Hi all. I love a good project, be it a classic Chevy, fan edit/preservation or cover artwork and someone told me that this was THE place for at least 2 out 3 of those things. I don't have a lot of experience in film related projects, but I love films and I am a life-long learner, (as well as a bit of a smart ass), so hopefully I can learn some stuff and contribute when able.
My name is ThePlayer and I'm Italian. I'm new and I hope to stay here for a very long time. I like this forum because I think it's like a Pandora's box: in it I can find everything. I love to mux movies with italian audio.
In the last two years I released some movies (with Bluray quality): F.I.S.T, Death Wish Collection (Il Giustiziere della Notte) [at the moment I'm working on the 5th title], Waterloo, Julius Caesar, Mr. Klein (Alan Delon) and I'm working on some series like: Two and a Half Men (Due uomini e mezzo), Buffy - The Vampire Slayer and Malcolm in the Middle (1080p Amazon Video - Audio DVD/TV).
I like doing this because all I'm working on is still and unfortunately not edited in Italy.
I hope to share with you my works or just my audio.

I know for a lot of fans this is a big deal. I've read so many message board threads among various sites that focus on the AR on this film. The guy who posted that thread ain't getting any hits, so I figured this site has fans that'll take notice
Is anyone able to extract the background score for Scarface? I tried it, but the result still has some chatter echoing. Would anyone be able to clean it up?
I use a beautiful Sony XBR960 HDCRT which is somewhere around 1450x1080i. It can't do 24p nor 1080p. Everything else autoscales to 1080i, but the SD comb filter is truly amazing and all SD looks wonderful. The blacks are absolutely pitch due to the SFP tube. Color is deep and wonderful. It does have annoying phosphor trails from phosphor lag.
So am I nuts for still using this as my main monitor? I've never found anything affordable to beat it despite the age and its downsides. I'd love a high end plasma but they are hard to come by still in good shape.
I'd like to have something to do 1080p 24p to get the absolute best out of BD but have no idea what really compares.
For all our new members, welcome to Fanres, we hope you enjoy your stay.
This thread is designed for you to ask questions before you start posting. One thing I highly recommend is reading the rules first. It should be able to answer most queries. That being said there are still nuances with what we do here that well might need some clarification and this would be the place to get it. We have a great bunch of people here and a lot of good honest work goes in to the projects that are taken on by our members. Please respect each other. There is more than enough room for all to participate in and donate to projects if needed. Thanks to all my fellow site members, you all rock!!!
This is one of my favorite animated movies but it was only ever released on DVD.
It's kind of a very adult and bloody thriller thing, but the protagonist is a cat.
Doesn't look like the company that produced it is still in business either, so a Blu Ray release at any point is rather improbable. I think there may be some 35mm prints out there, at least for rental. Would be nice to have this movie in HD.
I don't really have any money nor scanning equipment, but maybe someone else can and wants to look into this.
