  Beauty and the Beast (1991) Work In Progress JP LaserDisc Domesday Duplicator
Posted by: WDW203 - 2025-06-12, 03:06 AM - Forum: Released - Replies (2)

This is project is sourced from the Domesday Duplicator capture of PILA-1232 that was uploaded here by archiver44444: https://archive.org/details/bb-wip-jpn-ld-ddd
The video was decoded as NTSC. The English digital audio track is provided both at 44.1khz for authenticity and 48khz for compatibility. The Japanese analog track was decoded at 48khz.
The captions were decoded as SCC files and converted to SRT. The video was loaded into AviSynth and processed with "bifrost(interlaced=true).tfm().tdecimate()". The sides were synced and
joined in Adobe Premiere. The video was compressed with Handbrake. The audio was converted to .flac with eac3to.

Hello everyone. 
I've recently found out about the wide world of fan edits and am anxious to see the improvements that have been made to some of my favorite, or least favorite, movies. Looking forward to some interesting conversations.

Some real good work going on in the fan restoration scene.
Glad to see people taking up the torch, when the official releases falter.

Keep up the good work!

  "Reservoir Dogs" open matte 1.78:1 regraded
Posted by: Beber - 2025-06-09, 02:30 AM - Forum: Released - Replies (8)

Hey, guys.

Today, I propose to you "Reservoir Dogs" open matte 1.78:1 regraded to the French Metropolitan 1.33:1 DVD.

[Image: reservoir-fiche.jpg]

It's essentially a regrade to the French "open matte" DVD based on one single correction that worked pretty darn good on the whole film to look close enough to the DVD and with consistency. The following is the one shot used to colormatch the whole thing:

BEFORE/AFTER:

Audio sources: English PCM 2.0 (Laserdisc), English Dolby TrueHD 5.1 (UHD), English dts HDMA 5.1 (Metropolitan Blu-ray), English Dolby 5.1 (TrueHD core), French PCM 2.0 (French Studio Canal original DVD - Dolby 2.0), French dts HDMA 5.1 (Metropolitan Blu-ray), audio commentary (Metropolitan Blu-ray).
Subtitles: French (Metropolitan Blu-ray), English (UHD), English SDH (UHD), French for commentary (Metropolitan Blu-ray).

  How to retain black level?
Posted by: Beber - 2025-06-07, 09:26 AM - Forum: General technical discussions - Replies (2)

Hey, guys.
When using a LUT in DaVinci Resolve, sometimes I get a dark grey shade of black instead of the deep black level of the original master I'm working on. It's rather obvious during credits and fades to black, especially when comparing before and after. So can anybody explain to me how to retain the original master black level while keeping the color correction I applied using a LUT?
Thanks.
