Hi everyone! I found you because I unwittingly bought a Teamblu bootleg from eBay (Jason Goes To Hell Unrated) which was literally unavailable anywhere else on blu ray - of course, I now know that it was a fan creation. After the dodgy disc arrived it was clear from the packaging and print job (and tobacco smell) that it had been cheaply run off in some dude's house.

The quality of the actual content was amazing though so I did some research and discovered this whole new world of fan creations. I had vaguely heard of people making their own Star Trek fan films but I had no idea that so much work on such relatively obscure movies such as Friday the 13th part 9 had happened.

I've found a lot these past months - from restorations to full new edits of movies, and there's a lot more I have yet to watch but I just wanted to say that after finding this site I've thoroughly enjoyed reading about all your work. It's also a really nice atmosphere here, and there's a lot of passionate and talented people posting here. I always look forward to checking back.

I might not have much to contribute but I just wanted to let you know how happy I am to have found you!

Do you guys know if any of the two scans was made from the IP?

Is there anyway to separate chrominance from luminance channels?
I want to use super resolution software to reconstruct lost chrominance.

I discovered this place on accident, but I'm looking forward to being a member here.

Hi there!

My first post, of many more to come, I hope. Following an invite from spoRv, I'm very much delighted and honoured to be here. I've spotted many a familiar face from OT.com, so already I feel right at home.  

I'm looking forward to being a part of this community and contributing in any way I can to help with restorations.

Few days ago Colson did this comparison:
http://screenshotcomparison.com/comparison/127071
and I thought: "well, yes, it's from DCP, so details should be better... yet, snow is not blue, but green..."
Then, today, watching the same comparison on my phone, snow is not green anymore, but white!

AFAIK my display (UHD FALD) was well calibrated... so, now, I am asking myself: is it NOT well calibrated - and colors are wrong? Or the phone display the colors wrongly, and the DCP snow is indeed green?

This is a VERY important question... because, if the former is true, all my projects are at risk of being wrong, color wise!

Hello everyone,

After the new year, Amazon US (amazon.com) started blocking Russian accounts while trying to connect free trial versions of Prime channels from their service.
In this regard, the opportunity to get free movies from these channels was lost.
As a film fan in Open Matte, I decided not to despair and ask for help from kind people)
In fact, everything is very simple, after registering at amazon.com and connecting the free trial time using the STARZ subscription from your account, I will only need cookie data, I will not need any passwords and logins, I will need a free subscription for about a day, after it can be disabled to not pay after the end of the trial period.
If somebody is ready to help me, then in the Personal Message I will tell you in more detail what needs to be done.

Hi. I'm looking for a way to capture successfully videos from the Boomerang streaming website. I tried both ReplayMedia Catcher and Internet download Manager unsuccessfully, Does anybody here know how to do this ?

Here's a link for exemple: https://watch.boomerang.com/watch/1/1 (be careful, only accessible from the USA only. I had to use a VPN to access it).

Thanks to answer

Is region coding an issue when ripping Blu-rays?

I am considering buying one to rip audio tracks (mostly original mixes) and archiving them for project use. But I have a mix of Region A and B (mostly the latter) discs.
