Analog Audio Capture |

Hi all,
Have been battling with getting set up for lossless VHS captures using a JVC deck with a built in TBC. Tried with Virtualdub but couldn't get the audio to sync so moved on to AmarecTV which seems to work fine. I've been capturing without deinterlacing then using QTGMC in Avisynth and the results seem good.
The only problem is the audio is just too loud! It's clipping and causing distortion. I've turned the volume on laptop my line-in right down but it doesn't seem to help. Looking at the display on the VHS player, there's a volume level meter and it look's like it's maxing out all the time. The only problem is there doesn't seem to be a way to turn it down.
Just wondering if anyone else has encountered something like this before? I'm wondering whrther running to audio through some sort of mixer with the option to lower the signal gain before it got to the capture card would work?

Johnny Mnemonic Extended |

This is going to be my next project, taking the HD Theatrical Version and inserting upscaled extended parts from the DVD. I've got the German and Japanese blu rays and I've decided to use the Japanese video due to the slightly higher bitrate and the fact that it was encoded by Sony.
Reasonably straight forward, just not sure what to do about the audio. The Extended Version seems to have only been released as 2.0 AC3. The German disc has all sorts of Atmos and Aura tracks for the theatrical but I'm assuming they are in house remix jobs. The Japanese disc has 5.1 TrueHD.
Is there a reliable way to remix the 2.0 from just the extended parts to 5.1? So they can be combined with the 5.1 theatrical from the Japanese Blu Ray? Or is that just going to sound off and I'm better just keeping the whole thing as 2.0 AC3?
Also looks like there was a Japanese LD of the Extended Cut, can't find it for sale but I imagine it's very expensive. Don't suppose anyone has that?
Thanks

Critters (1986) LD mono track (the 2.0 audio from SF release seems to be bad) |

If anyone has the Laserdisc and can capture the audio there is no problem with the sync, I can do it myself. Why?
Take a look at this interesting information:

Critters also has the 5.1 remix carried over from the New Line DVD release, but unfortunately the 2.0 seems to be a stereo folddown of the 5.1 and not the original mono (watching these through a SonyUBPX800 hooked through a HK receiver with DTS Neo 6 mode for original mono and 4 track stereo mix titles)

I was watching the first Critters tonight and at 19 minutes and 50 seconds the audio briefly cuts out before returning. This was with the 2.0 audio option on. The audio didn't drop out on the 5.1 track when I checked. I tried the disc on different hardware and got the same result.
I don't have the Shout Factory release yet, perhaps someone can confirm this.

Hello, everyone! I have been a lurker here for a while, but I am very active at some of the other forums (as I'd imagine many of you are). I like to keep myself abreast of ongoing preservation projects since clearly the studios unfortunately have no interest in doing it themselves. I'll jump into the discussion where I can, but my technical abilities are limited in terms of editing. Glad to be here!

Using 44.1kHz LPCM track on Blu-ray? |

Hi! I’m not sure but I think 48 kHz is required for Blu-ray. However, I tend to see that you share audio files taken from Laserdisc as 16-bit, 44.1 kHz (FLAC). I imagine I must convert the 44.1KHz (FLAC) to 48 KHz LPCM with eac3to. If I create Blu-ray, burn it and pop it into a Blu-ray player. What would happen to that new 48 kHz LPCM track? Any errors? The audio will play too fast?
If one audio is at 44.1 kHz on a Laserdisc and could be recorded at 48 KHz, why don’t you do that? There must be some important reason. Would some errors take place?

Need help choosing audio mixing software. |

I'm working on a tiny project of a live event. The source audio has environmental sounds and some good attributes, but the low frequencies are absolute garbage.
I was looking to mix it together with the official soundtrack to produce a richer mix, but I'm not sure what is ideal.
In the past I've used MPEG Video Wizard (which obviously isn't ideal), and Sony Sound Forge (which isn't the best for ease of mixing).
Any suggestions?
