Hello all!

Is it possible to convert a discrete DTS/DD audio track to a Dolby Headphone track? Dolby Surround to Dolby Headphone?

If so, what software would you use for such a conversion?

Just finished to watch National Treasure: Book of Secret (note: NEVER SEEN BEFORE, unbelievable! ) and I noted this:



As you can see, it was printed by Deluxe in US and Canada, and by Technicolor in the rest of the world.

Now, I wonder, can this make a difference? I mean, US (Canada) prints could have different color, contrast etc. compared to others?

Incredible... it seems yesterday when I decided to register this domain, having in mind to use it for "something" related to fan restorations... and look at what we have today: a full-fledged forum full of great people and great projects!

Hey guys,
Thanks to userBigRob, I came here in the hopes that someone can help me out. So I've found the workprint of The Cable Guy and it runs approximately 6 minutes longer than the theatrical cut. Unfortunately, it's overlapped with a Russian voiceover with English audio in the background. I understand that's impossible to get rid of the Russian audio if it's on one track but I'm holding out hope that someone can help me out.

Thanks,

Just curious to re-live that IMAX experience.

... that i wish someone (Cameron preferably) to really invent (or just find, since we live in this ultra-modern times with advanced technology) the time machine and go back and film more scenes with, for example, Bess Motta. Yes, her ! I like Linda Hamilton so much, but her roommate has something about her that is hard to explain. I want to be transported to the '80s as well - Bess represents that decade in such a remarkable manner, obviously. So yeah... more scenes with her and Sarah, i approve even ''soap-opera'' style. Sure, Latin America (Mexico, Venezuela...) is specialized for that, but why not Los Angeles ?

Is there any way to fix this?

Hi guys,

So I was browsing through my Fury Road different editions collection, and I'm kinda confused now about the variation of mixes that can be found on these.

It looks like there are different encoding of the mixes depending on the releases, not all of them sounding the same.

From what I can make up those are the main ones:

- English Dolby TrueHD Audio 5692 kbps  7.1 / 48 kHz / 5692 kbps / 24-bit (AC3 Embedded: 5.1-EX / 48 kHz / 384 kbps / DN -4dB)
- English Dolby Atmos/TrueHD Audio 6077 kbps 7.1-Atmos / 48 kHz / 6077 kbps / 24-bit (AC3 Core: 5.1-EX / 48 kHz / 384 kbps)
- English Dolby Digital Audio 448 kbps 5.1 / 48 kHz / 448 kbps
- English iTunes stereo mix 192kbps AAC

However browsing the web, I find instances of those listed there and there:

- English Dolby Digital + 7.1 E-AC3 1536kbps
- English DTS-HD Master Audio / 7.1 / 48 kHz / 4687 kbps / 24-bit (DTS Core: 5.1 / 48 kHz / 1509 kbps / 24-bit) labeled as "original" so no re-encode
- English Dolby Digital + 5.1 640 kbps
- English Dolby Digital 384 kbps

What are they? I assume the last one is an extraction from either the Atmos or the True-HD tracks, but are the others encodes (or embeds) that appears in foreign territories? I muxed both the DD 448 and 384 in one file, and they sound completely different, the 448 one being superior sounding.

Both films being around 4 hours long - do you think that making them into one with duration of 3 hours at most would be a remotely good idea ? I think it would be interesting and i would have fun with it. It will be tricky though... because it is a huge production value difference, but at least it's only 7 years between them. It would not work, imo, if it's more than 20 years age gap.

My idea goes like this: after browsing this site for some time, i stumbled to 4:3 version of T2 but apparently T1 is only avalialble (good quality at least) at 1:78:1 & 1:85:1 aspect ratio (correct me if i am wrong). But anyway, perhaps the best edition would be in 1:78:1, so only T2 4:3 version should be set to 1:78:1 to match T1.

Now, the most difficult part would be to set the whole film to no more than 3 hours... so which scenes should be deleted ? Actually both films have some charming additional scenes which somewhat makes this mission even more impossible. 4+ hours is perhaps a bit too long, even for the quality film. 

So pretty much this version:

to be merged with this one:

- i really like those blue colors in T2 (which would nicely match with ''U Matic'' grade of T1, by the way) - they are way more appealing than those teal (or whatever-it's-called) that is a trend nowadays.

Definitely a team-work is required here.

- pay attention to 1:56 (Czech) - is that a similar low budget sound that T1 has ? Does anyone have that rare version of T2 in English?
Sound of ''T1&2 Merge'' can be in T1 mono style, but with corrections like this:

I would like to see your thoughts on this.
