Yesterday I tried to watch an HDR UHD demo, encoded in HEVC, and the video stuttered with MPC-HD and other players (but first decoded HDR properly).

My CPU is an Intel i7-4770 and the GPU is a GeForce GTX 760... yes, not the latest top tech, but I was sure they was good enough... I was wrong, it seems.

So, would a "simple" GPU upgrade solve the problem? Or I should upgrade to a better CPU? (not using my actual motherboard, I'm aware)
Or, I need both new CPU and GPU?

Becuase I'm thinkering the idea of upgrading to another brande new used PC... AMD Ryzen or ThreadRipper, perhaps?

Hi, I want to synch a dolby track from a DVD with a video from a blu ray.

The Dolby track have the good speed, but not the same length.

Can I add or remove silence of the track, without re-encoding (like smart rendering), and keeping the surround encoding?

If I do not have the choice to re-encode, do I need to mount the bitrate (192 to 224)? I imagine that all softwares do not have the same algorithm of compression, and if I add bitrate, I make sure to keep my quality, right?
Thank you in advance, and sorry for my bad english

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!
