So is there an answer to which version is best for the base of the project for each film?
Is this the preferred version for the base for each, please correct me if I am wrong.
ANH-Flunk
ESB-TB
ROTJ-TB
you should be able to use the trim() command to do separate parts if needed.
what are you trying to do?
Also just so everyone knows, Max_Rebo and I have talked about this before, I am NOT trying to steal his thunder, just looking for something to work on until I can finish v3.
Max and I have the same ideas in mind, but I won't do a PAL version, only NTSC.
I have been googling, reading OT threads, and browsing the web and I think I have this right now, is this correct?
We have these versions for each film,
97 SE ANH - GKar,TB, REIVAX, Flunk.
97 SE ESB - GKar, TB.
97 SE ROTJ - GKar, TB.
(to my knowledge all the HD rips are 2004, not 97)
well I have FINALLY got my DVDr's to rip, some of them I actually grabbed with my Blu-ray burner, but all that matters is I have the GKar, TB, and REIVAX ANH all on my hard drive now, before deleting I will definitely burn to Tayo Yudens!
I have PM'd several members here in hopes to get a hold of the ANH Flunk version, someone here HAS to still have it(I hope).
Now I have to figure out where the hell I put the LD DD 5.1 rips.
OK while taking a break on the v3's, I have started hunting down all my copies of the '97 SE broadcast versions, and damnit almost all of my discs are unreadable now, so if anyone has any of these broadcast DVD's still and are still in good working order LOL, please PM me, I have already PM'd some people here to start acquiring these babies again.
looking for the Flunk, GKar, REIVAX, TB of all 3 movies if anyone has them, I already have the LD 5.1 mixes, although I think reivax is SW only.
Thanks
* OK I do not need REIVAX ANH, got that from Spleen a while back.
Russs15 where are you buddy?
It would be nice if someone could re-up all the '97 SE broadcasts, I had them all but it seems the DVD's I have had gone bad, now none of my drives can read them, I keep trying, I would love to make a NTSC version of the '97 and sync the DD 5.1 to them from the LD's.
So if anyone has the other broadcasts and would like to share please PM me.
and as far as subs go, I will just add them back in with the right font.

If you have wavelab then it can measure rms for you I think, but it's probably faster to just try a few different values for dialnorm like e.g. 23 and 19 etc.
Or you could use whatever software that supports replaygain to compare the soundtracks..
..
I don't/didn't know that dts neural upmix proggie, but I'm not opposed to trying new upmixing methods if anyone feels it's warranted, are there people interested in doing a new listening test?
Is the new listening test for the new ESB DD 5.1 that hairy_hen is doing?
How are you doing the upscaling?
All files downloaded from newsgroups - OK
Enough PARs for the file - OK
Image extracted - OK
Brief glance on TotalMedia Theater all works fine, as far as menu navigation, by the way, Love the main menu, very nice.
Hopefully Monday or Tuesday the latest, I will have my BD50's to test it out on the "Fat" and "Slim" models of the PS3 and my Sony BDP-S350, so far it looks very promising.
Thanks Wookiegroomer, and also Thanks for going into detail on it's creation, I really appreciate that very much.
I will keep you posted.
Does anyone have or can get a hold of the German version of the movie Lifeforce? I want this version because it is anamorphic and because it is the only way to see the Theatrical version of this film.
If you can hook a fellow member up please let me know.
Thanks
I had it set to -27 already when testing, the '85 Stereo Remix is just louder\fuller for the lack of a better term then the rest of the mixes, especially in the dialogue, should I just drop it a little more or just leave it? but I am guessing with the way it is now, when jumping from audio to audio, you will definitely notice this baby.
also all my searches are coming up with nothing, what should I google to be able to compare?

Um, maybe?
Sorry man, just responding to your,
"Are screenshots needed?"
screens are always good, especially for people doing this for the first time.
OK now I am more confused, how do you measure RMS? and what did you mean by this?
"Make sure, however, that dynamic range compression is not used for any of the encodes."
if I don't figure this out I guess I could just leave it as is and people can just raise and lower the volume on their receivers.
Tech question for you h_h, how can you make all the different PCM files have the same audio level? because some are very low and you have to crank up your receiver to hear them, while others, like the '85 Stereo remix is just blasting away, I want to make these so it is not so jarring when jumping from audio to audio.
Thanks

GOUT spliced into it and it also has some framerate issues.
not very good for 8GB's
Hey Dr. M were you gonna add some screens to this baby?
Great to hear h_h, so is it still a ways off then? if so I will just stop everything for a while and take a break from ALL.
There is also a "Leia gets laid" as well, what a joke.
Info like that, I'll pass on this for sure.

Re: upmixing... Really, it is a pretty complicated/technical discussion.. I am no expert by any means. Interested parties can research for themselves matrix/active matrix; dpl, dplii etc. ..
In the end what I did was try various programs/techniques and gave samples for people to check out & decided on the atsurround active matrix decoding.
It should be similar to official dplii decoding. Similar/different for better or worse? Your mileage may vary... But likely minute in any case..
satanika what do you think of this software?

So any news on the "new" ESB mix or are we just going to use the previously made version? just curious because SW and ESB are pretty much ready to be authored now.
What is your email? and I do not have any BD50 rewritable blanks, would it be OK to make a BD25 out of it for testing purposes? or does it have to be BD50 to test? I can test on a Sony BDP-S350 and PS3 new and old version(or fat and slim).
*nevermind about the email, I got it off a NFO file I have.
Fantasia, Fantasia 2000 and Beauty and The Beast are all coming out on Disney Blu-ray later this year.

Huffyuv or Lagarith are both popular lossless codecs. Lagarith has the advantage that you can keep the video in YV12 colourspace, whereas Huffyuv only works with YUY2 or RGB.
So in your opinion Lagarith is the better of the 2, damn I am still using Huffy, time for a change.

Then on to SW's Remix.
What remains to be done to the Star Wars mixes? I thought those were completed already.
(Not trying to sound impatient. I'm just eager to get these puppies!)
I am ripping all the '85 remixes as well and sync'ing to the GOUT video, I am putting together a master raw PCM set of all stereo mixes, I am getting this from the JSC set I have, then it is off to Jedi, but it is getting easier now with all the experience I am getting now, not as frustrating anymore, Adywan was right, Vegas is very COOL once you get used to it.
Not sure if the remixes will be on the DVD's or not but they might.
