To paraprase Professor Foot ... With a drive like that, I could ... dare I say it? ... rule the world.

To whom it may concern: the nu 4TB is in da house! As soon as the actual encoding will finish, I'll install it, to get 10TB in the new PC! Ok
avatar
I grabbed The Cure - Show because it's an awesome live performance by them.
avatar
Gotta love Commando
avatar
Commando IMAX format oh yeah!!!
avatar
when i'm on my laptop next. Grabbed Commando though (open matte) lookign forward to checking that out
avatar
Sorry, I meant would you please pm me a link?
avatar
You can't post torrent links here...
avatar
Link?
avatar
just an FYI, someone has been capping Laserdiscs and uploading them over at rutracker.org. Couple i saw were The Terminator (Image LD), Commando and The Fly. all are fullscreen and have English Dolby Digital 2.0 tracks included. fiel sizes vary (Commando was 3.5GB)
avatar
Anyone here by any chance own the French BD for Murders in the Rue Morgue (1932)??
avatar
May someone try to upload The Thing from the usual my-internal-organ, and see if it works? Thanks!

Don't worry. Once he gets hold of it, he doesn't last long.

Ask Narcissus.

You know ... that's what Achilles once told me (as if mere mortals know of any such things). Then again, he's a demi-god. Okay, I'll look into that. Anyone got a REALLY BIG mirror?
avatar
^^ I'd be more worried about your heel.
avatar
^LOL
avatar
That's because you humans don't have bronze skin. The Mrs. talked my ear off about deliberately constricted film contrast range (Jason And The Argonauts) making me look bad. I tell her that's show biz. But, believe me, it's no help because ... BRONZE WIVES MATTER ! BTW, anyone know a good metallurgist? Scotch tape just ain't doin' it for my ear.
avatar
@Valeyard Some people will do literally anything to find something to get upset about
avatar
It would be great if they removed the digital 'fixes' but I doubt they would
avatar
I assume some DNR to call it "remastered", but time will tell. It is scheduled to be released March 28th.
avatar
Nice, I assume same master?
avatar
Seems as if Germany is getting DTS-HD MA 1.0 and 2.0 Stereo English audio on the upcoming evil Dead BluRay
avatar
Think that I define myself a "human person", while my cats are "animal persons"... still members of our family, even if smaller, furrier and smarter!
avatar
It seems more political than informative.
avatar
What do you guys make of this? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d16LNHIEJzs
avatar
Oh no... poor guy. Sad
avatar
So sad about Paxton
avatar
That is very cool.
avatar
Ha, now that's pretty cool
avatar
avatar
First John Hurt, now Bill Paxton... sad days indeed for all the movie fans, in particular Aliens fans... Sad
avatar
Oh boy, i can see how things might go wrong with heart surgery.
avatar
Agreed, 61 is no age to go. Apparently complications from heart surgery
avatar
Not sure yet
avatar
Waaaay too young to pass away, how sad. What was the surgery for anyways?
avatar
Game over: RIP Bill Paxton. Loved your work
avatar
I think of maybe LD or VHS capturing. But at least with LD I want a decent Audio quality. I can live with 2 Channels. I lack the knack for audio editing, so I won't be able to sync something.
avatar
I'd imagine the more generic USB devices would work OK, is this for analogue capture?
avatar
mhmm.. are there any Win10 compatible USB Video Capture Cards and USB Sound (Capture) Cards that are not too expensive, and well enough?
avatar
my god, If i had disposable cash, I would get that Die Hard print no questions asked
avatar
avatar
An LPP print of Die Hard just came on ebay. http://www.ebay.com/itm/322431952009?ul_noapp=true Anybody wanna buy?
avatar
Over at OT you could contact Frink. He's a member there and might be able to help sort it for you.
avatar
Any fanedit.org user here? I would like to help in a project, but I'm not registered (yet) and, when I tried, the message was "We cannot process your registration because there has already been 2 new registration(s) from your ip address in the past 24 hours. Please try again later." (it wasn't the case)...
avatar
Yeah, we had nothing to do with the audio
avatar
The most recent, we only just finished it.
avatar
I just browsed many forums for you Poita, it looks like one of those films that can only make people argue about how it used to look, how it's supposed to look etc... they all agree that they don't like the new audio mix (not that the video restoration has anything to do with it), the video quality besides the two complains listed before made general audiences happy. If any more feedbacks come to my attention I'll let you know
avatar
I go by Amazon reviews as I couldn't go see it at the cinema a few weeks back... I'm reporting what was said about the version scanned and restored by "TLEFilm Restoration & Preservation Services": one user complains about colors being washed out and states that the Anchor Bay DVD from a few years back is still the most valid (although limited to SD quality but contains the original stereo mix), another one noticed the fonts being different and was unhappy about that. Tongue
avatar
I mean, the most recent one or the 2013 one by Synapse?
avatar
Which version Poita?
avatar
My company did the restoration on Suspiria, so I'd be interested in any feedback
avatar
The 4k version that was shown in cinemas here and is now on Blu-Ray was scanned and digitally cleaned up in Germany, so I guess it's a different work altogether (Synapse is American, right?)
avatar
This is a different restoration to the Synapse technicolor one, yes?
avatar
(some older fan also complaints that the 5.1 mix of Suspiria is clumsy and relegate the memorable Goblin soundtrack to nothing more than background noise)
avatar
The only bad thing with this new Italian restorations is that they work on negatives so they have to re-create the credits digitally and they can't always get the fonts right, sometimes they change text all together. So don't throw away your older DVDs of Italian cinema just yet
avatar
Not sure if it's been mentioned but Eagle Pictures in Italy have just released a brand new 4K restored Bluray of Suspiria. BD50 with maxed out bitrate and. DTS-MA 5.1 / LPCM 1.0 mono audio tracks in English and Italian. My copy is on the way https://www.amazon.it/Suspiria-Versione-...s=suspiria

