uh huh, another case of regrading for the sake of regrading.

question, are you working from raw uncompressed scans, or are you using the mpeg2 encoded version from myspleen, or something else altogether?

You should add the Beverly Hillbillies and Bonanza. As far as I know, the iconic theme songs are only on the vhs and laserdiscs, both my dvd sets have some medicore replacement music instead.

Frankly, these days you’re legitimately better off buying a pre-made system. Individual parts costs are through the roof and so it’s actually cheaper to buy pre-made now.

maybe if they’ve finally started making them with bluray drives.

When does Enterprise get good? The theme song, writing, acting (etc) of the few episodes I watched bored me.

Random thought I had: with transporter and replicator technology, would be possible to pull off some great heists, like stealing the Mona Lisa replacing it with replica.

never, at least up to the point I quit watching it.

my, This something I never would have expected to see available to the public. It would at the very least make a neat bluray bonus feature.

Here a cookoo one for the Force Awakens that I heard on youtube

“It doesn’t respect george lucas”

Huh? as much as I didn’t like the movie, that was one thing that never went through my mind, talk about nutty rants"

Hey hey - come on guys - don’t insult…I’m trying my best will zero experience. Being told that I would work it out if I want it bad enough or that I remind them of someone’s mother isn’t nice.

Yesterday I spent a few hours just trying to get the free rapid download thing - I couldn’t work out how to get it from the dropbox account to my laptop and in the end tried to find it online and was met with a barrage of Norton warnings about threats prevented and being directed to german websites with green “download” buttons that were going to make me download “other software” I didn’t want.

It’s been quite stressful this end - and I’m scared of getting a virus on the laptop or doing something to my computer I can’t undo.

I wouldn’t worry too much about viruses back when I actually used windows, antivirus software will flare bogus warnings sometimes, your probably better of going the torrent route, transmission qt is probably the simplest one to use.

intersteller really needs a fan audio touch up or something, I tried to watch it at a friends house, and the dialog was inaudible, and the sound effects were enough to require earplugs!

Maybe your friend needs to friend rebalance his sound system.

yeah, from what i remember Interstellar’s sound mix is superb.

he didn’t have a sound system at the time, just an old crt.

I don’t know a lot about downmixing. But I suspect that a stereo CRT could make a DTS surround track sound like shit.

plausible, ill have to rent it sometime and see.

This is a 1977 theatrical preservation. It’s not 4k81 or 4k97 or any other revisionist versions.
Why not both? It’s just the crawl. I like options.

Because it’s time taken away from 4k80 and 4k83, and perhaps other original preservations.

huh? like you could say that about almost every project here.

that would be neat to see.

Okay just ordered a 4gb 128 bit gtx 960 video card for 25 bucks from ebay, which is basically the next step up from my current one and supports h265, I’ll let everyone know if it makes a difference.

Just my two cents on the detail level from watching my re-encode, it may not be what some people expect of blurays, but having watched tons of older films on bluray, this is very comparable and in many ways far better than some films I’ve watched. The grain is hardly noticeable for most of the movie, it’s like a comprimise between silver screen and despecialized, minimal grain and plenty of detail and still has the appearance a 70’s film.

I think my computer needs a better graphics card for it.

 
They finally did it, I assume now that it’s released we can talk about it now. Been curious to see this project for some time, anyone watched it yet?

does this movie actually have a bluray release or is it all talk like abyss? I couldn’t find one, although they mention it in the description.

I’m surprised it took this long for someone to mention this one, it came out late last year didn’t it?

can anyone suggest a pair of el-cheapo under $50 headphones suitable for recording? It’s for monitoring a shotgun microphone attached to a camera.

‘NEW HD SCAN OF CULT FILM “TURKISH STAR WARS” TO PREMIERE MAY 4’…

https://neonharbor.com/new-hd-scan-of-cult-film-turkish-star-wars-to-premiere-may-4/
 

this is good news, I read about the print being found several years ago, being only one known to exist, I guess it’s finally going to be seen by the public, a moment in history for the recovery of an nearly lost film.

they pulled the same stunt with the Carnival of Souls, just a flimsy deterrent splice in the 1080p version from here:https://archive.org/details/Night.Of.The.Living.Dead_1080p

wow, finally someone mentions something that has actual value on 35mm, seems everyone is worried about movies that will always be available in some form of HD. it doesnt actually look that bad for 1917, any luck on identifying the fighters or which match this was?
