I suppose most will find out on their own, but OT.com is back up

This thread on reddit has been looking into OT.com. It seems the best post is by BlueSnaggleTooth359, in a mini conversation here https://www.reddit.com/r/fanedits/commen...t/jy6821r/

Cool. Anyone who wants to hook me up send me PM. I can trade invites for other trackers. Thus concludes my e-begging thanks for reading
You can ask, I'm not going to ban someone for asking that but we don't do ptp invites here
Does anyone know any estimated time of when ptp (passthepopcorn) tracker, will be up again? It's such a great tracker! The best really in my opinion. I hope nothing serious happened and it closed down.
I appreciate what the Tekno3d is doing and wouldn't be against trying his program but those normal prices are a bit steep
Tekno3d's doing a 1-week rental of that SDR>HDR program, $40, if anyone wanted to take the plunge
blu-ray.com goes offline around 1-2am PST every night for maintenance, then comes back
I saw a mentioning of a scheduled maintenance thing yesterday in the form of a black banner, but I immediately purged it from my head regarding deets LOL
One of the assistant editors on Oppenheimer explains that the 70mm 5-perf (2.20) version was used for editing: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Otk_P68zfM&t
@alleycat eagle eyed fans can notice the nuclear reactor fallout is still showing on the monitors in the Chinese embassy scene at the beginning, lol. I corrected that in my version
Yes the DC fixes some changes that were supposedly forced on the TC. Originally a major scene took place in the middle but it was moved to the beginning as the producers wanted to keep people interested. In order for that to make sense some chinese dialogue scenes had to be altered. The DC puts it back to the original order, along with some less significant changes.
I've only just seen that the DC is being included in the new Blackhat Arrow release as an extra, a definite turn-up for the books

Normally I hate Mann's tweaking of his films but I'm willing to see what he comes up with concerning BH.
this is a cool idea for b&w https://twitter.com/palettefm/status/167...00131?s=20

@Feallan I have a VCR that has s-vid out but its kinda broken, hopefully can see if I get that noise from it into the cap card. It seems like impedance mismatch, ghosting
Nightbreed UHD on its way from Shout, but only the Theatrical Cut is 4K and no Cabal Cut
So both the composite out on your device and composite in on your capture card are clean, but S-Video out to S-Video in gets you interference? Or is some adapter in place? FWIW when I was capturing VHS tapes a couple years ago, I used some chinese USB capture card and a VCR with SCART->S-video adapter. When the adapter was plugged in (just plugged in, not even connected to anything else) I got a lot of interference when capturing audio from the separate line out
its not, I said the composite out works fine. When I take that composite out into the S-Video in on the card, then I get the interference. The composite in on the card is a clean signal, even from S-Vid out from the LD.
Tough one here: getting interference on my S-Video in on my Diamond VC500 USB capture card.. The composite (RCA) in does NOT have the interference.. -Replaced cables, that didn't do it. -Moved the card around to different ports, nothing changed. -Tried turning off every device in my room.. nothing. -Uninstalled/reinstalled the driver.. still not resolved. -Tried 3 different capture programs. -Even replaced the cap card w/ an identical brand new one.. same problem. I don't get it. It worked a few months ago flawlessly in Win10 x64. I don't know whats changed?? Note: its not RGB aura lights (they're off just like they were 6 months ago when I last capped. Its not the wall outlet either, tried that. Nor the lights in the room.. same lights as last time.
@Bilbofett no, just AVTR 2. AVTR 1 remastered doesn't get a 3D version anywhere... yet!
the atmos is exclusive to the 4k, so if you wanted to have the 3D + atmos you'd have to buy it twice
if you can watch 3d at home then I can't see why you would want the 4k, as it's a true 3d built-from-the-ground-up movie. If it was an older film that had been 3d converted then i would get why you might want 4k as well
@stwd4nder2 that seems like a cash grab, and surely they considered it. Now u gotta buy both
It's good there's going to be a 3D blu, it was pretty incredible in 3D at the cinema, especially the underwater scenes
I hope it's not against the rules my asking, but is anyone at HDBits? I'm trying to locate a 4:3 Aristocats in HD, and apparently it's only there. (although I hear it's 25fps).
^ good article on color. cleared a couple things up for me i only half-understood

lol the BFI has one of the few IB techs left of Suspiria but is screening the DCP, whichever one that is
I think thats more a question of what program would support it, and then which codec container when you encode
Does anyone know how to display a 3D MKV file with both sides visible side by side?
Warm Gun, some DTS-HD 24 bits are 16 bits into a 24 bits containers, It's rare, but this error can happen.

If you use Windows, I suggest to follow these install instructions: https://phoenixnap.com/kb/ffmpeg-windows . If everything went well, then you only need to go to the directory with the dts track in file explorer, type in cmd in the file explorer address bar to boot the command prompt, then type in ffmpeg -i input.dts output.flac
Never figured that out. Too complicated. Would rather just keep 24-bit in DTS-HD then.
Noticed fre:ac reduces my 24-bit DTS-HD movies to 16-bit when converting to FLAC. Is that normal? Is it fine?
PowerDVD 7 (and PowerDVD 8 Ultra with some hack) were capable of.. I ordered a PowerDVD7 CD with key at ebay.. i try it.. its worth a try. Because I want to see the menus.. and not just be relying on ripping
its worth a try. Because I want to see the menus.. and not just be relying on rippingHope you can work something out MrBrown, it doesn't look like there is much software out there that can play HD-DVD, and any older software may have compatibility issues with newer versions of Windows
I do not use makemkv for ripping. I avoid that shady tool, as I do not trust it at all. I know I can rip stuff now, but I want to play it on my screen without needing to rip it ahead.
Sadly all my HD-DVDs are all at another Place stored, I only have the 5 Disc Blade Runner HD-DVD Set at hand...
Yay! I recently received a HD-DVD&BluRay Kombo internal drive! Now I am able to check out HD-DVDs on my PC! Sadly no recent Software Player to be found that still supports them playing.
