Hello people. I'm looking for a HD version of this Universal logo (from 1923 to 1927, by all accounts, it was in the DVD version of The Cat and The Canary -1927 -from Kino-Lorber). Does anyone knows if this logo is on a Bluray somewhere or in HD (1080p/i) form anywhere ? If so, where can I find it, please ?

Thanks to answer

So... I've discovered something extremely unsettling on a few Blu-rays lately and it doesn't make any sense to me.

The first one was my German copy of SNOWPIERCER. I was working on a sort of "ultimate remux" of sorts with my own newly-translated English subtitles (in both SRT and PGS format) and checking all the sources I have to ascertain which elements to use, and I was alarmed to discover that the German disc has exactly the sort of "PAL speedup" pitch shift you'd expect from an old-fashioned PAL (and thus 25 fps) DVD. However, it's got a framerate of 23.976 fps (24000/1001)! I thought maybe they're done something shonky to do with using audio from a master created for the German DVD or something (Germany being PAL etc.) and moved on with my life. After all, the Korean, American, and French Blu-rays were absolutely fine and had consistently lower pitch than the German audio. Weird anomaly, but no biggie, right?

The thing is though, now, I'm working on another one of my favourite films: NEAR DARK. I have many copies of this one as well: the much maligned US/UK BD, one from Spain, and the most recent one from France, as well as my old 2-disc Anchor Bay DVD copy, which is of course PAL (running at 25 fps, presumably with the associated speedup and resulting heightened pitch). The DVD has a director commentary that isn't on any BD release, so I was going to correct the PAL speedup on that and mux it into the French BD video track when I discovered 2 very confusing things:

1. The PAL DVD audio was not pitch-shifted upwards, as the music is in the same key as the soundtrack CD
   
   
2. On the contrary, the DVD audio is actually lower in pitch than all three of the Blu-ray releases, consistent across every audio track on each release. All the BDs have the pitch shifted too high, the same as German Snowpiercer!
   

Does anyone have a full screen theatrical version of Porky's and or the broadcast TV version of the film as well?

thanks

This thread is for original audio on Hitchcock titles. This has been inspired by today’s discovery: certain Hitchcock films were released in Japan on LD with digital audio as the last part of the “Hitchcock library” collection!

I’ve been able to verify so far: Blackmail, Rebecca and...Vertigo. The latter two I just unboxed and checked out. Vertigo is the same master as the analog only pan n scan USA LD but with a pcm mono track that sounds like the dvd and bd track but so far to my ears better...

Now to fly and get a capture device stat...

Hi guys,

I'm trying to track down a number of original theatrical mixes I'd like to sync to the UHDs that don't have them, and I would really appreciate this community expertise on the subject. Also, if you have any of them and are willing to share it with me, I'd gladly except the challenge of syncing them and share with everybody when done.

So here goes:

A FEW GOOD MEN - LD has Dolby Surround (original mix or the closest to it?)
SCHINDLER'S LIST - Cinema DTS (blu ray has DTS-HD MA 5.1, is this the original or near fielfd remix?)
BRAVEHEART - Dolby True HD 5.1 on blu ray could be the original DD (did it have DTS cinema?)
THE LOST WORLD: JURASSIC PARK - LD has DTS (original mix?)
THE BIG LEBOWSKI - Cinema DTS (blu ray has DTS-HD MA 5.1, is this the original or near fielfd remix?)  
SAVING PRIVATE RYAN - Cinema DTS? (blu ray's DTS-HD MA 5.1 is supposedly inferior both to DTS on DVD and cinema DTS)
THE MUMMY - Cinema DTS?
GLADIATOR - Cinema DTS, it's somewhere out there...
HOW THE GRINCH STOLE CHRISTMAS (Jim Carrey) - Cinema DTS?

Thanks guys, any help of getting a hold of these would be very much appreciated.

Another project complete. The blu ray has drastically different colours when compared to the laserdisc so I have colour corrected it scene by scene, using over 50 Dr Dre LUTs and slightly adjusting the contrast levels in Premiere.

• BD25 with animated menus that look and behave like the official Criterion discs, with a background video, pop up menus and resume function
  
• Video taken from the official Blu Ray, with scene by scene colour correction
  
• Original chapter stops used on the Laserdisc
  
• English 2.0 from the Laserdisc (Thanks Alexpeden and Zoidberg!)
  
• Two Criterion audio commentary tracks taken from Laserdisc
  
• English, French, German and Spanish Subtitles
  
• Theatrical Trailer
  
• Making Of A Menace: Introduction
  
• Interview With The Hughes Brothers
  
• Deleted Scenes
  
• Storyboards
  
• Film To Story Comparison
  
• Shooting the Korean Grocery Store Scenes
  
• Film School
  
• 2Pac Brenda's Got A Baby Music Video
  
• Raw Fusion Throw Your Hands In The Air Music Video
  
• Laserdisc Production Credits
  

Hi everyone,

I'm currently working on a Blu-ray-authoring with Encore and got a little problem with it:
Unfortunately Encore isn't able to handle HD-tracks properly and it also can't mix AC3/DTS with PCM on one disc. So I just used a heavily compressed dummy in Encore and replaced it by using Booshman's tutorial.

Everything went fine, but now there's another issue that I couldn't solve yet:
Encore only allows 8 audio-tracks, but I'd actually like to put 14 tracks on the disc. Due to the issue that track 9-14 won't be available on the menu eitherway, because they can't be linked in Encore, I just wanted to add them as "hidden tracks" which will only play by using the "Audio"-button on the remote when playing the disc. However, it didn't work. After burning the disc only the first 8 tracks can be selected and the others are just ignored. All four players I've tested don't even seem to recognize them, as they say there are only 8 audio-streams available.

Is there any way to get around this?

Thanks in advance for your help!

I don't think the original mono mix has been released anywhere on DVD or Blu-ray. So does anyone have the LD captured?

I'm wondering if somebody could help me

I'm looking for the best version of the original 2.0 surround mix of Face / Off.
I have a version on the R1 DVD but its DD compressed and I'm guessing the best version available will be on a laserdisc somewhere. 
Ive never had a Laserdisc player and thus my knowledge on what are the best versions of discs ect is zero!

EDIT: Ive updated the thread title to cover Broken Arrow and all the audio mixes in general
