Do anyone of you guys have the US broadcast version of Blade Runner aired on CBS ? This version was on the spleen last week but I did not have time to grab it and I don't no why but it has already been deleted.

Thanks in advance.

Tombstone Director's Cut HD + SD Upscaled (Quick Project v1.0)

Project Info:

This project attempts to recreate the director's cut of Tombstone using the old DVD SD footage mixed with HD footage from the BD theatrical cut. The SD has a lot of halos/EE which were mitigated with dehaloing. It was also IVTC'd, deblocked and re-grained. Finally, it was color corrected to better match the HD footage.

While the SD will never look HD, hopefully this project will make the SD footage flow better with the HD. There is approximately 5 to 6 mins of upscaled footage.

The HD footage also had some dehaloing applied and had it's levels boosted as it was a bit dark.

Note: Synced to the Vista DVD. I removed about 7 frames from the HD footage to keep sync since those frames were missing on the DVD.  I also capped the LD and will include the one missing deleted scene as an extra.

Video:
The US BD HD footage dehaloed and slightly tweaked combined with the Vista DVD's SD footage. With the SD footage IVTC's, upscaled and processed to flow better.

Audio:
1. PCM 2.0 Dolby Surround w/ fill in from the DD 5.1 (from the Widscreen Laserdisc)
2. DTS 5.1 (from the Vista DVD)
3. DD 2.0 Commentary (from the Vista DVD)

Original Thread Opener:
I assume the answer is no but was the DC of Tombstone issued in HD anywhere?

Hopefully this isn't "built in" so that it can't be fixed. I've noticed that polls which are still active display the notice This poll is closed. when a user is not signed in. However, when signed in it shows as active.

Polls should better show something like Sign in for this poll. as it's normal (not signed in) state. Then, when signed in, it will be shown to be active. When a poll is truly finished, then both these notices should be overridden by This poll is closed.

Hello,

I give you the following information, from originaltrilogy.com : 

You may have noticed in poita’s thread poita has the opportunity to scan the SE Trilogy in 6K triple-flashed with a damage matte. There is also a Phantom Menace print available that can be scanned at the same facility. To be scanned triple-flashed with damage matte would require 21TB of storage, scanned single-flashed can be done with 4TB. The prints (Phantom Menace and the SEs) and the scanner are only available for a short window, so it’s now or never if we wish to get this scanned. It is $400 to rent and ship the print.
Scanning will be about $2500.
If you’re interested in this please send me a private message, and let me know how much you would be willing to contribute. ?
Just a quick note: Don’t send me any donations for this, just pledges. If the project goes ahead all donations can be made straight to poita. ?

I was thinking about how many fanedits live an existence of low quality/SD and I was thinking it should be somewhat trivial to program a software that takes a source (like for example the HD version of a movie), analyzes it, then analyzes the fanedit, and matches the most similar frames and thus recreates that fanedit with a new source, without needing the original project file.

Of course that wouldn't work with rotoscoped stuff and the likes, but the technology for this already exists I think. For example dupeGuru does image comparison for finding duplicates and can do so across different resolutions and even with partial images. It expresses similarity as a percentage. Each frame could simply be matched to the frame that is most similar to it (with a quick pre-pass to find roughly similar frames).

Would probably take a few minutes or maybe hours to do the analysis-pass, but it should not be that programmatically challenging (for someone who knows C++ or the likes - I'm just a lousy PHP developer and PHP is too fucking slow).

If that effort was invested by someone one time, we could, with relative ease, restore a lot of fanedits to higher quality (and do some manual corrections where it didn't work). If that is in anyone's interest, anyway.

I found this list on blu-ray.com forum and thought it might be useful to know which members here own these titles and I'm sure there are plenty more that are not listed yet so feel free to point out missing titles. I happen to have only two or three from this list.

I was hoping that Live Wire starring Pierce Brosnan had received an upgrade from its VHS and early 2000 DVD releases but still no blu ray exists worldwide. I know... it's not Die Hard, right?  
However, I did find out that iTunes (US store) has a 1080p MPEG-4 AVC version available

http://www.blu-ray.com/itunes/Live-Wire-iTunes/12953/
https://itunes.apple.com/us/movie/live-wire/id307084825
Not that I know what to make of an iTunes copy once purchased, I'm not web download-savvy. If anyone knows, it would be nice to bring it out of iTunes limbo.

A couple of Movies from Christopher Nolan have changing aspect ratios. Some of us don’t like them and getting the movies in their OAR in HD was impossible. Well, at least I thought so. A few weeks ago I got The Dark Knight, The Dark Knight Rises and Interstellar from the iTunes Movie Store. Low and behold all three movies are in OAR. But since the bitrate of these releases is rather low, I wondered if it’s possible to recreate the OAR using those movies as a guide with the Blu-ray releases.

I actually attempted this a couple of years ago with The Dark Knight and this was way to tedious, as the picture needed a shot by shot adjustment. I don’t have the patience for those kinda adjustments, nor do I have a PC that can re-encode HD movie in a reasonable amount of time. But if someone wants to jump into that boat for this project, if this is even fully possible, let me know. I can then provide the 1080p iTunes versions for the project.

This is something that drives me nuts!

You get a project *AWESOME* and then you see it's in zip, 7z, rar or what not and it takes FOREVER to uncompress. The reason for this are wrong settings when "compressing" these files. Compressing a WAV file is fine, as it actually will save you storage. Compressing a Blu-ray is just a waste of time. You may a few MB, but it will take extremely long to compress and later uncompress it, even on a SSD.

So please, just use RAR and set it to "No Compression". The rar/unrar process will so much faster. People can enjoy your projects much earlier and wont need to take a lunch break for the uncompressing to finish.

Thanks
