective Conan specials, made from re-cutting older 3-part episodes and adding new credits. Everything but the closing credits is 4:3 footage, from back when the show was cel-animated. The credits, including the closing animation, were done in 2007; the closing animation is CG and 16:9 AR.

…so the damn fools made the disc anamorphic and pillarboxed the 4:3 footage like the TV airing! My equipment won’t let me do anything reasonable about that, either; if I zoom in enough with the player to take the whole screen, I’ve already zoomed in WAY too much.

On the plus side, one of the specials reaired recently, so I have it now in 720p thanks to same said friend. 😉

The torrent I released some time ago on Nyaa was a simple laserdisc capture.

I’d like to see if a 35 print might show up in Japan. There’s been rumors, but nothing concrete.

I see what you did there.

This is right up there with “Luke threw twice” >_>

People’s memories are faulty…

BTW, although I don’t really want to shell out for it, the local heebie-cheapie theater was running TFA as of a few days ago.

I also don’t have remotely the financial means, but Disney classics are my childhood, and preserving them properly is IMO a must.

I’m prolly one of the youngest people around to have had the opportunity to see Song of the South in cinema (at a drive-in, as a double-feature following Snow White, in 1987).

Maybe there’s a soundalike who could dub it? 😉

…Even Luke is a mary sue…

The spelling “Dark Vador” suggests a native language of French (where he was, indeed, called that).

gets shot

Vinegar syndrome…ouch.

So if I understand, it’s starting to decay but it’s still in good enough shape to scan reliably?

Same.

o.O;

I just had to put my eyes back in their sockets.
