Avoid fake grain; find real 35mm grain plates instead - there are some free!

Test: Predator Ultimate Hunter... Big Grin
avatar
I'm not yet sure what to use for testing and comparison purposes, though.
avatar
I might use it for my projects, depending on how well it works.
avatar
Found a nifty DIY grain script: http://avisynth.nl/index.php/GrainFactory3

And Manhunter... I'm so jealous. And ID4 on July 4th on 35mm... I wish they had shown me THAT when I went to see "Resurgence"!
avatar
I'm tempted to go to one of the 70mm Aliens screening. I'd also love to go the the Mann-a-thon to see The Keep
avatar
avatar
Search on ebay for Alien 35mm Slide. I wonder where these originated from.
avatar
Stop making me spend money!

Phenomina Limited Edition: https://www.amazon.co.uk/Phenomena-Limit...06WGSDG22/ - I just bought mine!

To the Britons - Alien is playing in 70mm in London in June, details here: https://princecharlescinema.com/PrinceCh...?f=2329841

Another legend leaves us. RIP

Lol that was awesome!

avatar
Thanks for the heads-up on their new release! Grab the new manual, too. I hope they improved the interface (you know, like for a video game -- easy to learn).
avatar
Anyway, regarding the new public beta of DaVinci Resolve, Resolve 14, would laptops be able to do more than with Resolve 12.5? Or would I still need a desktop for color grading purposes?
avatar
I swear by ffmpeg. Not really an AIO solution to anything, but, hey, better than freaking codec packs.
avatar
Actually. What Poita said. I was just trying to be nice. My experiences with codec packs have left me with the feeling that codec packs should be avoided. I use ffmpeg once in a great while but it's portable and doesn't affect the whole system.
avatar
LOL! Just read those extra pages and found someone familiar! ... Never mind ... Big Grin
avatar
@ AntcuFaalb - Google brought up http://originaltrilogy.com/topic/Blade-R...34/page/17 . (Looks like OT keeps losing it's posters w info. Still, read a few pages for leads.)
avatar
Semms as if it is something like multiple Anti Virus Softwares... Smile
avatar
Absolutely do not install codec packs, nothing but trouble really.
avatar
Mhm.. very valid argument.. due to the fact that the PC is not for.. deep encoding.. maybe a DVD I own for use on my mobile phone or a networked media tank.. but no really heavy encoding.
avatar
I'd say not until you find yourself needing it. For playback just use vlc. I currently have only lags and x264/x265 installed for capturing and encoding etc.
avatar
So... new PC... should I install a codec pack.. or not?
avatar
I did, but not as much as some of the other alien films. AC is way better than Prometheus!
avatar
Did you like Prometheus Valeyard?
avatar
I just saw Alien Covenant ... WOW, incredible! Highly reccomended.
avatar
RIP Michael Parks
avatar
i think it's gone the way of the dodo. Aside from the older color-timing, which can be found on the early DVDs, I don't remember anything special about it.
avatar
Does anyone here have the 15GB or so 1080i broadcast capture of Blade Runner from 2006?
avatar
Didn't help that it was a double-sided disc.
avatar
Worse, it wasn't as obvious to me as the 2002 release of My Fellow Americans in 1997 packaging turned out to be, even when I looked at the physical disc's inner ring after the fact.
avatar
See, the DVD I got... it's a 1999 release in 1997 packaging.
avatar
OK, the actual master dates and times for the 1997 DVD of Bonnie and Clyde, both fullscreen and widescreen sides, are gonna be needed real soon from someone, because now I'm trying to figure out what the actual first WB DVD releases were, and Bonnie and Clyde is sometimes said to be one of the first.
avatar
That's sad Sad. I was excited to see it but the reviews are all over the place
avatar
saw it yesterday in Oz. It was a bit disappointing
avatar
Just to let you American fellow to know that yesterday Alien Covenant has been released in the Italian theaters... Tongue hope to watch it today! Ok
avatar
avatar
Happy to see you around here again, poita... sorry for everything happened lately, hope future will be brighter.
avatar
Sorry for everyone waiting on replies from me, my VDSL modem has died, I'm looking to buy a replacement, restricted to free internet at the town library at the moment!
avatar
^ ^ ^ Definitely, do NOT try to think through that whole Smurfs thing. :-O
avatar
What!? What the smurf are you talking about!?
avatar
"oh... Yeah... Give me the smurfs..."
avatar
Somehow... This sounds... naughty... Big Grin
avatar
I can't wait to get 53GB full of Smurfs... Tongue Tongue Tongue
avatar
I don't think AACS2 has been cracked. It was probably leaked by someone who handled the disc before it was encrypted for retail.
avatar
It's the only 4K-compatible gaming computer I could find at my local Best Buy (both of them), anyway.
avatar
I say it's about time! OK! Time to consider getting an Alienware Aurora as our next restoration PC!
avatar
Thanks Chew
avatar
Given what I've read, I'm fairly sure it's been cracked. I'm curious to see how it works too. I think the file structure is similar to BD.
avatar
Might be, might be an exploit for that disc only.
avatar
No one is talking yet
avatar
So, AACS 2.0 is ded?
avatar
I'm curious to see the file structure. Especially how the HDR works.
avatar
I saw that
avatar
As it happens, it's The Smurfs 2. Now we have to learn how to edit another video format. Big Grin
avatar
The first UHD BD is in the wild. Happy
avatar
avatar
I happen to have a friend who lives in the Dallas area last I checked, and I just now forwarded it to him.
avatar
Guys, anyone from Dallar or Austin that would pick up this LD collection + player for free?!? http://originaltrilogy.com/topic/Free-LD...r/id/53885 - if still available, of course...
avatar
haven't forgot about that Alien....what happened with that?
avatar
after what went down with my site I took some time off but have started a new one
avatar
it is indeed I HDVinnie
avatar
Found the colour timing between these frames from two separate trailers interesting. I'm not fussed about the armpit issues lol http://epicstream.com/news/Wonder-Woman-...arner-Bros
avatar
Thanks MrBrown for the link! Will look at that later
avatar
I just got hold of the original Aliens THX DVD of the SE (first release). The trailer on that one looks very much like the blu-ray minus the blanket tint! Lots of cyan
avatar
Bloatware was never my cup of tea, that's for sure.
avatar
Guys, DO... NOT... PLAY... TO... Candy Crush Soda Saga!!! It's way worse than any psychotropic substance... not joking (pun intended)! Big Grin
avatar
Probably Vinnie?
avatar
Who were you?
avatar
been along time.....see my old account was banned after I fell of the face of the earth
avatar
hello

