Info Wanted: Episode II on HBO in HD & Alternate Versions
Time
Whoah whoah, going back to that first link...

"A few USC students took the Japanese Laserdisc & made their own edit of the movie, cutting out all scenes featuring Jar-Jar Binks and making many other minor tweaks. It became known as the "Phantom Edit". George Lucas requested to see a copy & then Lucasfilm issued a press release reiterating that it is illegal to copy and/or edit a Lucasfilm property."

Wait I thought what we all were doing was legal. What's this?

DVD's & Premiere (Please help the noob)
Time
Okay, well from the best I know, avisynth helps to make a fake avi file that allows Premiere or any other avi reading program to read video off a ripped vob file, which doesn't lose you quality. And just use premiere's dvd burning function so you don't have to export and lose any more quality (unless you want a dvd menu and are going to use a dvd authoring program).

So you download --like--here's a guide, but don't download anything from the guide, because it's all outdated, just make sure the get the latest from all those it tells you to download, and once you get it working and figure it all out you can start using filters and all that.

Deinterlacing with Avisynth

Do you have huffyuv installed? 2 hours of video saved with huffyuv lossless compression would be roughly about 80GB.

The folks at the Doom9 forums might be able to help you with the Premiere issue.


Oh I feel like an idiot--yeah I have huffyuv I just wasn't using it, 80 gigs is still too big, but thanks for clearing that up for me. I'll head to Doom9 and see what they have to say (maybe I won't deinterlace after all--besides it really hasn't turned out to be why I'm screwing this up, thanks though).

Deinterlacing with Avisynth
Time
Maybe I should mention the Decomb plugin filename is Decomb521.dll--is that a different version? might that be interfering with my results?

I do have the im_avisynth plugin or whatever its called and the cm_avisynth plugin or whatever that one's called. The avs file opens in both windows media player and virtualdub without the problems I'm having in premiere. And I added the # to the last three lines.

----------------------------------------------------------
Add-On to earlier whining about blank screen:
So I have that black screen. I set the clip in "interpret footage" to square pixels, "deinterlace" is checked in the clip's "frame hold" options, and "always deinterlace" is checked in the clip's "field options." I then open the clip in the source moniter and set the zoom to 100% and get an image--the slanted streached lines of interlaced video I assume.
----------------------------------------------------------

Okay so that add-on's probably a tad redundent, but basically I still can't see the deinterlaced...well here:

Is this even an interlaced image? Am I even asking the right questions? Thanks.

Deinterlacing with Avisynth
Time
I'm trying to deinterlace footage in an avs file so I can import it into premiere. I downloaded Decomb521.dll and I'm not sure, but I think I'm not writing the avs file correctly:

LoadPlugin("ABOSLUTE PATH TO MPEG2DEC.DLL\MPEG2DEC.DLL")
MPEG2Source("ABSOLUTE PATH TO THE DVD2AVI PROJECT FILE\PROJECT FILENAME.d2v")
LoadPlugin("ABSOLUTE PATH TO DECOMB.DLL")
Telecide()
Decimate(5)

I'm working off of Ermac's guide here. Anyway I've managed to get the video into Premiere Pro, but I either get a blank screen (which the guide tells me to resize the moniter window until I see the image, which I never do) or I get what really looks like the image, just all split up into horizantal lines I guess. So I figure it's something wrong with the interlacing. If anyone can help that's be great.

Here are the versions I'm using
DGIndex 1.4.6.0
Avisynth: 2.56

<strong><strong>BLADE RUNNER: The Unauthorized OFF-WORLD Box Set</strong></strong> (Released)
Time
What comes in an envelope, scratches, and rolls at 33 rpm?

That's right! I just got the soundtrack to Blade Runner on vinyl! how cool is that? I know how much you must all be coveting this peice of 80s gold I have here. Maybe I'll take pictures of the cover for the dvd-r extras of this set...

The thing of it is that its supposed to be an orchestral adaptation by the New American Orchestra. Is that part of the alternate soundtracks yet? Anyone have the cd or have access to the cd and know what we could do with it?

3. I just got my Pink Floyd WISH YOU WERE HERE CD in the mail today!!!!!!!!



Is it that the dts quadrophonic mix marbles mike was talking about?


No, I bought the regular CD


Allright, wait I just ripped and burned a copy of BR with the DTS version MarblesMike uploaded for me, and once I find out if its synced like the regular CD (I don't have DTS on my computer so I'm gonna have to blindly poke and burn and watch on a console until I get it right on) then could I just send it to you via mail and you could rip the DTS audio off the DVD and toss it onto your edit?

(btw I gave up on the dialogue/sync editing)

VERY few people noticed the issue. It's not as massive as you would expect.

Remember...we're not professionals here and none of us are making money off of this. If you want to bitch, tell your dog.


Well--of course not, nobody here is claiming to be a professional--but as long as somebody notices these sorts of things, we may as well be professional about it. I love coming here because of everybody's overly-sensitive eyes and ears that can bitch and moan about the littlest things and turn out real quality work. I say stay the course!
