  What's a simple way to re-encode DD stereo in DD 5.1?
Posted by: Warm Gun - 2022-02-07, 07:55 AM - Forum: Audio and video editing - Replies (8)

I need to change a 192 kbps Dolby Digital 2.0 track to 448 kbps DD 5.1. I looked around for a way to do that a while back, but couldn't find a good program.

It's for my Aeon Flux DVDs. When ripped, the opening and endings (credits) are separate files. I know how to link them so that the separate files play together during playback. In MKVMerge, you go to Output > Precious/Next Segment UID. The problem is the 5.1 tracks. The OP and ED are only in stereo. When I link them, my receiver automatically switches from stereo to 5.1 during playback, meaning when the OP ends and the episode begins. But it doesn't work if I'm upmixing the DD with Dolby Surround. The sound just becomes silent after the switch. The 5.1 also incorrectly shows as 192 kbps stereo unless I go into Properties, because my media player is going off what the first of the linked files shows, which doesn't matter but bugs me anyway.

  Conan The Barbarian (1982) - Theatrical Trailer | Fan Remaster | HD | Scope
Posted by: bendermac - 2022-02-05, 10:17 PM - Forum: Released - No Replies

This is an old project. I finished this 11 years ago, but never posted the HD version of. The reason is the title animation at the end of the trailer. I never found a good version that can be used for this project. But maybe we come across another 35mm print that's in better shape and the sequence can used from it.
I usually create a new trailer credits card. But I didn't do it here. Having very clean credits on a crappy title wouldn't match well or I was just lazy do sit down and create a new one at this time. Pick the excuse you like most Tongue Cool

Anyway, I hope you'll enjoy it regardless Big Grin

  The Karate Kid (1984) - Theatrical Trailer | HD | Fan Remaster
Posted by: bendermac - 2022-02-04, 09:12 PM - Forum: Released - Replies (2)

There is a HD version of the trailer available and it's actually Okay for what it is. However Sony decided to change the trailer credits with updated logos and copyright info. This can't be considered "Original Trailer" anymore Tongue
So I made a re-edit using the Blu-ray. Credits & Title are done from scratch and matched. To get the proper trailer credits look, I've used the trailer found on DVD.

  Problem burning 50GB BD-R discs
Posted by: titanic - 2022-02-02, 09:30 PM - Forum: Converting, encoding, authoring - Replies (10)

Hello.
I've encountered a problem, as the thread title says, and I don't know what to do... Sad
First of all, I have this BD-Rom
https://www.ebay.com/itm/264849119450.

I was able to burn mkv films in 25GB BD-R discs, just fine. (about 10 of them).
Now, I'm trying to burn bigger mkv files in 50GB discs and it fails. (I have purchased Verbatim BD-Rs)
I've used both Nero and ImgBurn.
The results:

Nero - 6x speed - burn unsuccessful
Nero - 4x speed - burn successful, data verification failed (of course the movie wouldn't play)
ImgBurn - 2x speed - burn successful, data verification failed

Does anyone have any suggestions?
I really would need the hard disc space, by burning these large mkv files.
(I want to burn other data too, but I haven't tried)

I ripped the 2.0 Dolby Digital track from the region 1 special edition DVD if anyone is interested in syncing it up to the UHD.

  Killing Zoe Project
Posted by: alleycat - 2022-01-30, 11:39 AM - Forum: Requests, proposals, help - Replies (7)

This started as an audio project but I'm not 100% about the color. Some screenshots below, LD top, then R1 DVD then French Blu Ray. 

When I first watched the blu ray I felt it came across too teal in places, if you look at the second set of images the background is very blue in the DVD and LD but teal in the Blu. Same with the pillow in the first shot. However the LD looks too red to me. DVD is brighter than the Blu Ray but apart from those blue shots they don't differ too much in terms of color. 

So personally I'm thinking it might be best to stick with the colors from the blu ray, maybe using the DVD color in some of those blue scenes. Possibly brightening up the blu ray a little. 

Just wondered what others thought? 

Cheers

  Heathers (1989) - Theatrical Trailer | Fan Remaster | HD
Posted by: bendermac - 2022-01-30, 01:31 AM - Forum: Released - Replies (2)

Since it's 1st release on DVD the movie's trailer always looked like shit. The movie had a few releases on Blu-ray and none of them had the trailer in better quality then what was found on the DVD. So I did my "restoration".

A 100% recreation of the original theatrical trailer in true high def.
