This forum is weird sometimes…I was responding to the guy wanting a cover. Responses I have in mind have been said.
Usenet is actually quite easy, all you need is a usenet account (which can be had for $10 per month unlimited), and a newsreader program which most usenet providers will give you for free.
I would guess you could be up an running in less than 30 mins.
Its up on usenet now, filename and password unchanged
double post
Understood. Well I would just be reposting his files with no changes to the title or password
Ok, then I will upload it to usenet and post the link in this thread.
Its not on usenet, however I can upload it with Harmy’s permission. I am downloading it from his instructions, however usenet would be much faster for many.
So I will wait to hear back, a gem like this needs to be shared. I can guarantee like the rest of you, I have bought this trilogy (and everything else) all the way from VHS, LD, DVD and Blu.
I couldnt find them at all DJ.
Well, the audio from the Japanese broadcasts were not english, you would need to sync the DVD audio to them.
I can easily find the synced tracks for you and they should be under 400 days old on usenet
I think there are only 3 instances where any hardcoded subs show in the image, the rest were in the black bars of the broadcast which I removed in my encode.
1 in Raiders at the beginning where it says 'South America 1936'
1 in Temple at the beginning where it says 'Shanghai'
1 in Crusade where Indy and Connery look at the signs pointing to Berlin after the motorcycle scene.
I think that was all of them that I noticed when I watched them recently, so you shouldnt have alot of work to do there. I had a bit of trouble trying to find the right IVTC method though for the encode, but I am sure you could easily figure it out.
Good luck with the project.
I believe the BBC version has a lower bitrate overall with a softer picture.

So is the Japanese HD versions and BBC HD versions for all 3 films available somewhere?
I believe I gave you the source of the WOWOW (japanese) broadcast a LONG time ago.
anyway, these were from the Japanese broadcasts, I was able to remove 'most' of the japanese hardcoded subtitles. I bumped up the bitrate slightly to make up for the re-encode.
Believe me, these copies of the HDTV broadcast are as close to the originals as possible.

... not to mention OPs "site" I think is down
I spotted this text at the foot of an NFO file the other day while browsing through binsearch:
=HDvisUalS=
Ps3Avchd never died they moved on ;)
HD@ddictsPersonally, I have no interest in dealing with groups that waste Usenet resources by posting password-protected files, but someone else might want to search out where these guys went to.
Well, I appreciate your position on this, but when you are posting films on usenet, there is a danger of copyright infringement. Passwording is for the uploaders safety, so dont think for a second we do it selfishly. None of us do it for money, just to share our work.
The site is now invite only due to us being shut down BECAUSE we posted without passwords. I posted these a long time ago, but if anyone has a decent news service, might be able to get them.
those chopsticks are awesome
I heard they are coming out with new Force FX lightsabers with removable blades. If you try to turn it on without the blade it makes a fizzle sound :)
PM sent pnag
and ps3avchd.net is down for good

Any chance I could just pay you Rock for the cost of three BD-25's through Paypal for the Trilogy? Send me a PM please if it's alright.
sorry I didnt get back to you earlier.
unfortunately I cannot help you, I still dont even have a BD burner, but I can view them off of a USB HDD. I did make some DVD9 copies that turned out quite nice. You just need DVD-DL's for those, you can pm me if you want to know where to find them, I used the same source.
Actually come to think of it, if I had kept the original files I could have re-worked the menu without our name on it for you quite quickly and easily, but I am a neat freak so I delete all unneeded files when I was done with them, I dont even have the original source anymore.
Once you can get a grasp of DVD Architect 5.0, making your own menu with it is easy. You can make the background any video clip or static image you want and add music and link the movie to it, I just chose the DVD menu for something simple.
Its not too hard to remove the intro actually, if its just that, I wouldn't re-encode.
I cant remember the exact IVTC, but pretty sure it was Hybrid Film/Interlaced, mostly film.
I will try to do a quick write up later to let you know how to remove the intro and keep the menu intact.
dark_jedi said:
OK rock I will have the raw HD file w\sync'd audio and your BD25 for Raiders in the morning to do some comparing,hopefully ALL files in a few days.
Thanks again for the heads up and guidance to tracking them down,I really appreciate it a lot.
also sent you a PM
The sources are 29.97 fps and are a hybrid film and interlaced, so if you are going to re-encode them, an IVTC is necessary. Just a heads up.

Yep. Rock's version is definitely the original.
Indeed it is after checking again once I knew what to look for. I just had never seen that added CGI scene before.

As far as rapidshare, I would have to say no because it sucks and I have already uploaded these. 60+gb whick took me almost a week to upload with my speed. I am not being rude here, but if you can't shell out a few bucks for a news service, then I am afraid you may not get these.
I get unlimited DL for $11 a month through astraweb.
Sorry you feel so bad about the newsgroups, but there is no way I am putting these on a torrent. It took long enough to upload the 60gb to the newsgroups, I couldn't imagine trying to seed that much lol.
I dont think it looks CGI at all to be honest. I watched it from begining to end and didnt notice anything different
Here is another SS, can you show me what your talking about?
I took a screengrab, and it kinda looks original and very similar to the effects found in Temple of Doom when the bad guys fall off the bridge
ahh, then its probably in there.
dark_jedi said:
Is there any place to get the 1080 Braodcast for those of us that do our own encoding?
also what encoder did you use for the BD25 versions?
Thanks
ps. I just signed up but only saw the "Raiders" BD25,did not see the other 2.
The site does look pretty interesting,a lot of what I would be interested in,but why are some links still hidden,what needs to be done for that?
I noticed you signed up, and I bet you will love our site. The links are hidden until you respond to the thread, a nice 'thank you' will do.
As far as the encodes, I used DGindex, MeGUI, and Ripbot
I can easily provide the original .ts files and synced audio files if you want.
