Well I tried dropping the bitrate down to 9mb and did a 5 1\2 min clip and it stuttered 6 times in 1 scene and then the rest played fine and looked great,so I am thinking it is a DVD-RW problem,soon as I get my BD-RE's they should play just fine,I hope.

I can make AVCHD Discs all day without a hitch(knocks on wood)so maybe it is a bitrate plus DVD-RW issue,because the clip was encoded at 25mb bitrate LOL,AVCHD discs are only what 7-9mb bitrate.

maybe I could try lowering it(bitrate)and see what happens,my BD SL & DL RE's won't be here until next week sometime,my drive should be here any moment now today.

This is starting to frustrate the friggin shit out of me now,every single time I make a sample to check on my PS3 and BDP-S350 they stutter on the S350,I tried making AVCHD's and Blu-ray using TSmuxer and MultiAVCHD,and burning to a DVD-RW,could using an RW be the problem? also does not matter which encoder I use to,whether it be MeGUI using the free x264,or Sonics CineVision,same shit,but plays smoothly on the PC,and from the PS3,just won't boot and play from the PS3,I have to locate the file then play it.

So does anyone have any idea's here so I can get something friggin finished already LOL,this is really trying my patience,and I have none already to try.

@g-force,do you have anything for ESB yet or just ANH?

I think it looks too magenta.

Agreed. DJ, I sent you the wrong numbers (from memory).

So you talked me into sending you the script from memory for "just for playin around", and then go and post the results. Oh well. ;)

Here is the actual script that seemed to work well for ANH:

Levels(0,1.5,255,0,255)
yv12 = last
ConvertToRGB32
r=ShowRed.  Levels(0,.75,255,10,255)
g=ShowGreen.Levels(0,.80,255,10,200)
b=ShowBlue. Levels(0,.75,255,10,190)
MergeRGB(r,g,b)
ConvertToYV12
MergeChroma(yv12,last)

It's all in fun man,I surely are not serious yet,but even with the magenta look it still looks way better than the source,and if you read closer you will see I put "rough" in there,just havin some fun man,just havin some fun.

OK here are some "rough" samples of some simple\basic color correcting for ESB,what do you think?

I am sure you can tell which is the source LOL

PM sent and you know me g-force,I am always open for testing,as I said in the PM to you,I am sitting here right now trying to figure out a way to take out some of the blue color on ESB right now.

But keep in mind we are working with lossless avi files.

I think Ady said the opening is upconverted on the German .TS,that is why I use the English version up until the first scene change,I have only messed with ANH and ESB so far.

Thanks Ady then I will wait a little bit longer.

LOL changing the frame rate and slowing down the audio is the easiest thing about this project,it is the subtitle masking and trying to figure out what damn encoder to use,I would like to give CineVision a shot because it was the only one that played very well on my PS3 and Sony BDP-S350,when I encoded with friggin MeGUI I got a lot of stuttering during playback,did not get any with CineVision at all.

and on a kick ass note,I will have my Pioneer BDP-230 this Thursday and already ordered BD-RE's,and BD-R's,and have a case of Blue Blu-ray cases.

So do you have any updates DVD-BOY? also what x264 discussion are you talking about,do you have a link?

OK is the audio that is on this DVD right now really that bad? I really want to watch this but NOT if it is really noticeable on high end audio setup,plus I want to give the thread a bump so it is not forgotten.

That multiAVCHD looks kind of interesting,I will have to look inot that.

"Have you been following the Doom9 discussion about x264 for BD"

What do you mean here,what is going on?

I used version 4 on my last set,and to me it looked good on my 65" HDTV being upconverted,I did not like the way the latest v6.64 looked on my setup,v4 looked better to me,maybe not to others,but it did to me,I do not stare at still frames and judge all my work on them alone,yes they do show a lot,but I am all about the motion video,I want to see it how I am going to be watching it.

