Hi guys,just an update,for now i am scrapping the anamorphic WS versions(for now any ways),just cant get the IVTC right in the opening of ANH(and cant figure out how to do it manually),and even with the filters i am using,it still looks like shit on my hidef 62' WS tv(for that matter ALL captures by everyone look like shit on my tv)the only SW dvd's that look good on my tv are ADM's and OCP's,because they use the official release for the most part,however i am still working on Blade Runner Criterion Collection in anamorphic widescreen,so far looks pretty good and i have some help with this one.
I will still release this *cropped* set though,but it will be in 4:3 Letterbox form,and it will NOT be filtered,but will be encoded using a higher bitrate using CCE SP,and the art will probably just be the original Dark\Sega art modified for this release.
sorry guys just cant get this IVTC thing right to make WS(and i am so frustrated with this now,i just want to finish ANH and delete off HD and move on to ESB),but Blade Runner worked well,and looks pretty good on my tv,go figure

Hi i just got CSamp from the X0project website, and read on the B&W point settings,and i am following the directions as given,but when i put the cursor on the black bars,i get no RGB numbers,but the box is black, also when you do get numbers should RGB be the same number?i tried a white area and all three were differnet numbers,am i doing something completely wrong here?
thanks in advance

Hi Tellan,damn that looks good,how do you make the colors so crisp?i am working on a cropped unsubbed version of the Special Collection,and would like to crisp up the colors on my set,are you using avisynth?
it is slightly jerky though(cant tell,might be the starfield),my opening starfield in ANH is a little jerky,but it might just have to stay that way,once it gets to the star destroyer firing on Leia's ship it is fine.
but damn that looks good,sounds good too
keep up the great work

OK converttoyuy2 it is,i have been having better luck with that anyways,also now that i have IVTC'd and resized it looks alot better than the above pics,so those are not accurate at the moment,damn if this turns out good,i will definitely go back and redo some of my other stuff,like Blade Runner.
1 more question,when using Citizens aspect ratio calc. you use the dimensions of the video alone right?no black bars,if this is the case,than i could just use autocrop to give me my dimensions,which are 704*280,crop(10,57,704,280),then resize to 720*382 per Citizens calc. then addborders(0,60,0,60),does this sound correct for my anamorphic WS?
thanks for your time

those pics above will be updated soon with better shots,also if there are any AviSynth users reading this,can someone please tell me which of these are better "converttoyuy2" or "converttoyv12",and why?
i see i have to use one of these before i can do anything with my script.
thanks again
also i didnt mean to offend anyone,i just thought since Jap is short for Japanese it would be OK,I had NO idea that the shortened version like that is offensive,sorry guys.
but i am going to leave the word Japanese in Special Collection,because that is what it is,that is how it is advertised,but instead of the other i will use "Cropped Edition" is this better?

right now i am just using the default () settings(on the filters), just to see if it would even make a difference,my whole problem now is CCE,i got some settings from Moth3r,but now that i am messing with the video,my encodes are jerky again,but if i just do a straight encode(just like the dark/sega set)with the template it encodes right,so something changed,damn i need a CCE book LOL,and just getting some of these filters to even work is a friggin job,i still havent got SeeSaw to work yet,and i really want to see what this looks like, Didée at Doom9 is a genious.

Hi Guys,
This is where i am at on the Japanese Special Collection,what i am trying to do is,remove the japanese text,and crop and recenter the video,because i think this set is pretty cool,and would look a whole lot better without the jap text LOL,soon as i figure all this cropping,re-sizing,and filtering,i should be able to buzz right along,also still trying to figure out CCE LOL,still getting some jerky video after CCE encode,but here is what i am looking at right now:

i am still learning the filters,i know i have to do some tweaking,but what i notice when running the video,it looks bad on my PC in Anamorphic,cant figure out why.
I also downsized a little bit so I wouldnt take up so much space.
so if any one has any ideas please let me know
thanks for your time
and a special thanks to Moth3r and Grinder,you guys are a TON of help
DJ
ps they are also in bitmap,that is how VDUBMod spits them out.
filters i am messing with(AviSynth filters):
autocrop,denoise,dust,limitedsharpenbeta & limitedsharpenfaster,seesaw(havent got this one working yet)and all the supporting filters.
