Looking for RE4 open matte version (that I have not found so far...) I encountered a 3D top/bottom version, bad quality, cropped on the sides, which has the intro completely textless (we are talking about 4 minutes here) - and I don't mean only text credits, but also title animation:

I wonder from where it comes, and if someone else has ever found anything similar.

My name is Greg.  I am new to the forum.  I am just starting to learn about fan restorations and have already learned much from this forum.  I have no real experience with restorations but love movies and film and hope to learn much more here.  Thank you.

Yep, I'm doing another project, this time a standalone project titled THX-1138, based on the 1978 re-release cut of the film.

This is the trailer I'll be using to promote the project on other projects of mine. The actual trailer, as will appear on my projects, will look better than the trailer you see in the link.

This time, I'll be confining myself to a single aspect ratio--the original aspect ratio of 2.33:1, in fact. The primary source shall be the Grindhouse Edition sourced from an Italian print; where Italian text appears (e.g. the closing credits), I'll sub in the equivalent shot from the Blu-ray whenever possible.

In any case, here's a preliminary spec list for my restoration:

VIDEO
Resolution: 1080p (BD), 480p (NTSC DVD), 576p (PAL DVD)
Aspect ratio: 2.33:1

AUDIO
English (mono)
Brazilian Portuguese (mono)
French (mono)
Italian (mono)
German (mono)
Mexican Spanish (mono)
Castilian Spanish (mono)

SUBTITLES
English SDH
French
German
Spanish
Italian
Dutch
Finnish
Japanese
Portuguese
Swedish

The above spec list is not final, which is most true for the subtitles; I might have to drop some of the subtitle options, ultimately, and I have no illusions that I'll be able to get everything I want for this project. But I'll do my darnedest with what I do have.

I'm looking for an additional open matte sources of Casino (1995) - 16:9 or 4:3 at least to make high quality hybrid open matte version with BD overlay and no logos.
Now I have 16:9 HDTVRip Universal HD 720p with pop-up logo and 4:3 low quality DVDRip.

If a full open matte version of Blade Runner 2049 is out there, I was hoping to do it as one of my projects, with the 2D IMAX version (complete with the custom intro) on one disc and the 3D version on the other. Obviously, I'm planning to include the Atmos track on both discs. Additionally, I'm going to regrain the 2D IMAX version with 70mm film grain using a special version of the 70mm film grain I managed to procure from a helpful YouTuber in stunning 4K.

So I'm kinda interested in retro gaming besides movies and I've stumbled upon this unit - Framemeister. It does a great job for playing retro consoles on new TVs. I was wondering if anyone ever tried plugging in Laserdisc player into them? The unit itself is very pricy and I don't think I'll get one anytime soon.

Exactly as the title says. I'm determined to finally build a PC to at least get my own materials captured and do some editing. Ideally I'd like it to be able to double as a HTPC so I can watch projects without burning discs and for it to be able to run some games here and there.
Primarily I need to capture my LD collection. I've now got over 500 discs so that's a lot of audio detective work to do.

I've set aside $400 so far. Would that be adequate to build a decent editing machine for our usual line of work or is it going to take a lot more? I've never actually done any PC building before so I really have no idea what I'm doing.

Hello!

I would like to capture PCM audio from a Laserdisc Player (PAL), I had thought about this card, does anyone know it?, do you know if it's bit-perfect?:

If you know any better and with guarantees that it's bit-perfect I would also be interested. My computer is a laptop with windows 7.

Regards.

These are just some movies I know were shot Super35 or at least not anamorphic if they are digital, but I have never seen them available in Open Matte. These are some of my favorite movies, as well.

Session 9 - I have seen this open matte/cropped on Cinemax in HD. It is also one of the first movies to be shot digitally, which is interesting. I am not sure if it was open matte or cropped, but it was filmed 2.39:1.

The Descent - I have never seen this open matte, but I know it is not anamorphic, since the lens flares are spherical.

Doomsday - another Neil Marshall classic, also have never seen this in anything but widescreen but I know it wasn't shot anamorphic.

Sinister - I have this seen on Showtime in HD, but they only play movies in OAR. Pretty sure this was shot digitally like most movies these days, but it doesn't look anamorphic. How cool would it be to see the 8mm movies in open matte.

Go - a Pulp Fiction-like plot, but it has a style of it's own. I have seen this in Open Matte on Starz in HD, I think it was. It was shot Super35.

Kalifornia - I have seen this on Starz in HD in Open Matte. Filmed in Super35.

There are so many more that I haven't thought of. Most of these do look or would look so much better in Open Matte.
