  The Terminator (1984) German CAV LaserDisc

Anyone has this LD and can do a capture (Audio and Video)?
None of the DVD/BD/4K have the original mono mix. Only the 5.1 mix is available.
I'd like to sync the audio to the Blu-ray.

  The Terminator TV documentaries
Posted by: tanch28 - 2026-01-29, 05:58 AM - Forum: Requests, proposals, help - No Replies

For my The Terminator bonus features compilation custom Blu-ray, I have everything I need except these two made-for-TV documentaries:

  1. E! True Hollywood Story - The Terminator [2002] - https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0415312/
  2. AMC Backstory - The Terminator [2004] - https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0798001/

 
I found the second one on internet archive (https://archive.org/details/amc-backstory-terminator) but the quality is terrible. The first one was uploaded to Youtube but was taken down. The torrent is also dead. 

Can anyone share these if you have them?

  Looking for Drew Cumming's 1984 "Making of" The Terminator doc in good quality.

This TV documentary was properly upscaled and included in TeamBlu's The Terminator project. 

I am currently working on a custom Blu-ray which compiles all bonus features released of The Terminator (1984) and was looking for this particular rip.

The one available on Youtube is very low quality.

Thanks

  Alien (1979) - 4K UHD Audio Syncs
Posted by: izzybell - 2026-01-28, 06:13 AM - Forum: Released - Replies (3)

Decided to sync a few tracks for this movie

1. 2.0 Original Dolby Stereo Mix

Sourced from the 1999 DVD (thx @stwd4nder2), To my knowledge and according to my research this DVD has the highest quality version of this mix. Available in 16-bit 48kHz FLAC 2.0

2. 5.1 & 2.0 Sensurround Mix

Sourced from a bit-perfect capture of the THX AC-3 Laserdisc [8760-85]. There's a sync of this already on Internet Archive however the one review on the page states that the track is not properly synced so I went ahead and resynced it, Available in 16-bit 48kHz FLAC 5.1. Due to the limitations of AC-3 Laserdiscs the 2.0 PCM track has considerably higher frequency detail than the 5.1 AC-3 track, since I use Sony Vegas for my syncing it was as easy as replacing the AC-3 with the stereo track. Available in 16-bit 44.1kHz FLAC 2.0

3. 5.1 Sensurround Mix (Decoded Stereo + AC-3 LFE)

Like my T2 syncs I decided to do a highly experimental audio track for this film. Using my sync of the PCM stereo version of the Sensurround mix as a base I ran the track through foobar2000's FreeSurround plugin to decode back to a 5.1 surround track, from there I added the LFE from the discrete AC-3 5.1 and made the decoded surround channels duped mono (Edit: fixed this, I had originally thought Sensurround had a mono surround but it actually has stereo surrounds). This should be the version of this mix with the most high frequency detail. Of course using a Dolby Hardware Decoder would be much better than a software plugin but as I don't have access to said equipment this is the best I could do to execute this idea and for that it should be noted as highly experimental. Available in 16-bit 44.1kHz FLAC 5.1

Freely available to all forum members new and old

  Alien (1979) - Dolby Stereo Mix from the 1999 DVD
Posted by: izzybell - 2026-01-25, 09:44 PM - Forum: Requests, proposals, help - Replies (2)

The only copies of the Dolby Stereo mix of Alien I can find suffer from a variety of issues that I speculate might be inherent to the mix itself but I'm not sure

I have a bit-perfect capture of the [1090-80] CBS FOX Laserdisc which infamously has poorly mastered sound

"The Dolby A noise reduction used on the master tape was not decoded on one channel, leading to the odd sounding release. This was a problem with many LaserDisc titles in the 80's and was due to sloppy work at the mastering plant. Needless to say, the undecoded Dolby A leads to a channel imbalance which varies with level (due to the way Dolby A works) and prevents any proper decoding of the Dolby Surround encoded audio"
Source: https://www.lddb.com/laserdisc/49176/1090-80/Alien

I also sampled the PCM Optical track from the 35mm scan and it too was off balanced ontop of having typical optical audio issues such as popping and excess noise.

The only release that has the Dolby Stereo mix that I haven't checked is the 1999 DVD, which I do not have access to. If anyone on this forum has a copy of the disc they'd be willingly to share I'd be more than grateful to sync it to the 4K. Cheers and peace for now
