DTS-HD Master 2.0: L/R or Lt/Rt? |

Hello everyone,
I'm currently working on a Blu-ray for which I have several PCM-tracks and a few DTS-HD Master 5.1/7.1-tracks. Since my BD-player seems to prefer Dolby Digital or DTS over PCM I now wanted to try, if I can get around this by converting the PCM-tracks to DTS-HD Master first.
The PCM-tracks are Mono and Stereo. For the Mono it's easy - I have to select 1.0 in the DTS-HD Master Suite. However, for the 2.0-tracks it confuses me as there are two options: L/R (Left / Right) and Lt/Rt (Left total / Right total). I already looked at the Manual, but couldn't figure out what's the difference.
Can anyone explain me what's the difference and which option I have to pick?
Thanks in advance!

About Hard-Coded Subs on Star Wars Saga 4K |

The Star Wars Saga is now available in 4K on UHD Blu-ray. The US 4K BD feature the movies with hard-coded subtitles. But they do look like they are re-created from scratch - Sorry I can't post screencaps, somebody might be able to do so.
If they are indeed re-created, can we make them look better? They way too sharp.
Any thoughts?

I have joined the forum after knowing about it for quite some time...having more free time than ever in quarantine I decided to join and maybe learn to do some projects on here.
I want to do MCU IMAX 3D to 2D hybrid (non imax scenes from normal bluray and imax from the 3d bluray) projects.
Just want to make sure these havent already been done before?
And would appreciate any help,tips or guides on how to do it..
I may also look into spending time to do shot for shot left sidebar cropping like kk650 has done for civil war and guardians of the galaxy if someone can tell me how that can be done.

Would anyone object to using the 4k bluray of Star Wars ANH and 4k77 to create a 4k despecialized edition?
I know Harmy said he would get around to it, but... if I wanted to do it, would anyone object?

Looking for a decent print of A Better Tomorrow 2 with english subtitles for a reasonable price. I know of the Anchor Bay release as well as A Better Tomorrow Trilogy Blu-Ray Box Set. Do you guys know of a dvd or blu-ray of A Better Tomorrow 2 with good picture quality, english subtitles, and the original sound effects? I really don't know how much better the blu-ray quality is compared to the dvd or which dvd is the best in terms of picture quality

Harry Potter 1-3 Isolated Scores |

John Williams once again immortalized himself to a generation of young movie-goers with Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone, producing an effusive neo-romantic score at a time when that style was considered long-outdated and sappy. But as studios today try to make their music edgier, noisier, and more abstract, I think Williams's traditional score helps ensure that the original Harry Potter will be a timelessly accessible film. Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets follows the original movie stylistically (sometimes note-for-note; most of this music was adapted/arranged by William Ross as Williams didn't have the time to fully commit) while Prisoner of Azkaban takes a drastic left turn towards the weird, altering between sparse and outrageous underscoring as the scene demands.
Williams is one of the few film composers today who chooses (or is allowed!) to follow the action and movement of the film while still writing long-form self-contained music, and Harry Potter shows his mastery of this with great sequences like the Quidditch match in the first film, the flying car in the second, and the werewolf transformation in the third. I've edited isolated scores of all three so that you can see just how carefully he follows the action or dialogue of a scene with orchestrational details that might not come across in the normal audio mix.
For most of the project I used La-La Land Record's recent release of the three scores, but bootlegs were used to fill any gaps. I tried to reinstate any music that was "dialed out"/unused, so long as it seemed to make sense with the picture. Almost all the edits made to the music on the dubbing stage were recreated, so these audio tracks won't float out of sync with the on-screen action. For the first two films I synced to the Amazon Web-DLs and for Azkaban I used a copy of the Blu-ray, but I hope these files are in sync with any copy of the movie. Sometimes the music editor decides to cut up a piece of music or use a cue from a different section of the movie instead of keeping what the composer originally wrote. In these cases (such as the Shrieking Shack scene) I used the originally-written music instead and matched it to the movie as best I could. I think you might be surprised at how differently some of these scenes play out with the original music (Azkaban has a lot of these).
The only music I couldn't truly use was the shawm source cue in Azkaban where Mr. Weasley warns Harry about Sirius Black. I tried looping and changing the pitch of the small portion I had to recreate the cue but it didn't turn out very well -- you can be the judge. Otherwise the entire scores are presented here in fantastic quality.
All files are FLAC 16-bit; anyone interested can PM me.
