OK.

WHY?

I seem to have a problem with all of my recorded files created with my Hauppauge 1212.
After recording, I edit using VideoReDo and then use MultiAVCHD to author a disc. All files that are authored come out with a jump at the beginning, with the files themselves seemingly losing 3 frames.

Now, the odd thing is that the files are still ok. If I wanted to re-encode all of them, I could and the problem would disappear so it's not as if something has been re-encoded or cut. It's a playback issue and it only happens after the editing from VRD. For example, if I took the raw file from the Hauppauge and authored that, it wouldn't be a problem.

However, I'd rather figure out what TSmuxer (by way of Multiavchd) is doing to the files. For some reason, whenever it gets a hold of them to change from ts to M2TS (or even just from .ts to .ts), they come out with this problem.

After asking people about this issue on videohelp, I was told that smartcutters sometimes screw around with the information in the header and that is most likely causing this problem. Does anyone have any experience with this type of issue or know how I could correct the header so that I don't have to re-encode all of my files?

You can purchase it on Vudu. I don't see what the big deal is.

Well if we are looking for it we have a reason, if not interested why even post in this thread?

To me, for bonus features, like making ofs, VHS quality is good enough. Unless there are scenes in it that are not in the movies, and can be put back in the movie for alternate editions.

We have only currently had access to the sources, and the scans.

Which is why we didn't mention it previously.



Most likely we will include one with each movie released.

However, there will be a disc with all of them on there so you won't have to wait for all of them to be released separately.

Out of curiosity how much he asking for it?

I believe 2k.

We have access and scans of all the Star Wars and Raiders documentaries. In good condition. They've been taken care of, and will be released. More details will be revealed later on.

If only there was some way you could find out in about 15 seconds using the internet... something where you could type in a question and immediately get an answer...

In the meantime, until that technology exists, all I can say is it's pornography involving threesomes.

Just a thought... But...


I'm sure both Fox and Disney would love to sell the original versions of the trilogy since they only care about making money and selling the original trilogy would be a cash cow. However, I'm willing to bet that Lucas foresaw that possibility and he likely included a stipulation that says Disney and/or Fox cannot release the original trilogy without his permission otherwise the rights to the films revert back to him.


He may not be a good filmmaker, but he is a savvy businessman.

Both Raiders docs made it to Laserdisc in the U.S., so there are no subtitles to contend with. Can't recall if anyone ever undertook a preservation of them.

The Making of Indiana Jones and The Temple of Doom never had a video release at all, AFAIK.

SilverWook said:

Hardware Wars on Blu Ray might look too good. ;)

Hope they include Ernie Fosselius' other projects, especially Porklips Now. You can probably guess what that is a spoof of...

Regardless, I'd love The Making of Star Wars, Classic Creatures and Great Movie Stunts Raiders special. But...who knows what shape they're in or if I could get someone interested enough to do the work.

I'm amazed any public libraries still have film collections these days.

SilverWook said:

Interesting, but can you actually check the print out and take it home? Scanning a print is something that shouldn't be rushed.

I had a lead on a SWTJ print at an Ohio university, but the link doesn't work anymore.

https://filmcollections.osu.edu/AqdAaDZ6r

The documentary prints Puggo scanned were library discards that turned up on Ebay.

SilverWook said:

What we really need to find is Classic Creatures, and especially Star Wars To Jedi:The Making of a Saga.

So a member of the laserdisc facebook group is looking to get rid of his x9 machine and I have a feeling many people here would be interested.
He said:
"It works perfectly and comes with all packing materials. Only 1 or 2 very minor scratches on it. Even the box is in really good shape. It has 5 muse discs and 300 regular discs to come with it"

The catch is that he doesn't want to ship it. Anyone in (or near) Michigan looking for one?

If you are able to borrow them, I may be able to sort something out in NY.

They also have 16mm Star Wars, Jedi, 2001, Classic Creatures- Return of the Jedi, Hardware Wars, the Star Trek movies, The Time Machine and lots of other cool stuff.

(Sorry, I originally put this in the wrong section)

Sooo…

The library at Lincoln Center in NYC has 2 16mm copies available. Unfortunately, I have no way of scanning it. Is there anyone else near NYC that would be interested? I don’t believe we have a scan of it yet, no?

https://nypl.bibliocommons.com/item/show/17608352052907_the_making_of_star_wars

They also have one of the Raiders of the Lost Ark documentaries on 16mm as well!

I don't have that movie.

But when you rip a full HD DVD you could play the IME using a software player. You can also rip the PiP track(s) used for it, but if it's not one long video for the entire film it would be tough to sync with the actual movie.

Where did the "workprint" footage come from? Was there ever a film source?

Believe it or not, it's not a workprint. There's just the one green screen scene (after Calvin's evacuation announcement but before the water breach) that might have even made it into the theatrical cut. I didn't see it theatrically but I can confirm that scene was green on the 1980s retail Australian VHS (my copy is now long gone, sadly).

The backdrop was changed to light blue on the Region 4 DVD and all the Australian TV broadcasts I've ever seen.

See screenshots: http://imgur.com/a/YIkKu

The colours on the VHD rip are a mess, but the green is accurate. I'd love it if someone with the VHD could confirm this please. I'd also love to know what the laserdisc looks like. This bizarre goof was part of the film's charm for me!
