  Memento (2000) (Chronological Edit)

A HD version would be nice. Can this be preserved, it was released on DVD and not on BD.

  The dreaded 'Near Field Mix'
Posted by: zoidberg - 2017-06-07, 09:40 PM - Forum: General technical discussions - Replies (9)

Many of you guys and gals have probably seen this already on your travels but I thought I'd share this entertaining thread from Film-Tech:

http://www.film-tech.com/ubb/f16/t001428.html

A guy mentions his work on Home Theater Mixes and gets roasted for it   Big Grin

At the end of it all, no one is any the wiser about anything.

  Confirm Defaults Are HTTPS: Rather Than HTTP:
Posted by: BronzeTitan - 2017-06-07, 07:06 PM - Forum: Bug reports and suggestions - Replies (3)

In posting a rather humorous little video from YouTube, the default for inserting it into the post was for HTTP. Since FR upgraded to HTTPS, references (pictures, video) with HTTP: do not show the media, but only the links. With the defaults updated, they would at least serve as a warning for the unwary poster of the proper type to use. Perhaps adding some code to change any HTTP entry to HTTPS would work as well? (Keep in mind that while most website will respond to HTTPS, some do not support HTTPS, which would result in nothing or an error.)

There might be other instances, in different areas of the forum, that have not been updated to HTTPS defaults and probably those should be updated, too.

Or, as the Hungarian translation book would say, "I will not buy this record. It is scratched."   Wink

  Misinterpretated Text-Conversion-To-Smileys
Posted by: BronzeTitan - 2017-06-06, 05:41 PM - Forum: Bug reports and suggestions - Replies (2)

I came across this ...

:victory: [Image: confused.png]uperman: :victory:

... which reminded me of the same thing I had to deal with by Disable Smilies on a particular post.

Apparently, the algorithm used to determine text combinations for conversion to smiley graphics doesn't include assuring that the smiley text is completely isolated by spaces. The above example -- confused_smilies uperman: -- was from a colon, followed by the word "superman", followed by a colon. The present algorithm neglects a full-isolation check and so takes the starting colon and the first letter "s" (or "S") and immediately converts it to a smiley without consideration of the rest of the word from which it was taken.

BTW, this may have something to do with my seeing deletions, by the Delete and/or Backspace  keys, getting stuck in place (and not deleting anything). Maybe, too, it could be problems with copying a word that includes the preceding space and pasting it elsewhere but with that preceding space not pasting, too. It could be lower-level editing and/or parsing bugs. Worse still is that they are not consistently repeatable.   Cry

  Highlander 3 - US Theatrical Version
Posted by: Bigrob - 2017-06-05, 07:08 PM - Forum: Everything else... - Replies (1)

Hoping someone can clarify something.

From my understanding, Highlander 3 got two releases on home video. A directors cut with upgraded special effects and an international cut.

Was there ever a US theatrical cut? If so, was it released anywhere?

  Terminator 2: Judgment Day (Special Edition) (1991) 4X3 DVD
Posted by: deblock - 2017-06-05, 04:59 PM - Forum: Official and unofficial releases - Replies (16)

Hi, was there a T2 (Special Edition) 4X3 DVD ever released?

There is a bad rip/capture of T2 in XviD in NTSC resolution, but PAL fps and the fps goes down to ~12 fps for some parts and I would like to know the source for this rip/cpature. Anyone know?

From the file, the resolution seems DVD quality. Thank you.

  Article on videotapes decay and preservation

I thought this would be an interesting read for some of us: Videotapes are becoming unwatchable as archivists work to save them
http://www.npr.org/sections/alltechconsi...-save-them

They mention a tape preservationist group, anyone has ever heard of them?

  Showgirls - Improved Open Matte
Posted by: Colek - 2017-06-04, 07:10 PM - Forum: In progress - Replies (32)

This is just a quick project that apperantly will take me only few hours to finish, but decided to share.

Simply took the 720p open matte HDTV copy of Showgirls available, upscaled it to 1440p, filtered, sharpened, denoised, downscaled to 1080p, overlaid with clear Bluray copy (with reduced Chroma noise).

This just needs to be rendered now with .avisynth script and it's ready, except it'll take ~20 hours to do, so I am not in rush with doing so now Tongue

  Twin Peaks

Has anyone here been watching the Twin Peaks revival? I think it's pretty good so far (although perhaps a little indulgent in the weirdness).