The version I am using when I redo the set will still be version 4 again,but with subtitle changes and added the ESB fix into it,if g-force shows something different than v6.64 before I start my 2nd set of version 4 then I will certainly test it out,but for right now I am going ahead with what I have.

hopefully that cleared it up for you.

But, that'll look more like V.6 anyway. If you want to fix V.4, just replace the entire "global motion" stage with the new one.

-G

Yea I figured it out and have already been running tests,but thanks anyway for the response.

There are actually a lot of movies I am really hoping would be released,but these really come to mind fast,Labyrinth(which I believe is actually coming at the end of Sept.)Legend and Conan The Barbarian.

Yes all I want is the fix for the "magic tree" scene for the version 4 script,I do not like v6.64 so I will not make a new version to that,but the ESB problem needs to be fixed,and yes I am moving the subs up into the very bottom portion of the movie on SW and ROTJ,so to make a long story short,I will be doing all 3 over 1 more time.

Great feedback guys,now all we need to know about is Jedi,and I have my own Pioneer BDR-203 on the way,so I can now burn my own.

OK now I will FINALLY be able to do my own testing,I have a Pioneer BDR-203 on the way.

OK I am going to do new versions of these movies so I am running some tests,here are some screens,and also the gold trim behind Solo is shaking again,it was fixed but it is back,so I was wondering is there any way to just add the "magic tree ESB" fix to the version 4 script?

here are the samples

video sample
http://www.sendspace.com/file/yygneg

and before anyone comments on the sub placement,yes I moved them,I want them in the video now like the HD files I have,so now when I do other GOUT projects I do not have to worry about adding them back in again,plus I like how it looked on the HD files,hell if I could get that font,I would use it instead of this one,but not sure what font was used.

looking at these samples again,to me it seems v4 looks better,these look blurry,like a little out of focus,so it would be nice to have the "magic tree ESB" fix for version 4,if you need version 4 I can PM it to you.(that is the version I used to make the first set)

Well I just picked up American Psycho and The Usual Suspects on Blu-ray at Walmart for only $10 a piece,have not wqatched them yet but I am sure they will be better than their DVD versions.

Also scored Dead Space Blu-ray on sale at Best buy for only $12.99.

Guys, I just was notified of the problem with New Hope, it was ripped from my Bluray disk which apparently had failed the burn process without any notification and playback was fine till I went to point in question. This error did not exist prior to the burn.

With the amount of piss and vinager that pours out of this forum I must be some kind of saint to fix this and repost it again, which I promise to do. This was the only release I rar'd down from the bluray disk directly. Empire and Jedi are still raw finished projects from the hard disk that have/are posting so those will not have this problem. I hope you continue to grab Jedi as it should be on par with Empire now. 

 

I'm in the process of correcting New Hope from the original assets.

Thank you very much for responding and taking the time to correct it and re-uploading it,I want to grab these when you are pretty certain they are good,I am new to the Blu-ray burning and creating,this is a whole new ballgame now.

Thanks again WG

ps.I don't suppose you would be interested in working out a deal\trade to obtain these directly from you? if so my PM is always open.

$10 blank Blu Rays.

That is for a single layer Blu-ray,these are dual layer,they are $20-$30 depending on where you buy and what brand,really sad,that is why I said I really hope these guys that have jumped all over these releases tested them first on rewritable Blu-ray discs.

BMadden said:

It's crazy that these things wouldn't be thoroughly checked before being uploaded.

That is exactly what I said,really crazy and sloppy,I truly hope you guys that keep burning these are testing them first on a rewritable Blu-ray.

Thanks FazZ for all the info,looks like I will wait for another version(if there are any),this is why I am making my own Saga set.

Damn I am glad I did not jump on these yet then to,I almost did,well looks like a PROPER PROPER REISSUE now LOL.

curious why he does not have people check these for him before ALL the uploading,just does not make sense,especially for files of this size.

I ALWAYS checked over ADM's projects before anything was ever released to the masses.
