Info: December 9th - Holiday Special broadcast in Canada, on Zed
Time
Yes there is another version now called The Angrysun “Unauthorized Collection”- The Original "Angrysun Version" is also one of my very first releases and I did the best I could with what I had considering that it was the only Holiday Special VHS I've ever seen. I think it works asthe VHS tape was mastered from an EVEN older VHS from 1978 - this was recorded before most of the forums members were born

- I do have a much better version now and have include pictures and infor in another Thread

Fan Film collection ~ TREMORS IN THE FORCE
Time
Hey there guys!

I'm baggin' on my Tremors 3 Project....

I have started to DL all the fan films again and I will creating an all NEW Tremors Collection with some of the better sources of old films that have become available over this last year - and I will be using a better encoder this time around (the sound drifts on some films - I'll be using the Canopus ProCoder with 2nd pass VBR, unless anyone can suggest a better encoder ).

I'll most likely start the authoring of the set in February but will keep you all posted here in this thread - IF any of you have better sources (originals,SWF to mpeg captures or old VHS tapes ~ Dark Redemption had a real VHS release) and wanna help out, please email me and we'll see if we can work something out. (contributors will also get copies on DVD once the set[s] are done)

If you have links to films (other then theforce.net or Ifilms), suggestions or have found new films please share those links here in this thread.


UPDATES to come...

the brightness is a lot better than on the DVD Rikter sent. And the color is much more vibrant and looks just like the official TPM DVD. (No offense or hurt intended, it's just I think he has better burning equipment)

That's it... THE PREQUELS ARE AWESOME NOW!



That's odd - DVD burners make no difference in the resulting video as all they do is burn digital data like this (01100010 01101100 01100001 01101011 01110011 01110110 01101110 00100000 01001111 01010111 01001110 01010011 00100000 01111001 01101111 01110101 01110010 00100000 01100001 01110011 01110011 01100101 01110011 00100000) - SO I'm not sure how it could look better as the AdigitalMan version was based on the original MagFan DVD.
