  Hitchcock's: Rebecca 1940 Audiotrack DVD/Laserdisc
Posted by: freedomland - 2021-12-31, 11:08 AM - Forum: Requests, proposals, help - No Replies

Hey,
I was just looking on Blah-ray audio blog because I wanted to look if there is anything about Rebecca 1940. Good that I looked into it and now I am a bit concerned which audiofile is suited best. He clearly suggests that "the old R2 Prism Leisure Corporation DVD" is suited best for watching
So my question is that if anybody could help me in finding this particular release? Or someone has even access to a Laserdisc release. I would like to sync it to the carlotta film release. That would be awesome.

  120V/60Hz to 220V/50Hz
Posted by: allldu - 2021-12-30, 08:58 PM - Forum: General technical discussions - Replies (9)

So guys, I have an opportunity to import a Shure HTS 3500 from the US. But the thing is it's a US machine, which works on 120V/60Hz power. So my question to you - what would be the easiest/cheapest way for me to adopt it to the European voltage (220V/50Hz)? 120V to 220V step up would be a no brainer, just use the power converter, but 60Hz to 50Hz makes it a little trickier (at least for me!). I did a bit of research online but somehow did not get a clear answer about what power converter I should be using fot this. I also read that some 60Hz machines play just fine on 50Hz and I should not bother at all. Maybe this is the case with this one too? My limited technical knowledge prevents me from making any kind of (un)educated guess! Big Grin Any advise is really appreciated!

  Shadowlands (1993) - print sourced transfer
Posted by: NeonBible - 2021-12-30, 08:30 PM - Forum: Official and unofficial releases - Replies (8)

Caught this on TV today, and noticed the transfer was taken from a print. Specks, scratches and cigarette burns, as well as that typical look and colour.

I wondered if the Blu-ray is like that and after looking up caps it is not!

Here are some comparisons (BD caps are first):

Its available on BBC iPlayer to stream. Unfortunately they only offer 720p (in 2021 going on 2022 lol), 50fps and has a logo (but thankfully sits in the black border).

  The Ghost And The Darkness 1996 - Aspect Ratio?
Posted by: alleycat - 2021-12-30, 12:49 PM - Forum: Requests, proposals, help - Replies (41)

Anyone know what is the story with the aspect ratio on this? Theatrically it was 2:39:1 according to imdb, but on every home video release it has been either 2:10:1 or 2:09:1. I don't really get why they would change the aspect ratio like that? 

As a test here is a frame from the blu ray which is actually 2:11:1:

And here is the same frame resized to 2:39:1:

  Ghostbusters: Ultimate Collection 4K+BD

Now with the Theatrical Stereo Mix and 5.1, and here I thought Sony would never reissue the 1st 2 films with more audio options but now that Afterlife also been announced for the same day on BD/UHD.  But $150 though for new extras, I don't know. (BTW: Same 4K master used on both MI4K's and UHD which great)
Edit(1/1/2022): It's now $99, probably a limited thing.

  The Matrix Resurrection (partly open matte)

Watching it, I thought "IF it will get no open matte version, why don't we replace the flashbacks with the open matte version?"

  Scream DC
Posted by: alleycat - 2021-12-28, 03:06 PM - Forum: Requests, proposals, help - Replies (14)

Hi All,

So an upcoming project will be the uncut DC of Scream. I will be using the recent remastered blu ray, the Japanese/German uncut DVDs (hopefully using spoRv's PANup technique) and the audio from the laserdisc. I don't have the Japanese DVD in my hands yet but will do in the next few days, however I read somewhere that it was a port of the Laserdisc so I'm expecting the color to look largely in line with the laserdisc image.

Just wondered what people's thoughts on the color was? Initially I didn't think the Blu Ray looked to bad, perhaps a bit too bright, but on a few of the screenshots I can see quite a difference in blue/teal. Would you keep the blu ray colors or do a full regrade?

Thanks
