Hello,

A few weeks ago, i found out, totally by accident the existence of the 35mm preservations...(fantastic thing by the way).
And then,by doing some research about it, i found out about all the amazing fan projects of all sorts, i had no idea existed. (i just knew about fanedits, but there is so much more.)
I spent quite some time the last few weeks between this board and ot.com, and i'am still amazed at the amount of quality work existing in this community.

I very much love movies in general, but i much prefer 80's and 90's movies...there were, in my opinion so much better than what we have these days...and that's the ones i grew up with so i think that count a lot in my appreciation...

For the moment,i don't have anything to contribute, as i don't have the skills or knowledge that some have around here, but i thought it would be nice to register and participate, and who knows one day contribute...

Thank you, and see you on the board!

  Bit-perfect LD-capture - What's necessary?
Posted by: Dr. Cooper - 2019-06-21, 03:36 PM - Forum: Capture and rip - Replies (29)

Hello everyone,

a friend of mine has been capturing LDs for quite some time now, but for now he's been using the analogue-out and captures at 48 kHz, 16 bit.
Now we're looking into options to "upgrade" the system for a bit-perfect capture, but we have no idea what we'd need to buy, which software to use, what settings etc.

First of all the LD-player is a Pioneer DVL-909 (the European model), I guess that should be OK. What else do we need now for a bit-perfect capture?

Thanks in advance! Ok

  Suitable ‘all-in-one’ device
Posted by: alexp2000 - 2019-06-16, 11:14 AM - Forum: Capture and rip - Replies (3)

Hi all,

Trying to find a capture device I can use for VHS as well as Sky TV programs and potentially Amazon/Netflix etc. Ideally something portable and not too expensive (within reason!)

Was looking at the Elgato HD S but wanted to see what everyone’s thoughts are?


Thanks

  A little Big Lebowski project
Posted by: deleted user - 2019-06-14, 04:27 PM - Forum: In progress - Replies (1)

Goal is a little blanket 35mm regrade again, with Cinema DTS synced (the latter is already done). I started doing it with these pics I got off of ebay but half way through the process I got a little suspicious. The framing is remarkably similar to that of the Blu Ray and rather clean and also hard matted. So my question is, do these look like real 35mm pics to you guys or more like a scam? Because the guy selling those seems to be selling thousands of them constantly, of course saying they are real, but I'm wondering. The soundtrack is also rather bright. The colors also look kind of low-contrast, which could imply a Blu Ray source.

[Image: 1-10.jpg][Image: 1-11.jpg][Image: 1-12.jpg][Image: 1-13.jpg][Image: 1-14.jpg][Image: 1-15.jpg][Image: 1-2.jpg][Image: 1-4.jpg][Image: 1-5.jpg][Image: 1-6.jpg][Image: 1-7.jpg][Image: 1-9.jpg]

For comparison, I found some other ones and at least some seem to have rounded edges and a little more believable colors, as far as that is recognizable in the bad pictures, and all of them seem to have a darker soundtrack and are a bit more contrasty, though that could admittedly just be the result of an inferior photographing technique.

Thoughts? Just don't want to waste time doing a regrade to a Blu Ray, heh.

  (Request) Jaws the Revenge (Japanese LD)
Posted by: digitalfreaknyc - 2019-06-11, 05:22 PM - Forum: Requests, proposals, help - Replies (4)

I'm told that the Japanese LD is the only disc that had digital sound. Does anyone happen to have it? I'm actually doing a reconstruction of the theatrical version and, although I know this isn't the theatrical version, I would hope that it would be more faithful than the 5.1 DVD/BD.

Anyone?

  AMD new ZEN2 CPU and NAVI GPU
Posted by: spoRv - 2019-06-11, 08:36 AM - Forum: Everything else... - Replies (8)

AMD come back with great CPUs, and quite good GPUs...

If someone here thinks about getting new CPU and/or GPU, I'd take AMD in serious consideration - actually, I'd buy their CPU for sure, best price/quality ratio at the moment, while I'd wait for few weeks for GPU.

Opinions?

  LD/various audio tracks of The Big Lebowski (1998)?
Posted by: deleted user - 2019-06-08, 06:13 AM - Forum: Requests, proposals, help - Replies (11)

Do any of you guys know anything about the mixes available of The Big Lebowski and which one is most theatrically accurate?

According to imdb, there should be a Cinema DTS out there I think https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0118715/technical but I was curious if it might be worth getting the audio from a Laserdisc as well. Do any of you have the LD?

  Project A Part II (1987) quick regrade
Posted by: Serums - 2019-06-06, 10:45 AM - Forum: Released - No Replies

2024 edit: Retiring this as the new 4k remaster apparently fixes this issue and is available for purchase.
Thank you.

Hello,

Just a quick regrade to correct the blue colour filter that was applied to the 2k remaster of 'Project A Part II'.

Otherwise, the Cantonese audio and English subs are as found on the Eureka release.

24 gb MKV. PM for the Mega link.