Is there a thread or project somewhere for the perseveration of studio logos and idents? Was watching a bunch yesterday (old UA, CBS FOX Video, New World Pictures etc) and was wondering if there was an audience for it? Would be a good resource for other preservation projects as well
avatar
Because for AFOD I was hoping to extend the title track a bit in its first couple of uses (specifically, when Joe confronts the Baxters that had earlier attacked him, and later when the Baxters are preparing for their dinner with the Rojos).
avatar
Regarding music track replacement... is it possible to isolate the sound effects and dialogue in doing so?
avatar
Cool! ... at General discussions -- Everything else -- Recommended BMD setup for color grading :: https://forum.fanres.com/thread-1446.html
avatar
It's up now.
avatar
Keep in mind that whatever 2nd monitor you settle on, you'll probably need a calibration kit (hardware/software). BTW, is there a thread here with all this kind of info? If not, maybe you should start one so we all can refer to it long after these Shouts fade away. It would make a good thread.
avatar
And as for actual stuff from BMD, would their UltraStudio be recommended? Because that's the cheapest external I could find being offered on their site.
avatar
Because I'm planning on doing stuff in 1080p HD.
avatar
Anyway, would a CRT monitor work as the second monitor for color grading, or would something more high-tech be called for in such a case?
avatar
Means it's one of the greats.

avatar
Yeah! The Herald Video japanese Evil Dead LaserDisc arrived today. Too bad, I see my LD player next time in two weeks
avatar
Anyway, regarding the BMD equipment I'll be needing for manual color grading in Resolve... would a CRT monitor suffice, or do I need something else as my second monitor?
avatar
Silence of the Lambs FTW

Agreed RIP
