| Looking for the US DVD of F.I.S.T. (1978) with English Closed Captions |

Hey movie fans,
I’m looking for the American DVD release of F.I.S.T. (1978) starring Sly Stallone. This US DVD contains English Closed Captions (SDH), which can be accessed using a suitable decoder.
All European DVD releases are based on the shorter European version. The US version, however, is approximately 15 minutes longer.
In addition to the Closed Captions, the US DVD also contains standard English subtitles, which can be selected directly from the DVD menu. I want cc only but not standard subs from DVD menu.
Does anyone here own the US DVD? If so, I would really appreciate it if someone could provide me with an ISO file or the complete DVD structure.
Would anyone be able to share it with me?
Thanks in advance!

Hi
Small project. The old Sony bluray had LPCM 5.1 which I liked quite a bit more than the Arrow DTS track. But Sony was only theatrical so spliced them together to make a directors cut with more pleasing audio.

Hey, guys.
Since I just learned to deal with multichannel editing in Resolve, I just started this project.
Option 1: use the mono or Chace fake stereo mix for the front stage, meaning Left + Center + Right. Use TFM audio tool to generate fake surround channels for the Left side surround + Right side surround. Use the actual surround channels from the official 5.1 remix (editing out the most egregious modern sounds that don't match the front stage) and merge them on the Left and Right back surround so that I obtain a monophonic surround as would have been in 1984. Use the LFE from the Blu-ray 5.1.
![[Image: virtual-room.png]](https://i.postimg.cc/CLwJnZCc/virtual-room.png)
Option 2: the same as option 1 except keeping the real Blu-ray surround channels in stereo, so that I end up transcoding my 7.1 project in PCM 2.0/FLAC 2.0 or 2.1 maybe, so that the true rear stereo gets merged with the front stage, giving the whole thing a sense of stereo, and the AV Receiver will then make it Dolby Surround.
Option 3: the same thing as options 1 and 2, except using Brad Fiedel's score album on the front stereo and use the mono on the Center only. That way, we would have a better stereo feel in the front stage. Now here's the catch: I only have that score in MP3 @ 128 kbps. So If anybody can chime in to provide the score in lossless, that would be better. Of course, I suppose the score is fitting for a 24 fps film print, not for a 23.976 fps Blu-ray cadence and would need to be reencoded losslessly to match a 23.976 cadence.
For now I'm doing it with the French dub of the Chace fake stereo, but TFM, when doing its own fake spacializing thing, created a disagreeable echo on the front stage, so I think I'll change that with the pure mono on the whole front stage (L+C+R) for option 1.
@Stamper, which French mono track is the best technically and the best sync to the 2012 remastered Blu-ray with or without MGM opening logo? I already know for the English track it's the 1991 Laserdisc.

Was wandering around looking for stuff like this. Been here before but it's been a long time and pretty sure I never registered last time. Hope all is well.

| Con Air (1997) - WEB-DL Audio Syncs |

Been a minute since I've released some new syncs, mostly cause I've been backlogged with my discord and other project but I am here yet again to provide some good stuff. I've wanted to do something for Con Air for a while but just haven't really got to it until recently. Was a pretty easy going for the most part.
1. Original 5.1 Surround Mix (BD)
Con Air's Blu-Ray is infamously pretty terrible video-wise, however audio-wise it follows of the same trend as other Disney Blu-Rays of the era (i.e The Rock & Pirates of the Caribbean 1) in that it features the original theatrical 5.1 mix in PCM. I sourced this from a copy of the CEE BD but the US one is undoubtedly the same. It's a really great sounding mix and pares nicely with the remastered WEB-DL video. In a change of pace for my syncs, This sync is available in 16-bit 48khz DTS-HD MA 5.1 to all members new and old. I've decided from now on I will be rendering my surround syncs in DTS-HD MA for compatibility, this isn't a hard rule as there will be exception where i will render in FLAC (i.e Theatrical DTS, LD DTS)
2. 5.1 DTS Laserdisc Mix
Speak of the devil! This mix is actually kinda unique and I only really synced cause it had interested me and the wonderful @david49120 provided to me. The mix itself is MUCH louder than the BD 5.1 and I think it might honestly be a near-field mix but it still sounds pretty good and packs a nice punch. Available in 24-bit 44.1khz FLAC 5.1 for all members new and old.
Note: There's a scene near the end of the film with the character "Sally Can't Dance" where she says the line "Oh, men in uniforms". For some unknown reason this little bit has been removed from every home release of the film until the 4K Digital (the Blu-Ray actually had the "Oh" part of the line but the men in uniforms was cut). With a lack of a Theatrical DTS this line had to be patched back in using the WEB-DL remix audio, I have leveled the section to match both mixes so it shouldn't be too jarring. Interesting the DTS Laserdisc had an alternate line read for the pervious line "Ok Lady, hold it right there" so I tried my best to cut it to match the take from the BD/WEB (which I will assume is the theatrical take). This one little scene made this sync a little harder than it would have an easy breeze.
Till next time, peace!
