Hi everyone,
I’m a new fan of film preservation and restorations, and I finally decided to join the community here. I’m especially interested in theatrical cuts, lost audio mixes, and anything that brings a movie closer to its original form. I've got a small but decent collection of physical media and always love seeing the work people do to revive forgotten or altered versions of classic (and not-so-classic) films. Looking forward to learning more, sharing what I can, and contributing where possible. Thanks for having me!

Hi! I enjoy watching films the way they were originally made!

Hi, I'm a big fan of old movies and old cartoons, I'll check out the forums and stuff. Hope you all have a good day, good afternoon and good night.

Thanks for the approval. I'm interested in the 'how' of the upscaling etc is done (will search the forum for this). My first attempts, using a basic GPU, were not quite what I expected. Plus seeing if some specific films have been done.

Hi. New here..

Salutations, everyone! I am a fan of the Dragon Ball series. Nice to meet you all!

Movie: Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade (1989)
Source: LaserDisc ripped by zero 1999
Synced to: UHD

Input: PCM 16-bit, 44.1khz, Stereo
Output: DTS-HD MA 16-bit, 48khz, Dolby Stereo (Lt Rt)

Credit to the original ripper zero 1999. Used DVD track for additional reference. Atmos remix not nearly as bad and out of sync as Raiders. 6 different syncs throughout the track. -21ms delay required when muxing. PM for link.

Hey everybody, longtime lurker here. I realized I never introduced myself, I just wanted to say hello, I'm Nick!

   

I have synced the audio from the 2000 Special Edition DVD of The World Is Not Enough (1999) to the 4K DEFLATE release. After the initial delay, the DVD was only missing 2 frames. I have inserted silence losslessly using eac3to based on this guide: https://fanrestore.com/thread-1587.html. I expect this track to be the same as the one on the Japanese LaserDisc [PILF-2842], which is Dolby Surround EX encoded. However, I have no way to prove this, so I have provided one track with the EX flag set using EXme, and one without.

Please PM me for a link.

I don’t own any home video releases of the Matrix movies (1999-2021) yet, but I was wondering if someone could rip the Cinema DTS track of The Matrix (1999) and sync it in DTS-HD MA (with the rear channels’ decibels changed according to the Cinema DTS guidelines) to the 2018 UHD and 1080p Blu-rays.

I’d like to get the synced DTS-HD MA tracks and mux them to my future MKV rips of the 2018 UHD and 1080p Blu-rays to replace the Dolby Digital 5.1 downmix of the Dolby Atmos remix as soon as I get the 2018 3-disc UHD release of The Matrix (1999), but that won’t be until after I get a refurbished 3840x2160p Windows 11 Pro laptop with a Generation 7 to 10 Intel Core SGX card, HDR10+ and Dolby Vision compatibility, and 3D video playback and a pre-patched non-USB-powered external “4K UHD friendly” Blu-ray drive (possibly for Christmas next year, since I’m planning on getting a few expensive things for Christmas this year).
