Does anyone have any preservations of these? I see many of them by a Jonathan Froes on youtube but not sure if he's here or if he'd share the original scans (as opposed to the youtube compressions).

Can we agree that 4k BD is perfect home video release ever for 1.85:1?

But what about a Full Frame...

Quote:Do you see how much is lost? Sure, the whole frames were not intended to be seen by us, "mere" mortals (read: director's composition and such...) but hey, if they are available somehow, why can't we have a chance to see them?

Quote:...Predator is still available in 35mm; if someone would like to contribute to buy, ship, and transfer it, an interesting restoration is possible...

Quote:I know where you can get 4K scans films, but the price is not small, an average of $ 1500 per film.

Saw this last night, looked great and the soundtrack sounded pretty original.
Plus bonus original Warner logo.
Cinemas in the UK are showing it this weekend if anyone has one nearby showing it.

I'm looking for English subtitle for a movie called Mother's Boy (1994) starring Jamie Lee Curtis.
Does someone have DVD of this movie which included English subtitle respectively a ripped subtitle?

Hello from Scotland.

I stumbled across this brillant forum with all of these amazing (and important) film preservation projects. I am blown away with the effort and craft that goes into 'fixing' those original theatrical versions.

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

I have a fast film collection (also film scores) that hopefully will come in handy to all members while fixing/restoration/re-editing of movies.

Thank you.

Hi Fan Ress

Ive left the Thread title pretty vague to open up the discussion as wide as possible.

The idea is to recommend setups for UHD playback on various Budgets and Equipment.

Ill start with my situation as it would be the start of an upgrade path.....

Ive currently not got a HDR compatable TV.
I'm also still in the 1080p relm with a fairly standard budget LG screen and 720p projector.

I'm currently on the look out for more budget orientated native 10bit panel in the 65 inch range, but Im being patient

Ive been watching rips using MPC and MADVR (latest Version) and I'm happy with the results, the added information (Resolution and Colour) even downscaled look better than my Bluray counterpart in many cases so Id like to get a more legit setup so I can start playing UHD discs.

Ive looked at getting a UHD drive for my PC but don't have the appropriate Intel processor that PowerDVD requires, and I'm also unsure about the HDR to SDR tonemapping in this environment.

That had me looking at The Sony UBPX700 or an Xbox One S which again I'm unable to dig up much information on is conversion quality (although the Sony Player is supposed to do a good job).

What do people here recommend and what are your setups?

Hey, guys.
Having an LCD for monitor and an OLED for TV, videos look quite different, so I'm considering buying a calibration probe so that both would look okay. How did you guys calibrate your PC monitors and TVs? Did you use a calibration probe and, if so, which one? I've been scrolling on this site (in French: https://www.guide-gestion-des-couleurs.c...metre.html), and I'm confused. Is there a difference between a PC monitor and a TV calibrationwise or do these probes work for both? I understand that these come with a calibration software, so a PC would have to be connected to the TV, which is okay for me.

So I have a Prores clip in Resolve I've done some work on, now its time to export. My goal is to get it encoded to 264, but the built in one doesnt leave much room for customizing. What's my best option for export for encoding with Simple x264 with the preferred settings? I was looking at the Uncompressed Quicktime formats but there's quite a few options and I wasn't sure what to pick.

I've got the occasion to capture the Italian laserdisc; sadly, it has the last few minutes of side A corrupted... apart that, it is open matte 1.33:1 (more or less); I've noted it has quite a lot more image on top, while missing on bottom (in comparison to DVD); and, no pink tennis ball; so, why don't make an UAR regraded version?

status: prealpha (I can't get rid of the blueish blanket on the left side of the laserdisc - yet, at least)

Opinions?

(note: I know that I have at least another project to make right now, indeed this would eventually start later)

I don't have any of these regrades, I have only found these screenshots to show how it looks.
