Noob question here. I'm working with an x264 mp4 as my source and would like to export the work I've done with minimal quality reduction. Should I export as a high bitrate x264/265 mp4 or a lossless format, then use something like Handbrake to encode it with x264/265? Thanks New to all of this.

Dances with Wolves seems to have two main color-timings: a neutral look that is on the cool side in certain shots and prairie-grass that is somewhat reddish, and a golden look that's quite distinctive.  The theatrical cut tends to come with the latter, and the extended edition, the former, although there are some releases that buck the trend. such as the UK BD of the TC.  LD ID8322OR has the golden look, with the occasional shot that does its own thing.








Neither look seems obviously wrong when watching the film.  The golden look has its charm though.

Hey everyone!

Trying to capture AC-3 sound from an LD and having some issues.

Here is what I'm doing:
*Capture AC-3 through my RF-demod into Reaper (48/16 WAV)
*Taking that file and running it through BeSplit to make an AC-3 file. This sounds great in Foobar. No problems whatsoever

My friend is taking these AC-3 files and running them through UseEAC3to in order to create w64 files. At this point, they are getting a warning that says "the track is not clean".

Should I be concerned about the "track is not clean"? Is that just a warning to ignore? Again, the file sounds perfect when the AC3 file is playing on Foobar. Any attempt at processing through EAC3to messes it up though.

Any help would be great! Thanks!

On Caps a Holic, they compare the Raiders bluray to a Japanese HD broadcast compressed in Mpeg2.
Anyone know where I could download this version of Raiders?

Hello Everyone !

Hope all of you are doing well.

I have been a member of this forum for the last couple of years. But now let me take this opportunity to say a couple of things.

First of all let me tell you that as much as I consider myself a keen observer and an addict to the Visuals / Cinematography, Aspect Ratio's, Pixel Resolutions & all the HD formats of our movies, I want to say that am really enjoying this forum and a big thanks to the admins for creating a place like Fanres where we can discuss, share, contribute & exchange ideas honestly as much as we can from our knowledge in creating an upgraded / better forms of our fan videos.

Secondly, a Big & Sincere appreciation to all the Project Makers of this forum for your immense hard work, commitment, patience & utmost dedication in producing an output which even takes days & months to generate a couple of frames.

Thirdly, thanks again to the admins of this forum for providing all the Restoration basics & methods, Simple and effective guides (all which are absolutely helpful) for the restoration of our fan favorite movies.

I've got a couple of movies in my list which I would like to regrade to a better version. In that process I'm currently going through all the guides provided learning one by one hoping to achieve a result & bring it to the place someday. 

Stay Safe Fanres.

I'm trying make my own Open Matte of 'Shaun of the Dead' from the web-dl and hdtv releases but the web-dl has the Starz intro and I can't seem to trim it so they both line up correctly.

Is there something I'm missing? Bearing in mind this my first attempt at this. 

I finally found a bit of time and finished the restoring for The Omen's theatrical trailer.

I've posted it on my YouTube Channel.

Enjoy

Has anyone got another VHS recording of the TV cut? Specifically the shop scene as the recording I’ve got at the moment is terrible quality and is blown out. The excellent Ridgeshark was helping me upscale it with the same process he did for his own Jaws edit and my current copy isn't the best. If anyone has a different recording, let me know. 

What's up, everyone. I found this place by searching for Cynthia Rothrock's commentary. I have been rebuilding my Hong Kong Cinema(Martial Arts)movies over the past few months. Lost the majority of my films(physical) during a move. Luckily I had a few backups and iTunes purchases. Seeing the passion and work everyone is doing here is fascinating so why not join. No idea how I will contribute as of now but if I come across any rare Hong Kong film people need I'll let someone know. I post a lot on Twitter on Martial Arts choreography if anyone is there.

Looking forward to chop it up with some of ya here. Peace!
