just an idea

I presume that a lot of the community here keep these amazing restorations on hard drives which is easier to stream.

I'm in the process of building of a media server (slow process due to funds sadly) but thanks to a friend or two, I do manage to get some of these projects burnt on disc. 

but to be honest, some of these efforts are so good that I feel that they deserve a place in my movie collection. having it in a case with some custom artwork makes it a bit more special. 

So I was thinking it would perhaps be a good idea to have a section dedicated to artwork for such releases or custom artwork in general and some tips on printing. It might even bring some photoshop talent to the boards as well with the same interests in preserving film in the form of original posters etc

Independent to my Police Story 3 correction, I've been asked by offer some input on my friend's reconstruction of 'First Strike'. It's going well, except the video has this kind of 'strobing' (is there a technical term for this?) on and off throughout.




Is there a program/filter we could use that'll correct this (or at least reduce the effect)? PC or Mac, both are fine.

Any information/help is greatly appreciated

Do you guys know if any of the two scans was made from the IP?

Is there anyway to separate chrominance from luminance channels?
I want to use super resolution software to reconstruct lost chrominance.

I discovered this place on accident, but I'm looking forward to being a member here.

Hi there!

My first post, of many more to come, I hope. Following an invite from spoRv, I'm very much delighted and honoured to be here. I've spotted many a familiar face from OT.com, so already I feel right at home.  

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

Few days ago Colson did this comparison:
http://screenshotcomparison.com/comparison/127071
and I thought: "well, yes, it's from DCP, so details should be better... yet, snow is not blue, but green..."
Then, today, watching the same comparison on my phone, snow is not green anymore, but white!

AFAIK my display (UHD FALD) was well calibrated... so, now, I am asking myself: is it NOT well calibrated - and colors are wrong? Or the phone display the colors wrongly, and the DCP snow is indeed green?

This is a VERY important question... because, if the former is true, all my projects are at risk of being wrong, color wise!

After the new year, Amazon US (amazon.com) started blocking Russian accounts while trying to connect free trial versions of Prime channels from their service.
In this regard, the opportunity to get free movies from these channels was lost.
As a film fan in Open Matte, I decided not to despair and ask for help from kind people)
In fact, everything is very simple, after registering at amazon.com and connecting the free trial time using the STARZ subscription from your account, I will only need cookie data, I will not need any passwords and logins, I will need a free subscription for about a day, after it can be disabled to not pay after the end of the trial period.
If somebody is ready to help me, then in the Personal Message I will tell you in more detail what needs to be done.
