That's incredible, never happened before... the Italian multichannel track of Creep (2004) misses the front left channel! It's the same for two different editions in the AC-3 version, and also in DTS present in just one of them...

I didn't want to copy&past the front right channel "as is", so as temporary solution, I mixed both front right and center channel, to get something a bit different - I'm aware that's not THE solution, but still *a bit* better than plain copy of FR.

What I'd like to achieve is this: compare the English right channel with the Italian one; where they sound (more or less) the same, it means no voice are there; for those segments, the related part of the left channel would be used to replace the corresponding (faulty) right channel. This is the best solution IMHO. Still, too lazy to do it manually, so I wonder if there is a way to do that in audacity, or other free softwares.

Thanks!

Hi.

I'm a big Disney fan, and I have a particular interest in the Disneyland TV-series Christmas episode "From All of Us to All of You", which I'm currently doing a fan-restoration of. The episode itself has never been released on home video (although "Jiminy Cricket's Christmas" reuses many elements from this episode), but it consists of shorts and clips from films that are available on DVD and blu-ray, bridged together with original animation made for the episode.

This episode is very popular in Scandinavia, where it's broadcast every Christmas. Unfortunately, these broadcasts has been edited multiple times over the years, and a lot of the original bridging segments has been removed.

In the US, the episode was broadcast in three (afaik) basic versions:

Version 1:
1958 - original episode
1960 - rerun, with new opening titles

version 2:
1963 - reedited to make room for a "surprise gift" (Sword in the Stone)
1967 - new surprise gift: The Jungle Book
1970 - new surprise gift: The Aristocats

version 3:
1973 - reedited. Surprise gift: Robin Hood
1977 - new surprise gift: Pete's Dragon
1979 - new surprise gift: Corn Chips
1980 - new surprise gift: The Aristocats

My goal is to restore all the different versions of the episode. I have finished a version of the 1960 episode, but there's still plenty of room for improvement, and I expect to be asking for a lot of help with that

Just read an article that mentioned this film. It's usually 2.35, but there is a 16:9 version and it looks better. Anyone have a good cap?

I have both editions the SE /TE on laserdisc [of The Abyss]; they are plentiful on ebay. The SE I transferred to dvd at full bit rates. 4 discs one dvd for each side . My next goal is to up the bit rates to Bluray quality very slowly. Trying to figure out how to capture the screen with MSI Afterburner. Had good success with it on good prints. Tried bandicam but had problems with jutter. I have 4 laserdisc players. My biggest challenge is try to eliminate some of the analog artifacts from the laserdisc. ah just checked I did get it on to bluray looks good on my small 4k tv to 43 inch. yes I need to recrop.

Hello guys!

I need to digitalize some old analog music tapes (some audio dramas), but I have no clue on how to do that to obtain the best possible quality.
I know there are some cheap digitalizer you can buy from Amazon or someplace else, but the record quality is absolute crap, in my opinion... they are just compressed mp3 files.

Do you have any idea how I can achieve the best possible quality, preferable in a lossless format? I think the best way would be to buy an old tape deck... but then what? Which connection setup is needed? And which software transfers the input sound in lossless format?

I hope anyone here has some experiences on this field and could help me out

Greetings

Is it down at the moment.

I have numerous laserdiscs and original dvds , I would like to restore . I have been playing with software for years . I would like to ask if anybody has any suggestions for a good capture devise to transfer laserdisc to my computer. I do dvd upgrades all the time to blu ray but have stumped by poor transfer quality of laserdisc to dvd. Also where do you find the torrents or downloads?

Usually I use MPV as main player - it seems to have the best quality overall - but for testing purpose I use MPC-BE, for several reasons:

• you can go to a given frame number
  
• display more info on the video
  
• have mediainfo included
  
• let me grab screenshots without annoying play bars on bottom (as MPV often does)
  
• important: can play avs files!
  

I use IMDB daily, for everything - synopsys, list of actors, technical data etc. - but it would be nice to have an alternative; TMDB is nices and cleaner, but with a lot less info...

Any other suggestion?

I've been researching for a new monitor for some time now but can't seem to nail down a particular one for my needs in the $100-150 range. I was thinking IPS is a must for any of our site work but I would like a lowered input lag model as when I plugged my PS4 into an older Dell TN (st2410) panel at work once I was floored by how fantastic the gaming experience was. So then I thought about getting one of these newer TN panels that have increased color to better match IPS panels...but it seems every model I look at has negatives.

Does anyone here have experience in monitor shopping? I'm looking for a 24 to 27 inch monitor that is 1080p or above.