Well, even if it was actually in Germany for me as well! Wink

Not mine just someone I follow on youtube
avatar
Curious George is great, while Train is in a pretty bad status... have you the less compressed versions?
avatar

avatar
(I got a private reply to my previous question Big Grin )
avatar
I just noticed that Fright Night US release in Blu-Ray includes a "soundtrack only" audio track, something that I don't think we have here in Europe. Does anyone have it?
avatar
and also the hyperOS is more than 10 times slower than NVMe drives.
avatar
...
avatar
That is damn expensive unless you have coin to waste, wow.
avatar
avatar
The voltage is probably about right but the wattage would probably drain a button battery in a day or less I'd imagine. I could be totally wrong on this. If I am sign me up for ram HDD's!
avatar
Well, a button battery will last for many years - I think five at least, but maybe more... if you add two of them, you could swap one at the time, without losing data... a small price to pay (open your PC every five or more years), I think.
avatar
It's volatile. You lose everything when you turn it off. I think the newer m.2/nvme hdd's are getting closer to ram performance though.
avatar
Why don't they use DDR RAM instead? Yes, they will be a lot smaller at the same cost, but will last forever, and be a lot faster... a 16/32GB will be perfect for OS purposes!!!
avatar
Doh SSD last about 20 years when they are constantly rewritten. They are more reliable than mechanical HDDs
avatar
Guys, don't know if you are aware I'm working on an extended edition of the Star Wars saga... well, today adywan agreed to let me use his Revisited edition for my project... he's really a kind guy, and made a great job! Ok
avatar
I'm glad I upgraded to quad core last year, it isn't the fastest in the world but it is 'fast enough'.
avatar
I just got my first component for my new PC, that I will get start of April... It is the Data Hard Drive, 2TB hybrid SSHD... Now I just need the Computer, Boot Disc, RAM and OS... Well... Step by step...
avatar
SSDs are definitely faster but they rarely last for longer than 3 years. New and fragile technology.
avatar
FranT, a HDD is a classical storage unit with a disc inside. A SSD is a flash memory unit a bit like an SD card for example.
avatar
Dunno, zoidberg; I'll discuss in the thread later
avatar
What's the difference between an HD and an SSD?
avatar
The worst part is the million digit code to activate Windows on a new PC. Plus all the updates! But it's also a good chance to clear out the chaff. You not tempted to get a SSD?
avatar
Thanks, it was really time... now I'm starting to cry, thinking about to setup everything right! Big Grin
avatar
spoRv, I'm glad to hear you have a new PC for your projects.
avatar
I knew it, I knew it! Even from the remote Italy, you could hear me giggling, laughing, jumping high... horray!
avatar
I heard you giggling all the way home! lol
avatar
But... nobody heard me, when I took THE NEW PC home?!? Big Grin Big Grin Big Grin

In his house, no one can hear him scream. Wink

I can hear your running around the house all the way from here.
