What would you think of making Discord room for Fanres?

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!
when i'm on my laptop next. Grabbed Commando though (open matte) lookign forward to checking that out
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)
Anyone here by any chance own the French BD for Murders in the Rue Morgue (1932)??
May someone try to upload The Thing from the usual my-internal-organ, and see if it works? Thanks!
I asked. He won't let go of it. https://az616578.vo.msecnd.net/files/201...qa750d.gif
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?
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.
@Valeyard Some people will do literally anything to find something to get upset about
I assume some DNR to call it "remastered", but time will tell. It is scheduled to be released March 28th.
Seems as if Germany is getting DTS-HD MA 1.0 and 2.0 Stereo English audio on the upcoming evil Dead BluRay
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!
First John Hurt, now Bill Paxton... sad days indeed for all the movie fans, in particular Aliens fans...
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.
I'd imagine the more generic USB devices would work OK, is this for analogue capture?
mhmm.. are there any Win10 compatible USB Video Capture Cards and USB Sound (Capture) Cards that are not too expensive, and well enough?
my god, If i had disposable cash, I would get that Die Hard print no questions asked
I see E.T. is on eBay too .... http://www.ebay.com/itm/35mm-Feature-E-T...2431952009
An LPP print of Die Hard just came on ebay. http://www.ebay.com/itm/322431952009?ul_noapp=true Anybody wanna buy?
Over at OT you could contact Frink. He's a member there and might be able to help sort it for you.
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)...
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
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.
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?)
(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)
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
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

Laserdisc player + 106 discs including SW and boxsets FOR FREE!!! Belton, TX and nearby: http://originaltrilogy.com/topic/Free-LD...r/id/53885
Curious George is great, while Train is in a pretty bad status... have you the less compressed versions?
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?
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!
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.
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.
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!!!
Doh SSD last about 20 years when they are constantly rewritten. They are more reliable than mechanical HDDs
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!
I'm glad I upgraded to quad core last year, it isn't the fastest in the world but it is 'fast enough'.
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...
SSDs are definitely faster but they rarely last for longer than 3 years. New and fragile technology.
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.
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?
Thanks, it was really time... now I'm starting to cry, thinking about to setup everything right!
I knew it, I knew it! Even from the remote Italy, you could hear me giggling, laughing, jumping high... horray!
