Hello,

I would want to know how can I scan 35mm tape in order to get best quality (4k would be great, I have Epson scanner that scans at 3200 DPI, but I don't know if I can scan film with it).

I have no idea how would I get the audio out of the film though. Any ideas? Would it be super expensive and not worth the time?

I have a stack of old VHS tapes lying around that I'd like to capture. I don't feel like taking them to a professional, it would cost too much, especially considering how bad the shape of many of them is. Currently I don't even have the option to play them, because power supply in my old VCR was toasted a couple of years ago for some reason.

How good results would I get with a generic VCR and the cheapest capture card available? I mean one of these Chinese ones:

Preserving those tapes in maximum quality is not my goal, but I wouldn't mind having semi-decent audio and video good enough to see what's on the tape.

I checked VCR offers in my area and I can get Panasonic NV-SD450 for really, really cheap. Is it a good unit? I'm completely out of the loop on VHS.

Despite having a nonsense name like the previous movie, Ghost Protocol, I thought overall this was a pretty damn solid action film. Anyone watch this yet?

Taken straight from my FB page to here and written by myself. My hat is off to ALL our Veteran's

Quote:To ALL my fellow soldiers across the planet, alive or passed on, I salute you on this Veteran's Day.

I am honored to have served our country like so many before me and all those that will come after me. It is a calling for us. We answered it. We'd answer it again if we were ever needed in such a capacity. We go in knowing full well that we could end up anywhere and that it is possible we may not return. We accepted the challenge and the burden freely. We took the oath and never looked back. We are survivors of an honorable legacy.

We will always be soldiers, we ARE Veterans.

Be safe and responsible while honoring our troops.

NEVER forget.

I am working on the audio for my SitS project and have discovered that there is a couple of lines of dialog that is ONLY present in the French dub. It always bothered me that in this scene you can clearly see Merlin talking but there is no dialog. What makes this more interesting is the fact that even the French subtitles (on ALL DVD [both R1 and R2] and BD releases) do NOT contain these lines.

I have uploaded the very short clip onto youtube, with all French subtitles on-screen during the shot I'm talking about. Can any French speaker PLEASE transcribe those two lines for me in FRENCH so that I can include them in the subtitle track AND so that I can finally figure out what Merlin says there, as I can just use google translator to get it into English??

Thanx, in advance  

An old project I contributed to over at OT has been stalled for a long time for lack of someone fluent in Japanese...

The plan was to translate the entire Japanese dub track off the original Criterion Laserdisc. (Which has never made it to any other domestic release, AFAIK.) Only a couple scenes were ever translated as an extra.

Catbus and I would be most grateful if someone could help? I really want to know what the voices yelling over the closing credits are saying before I die.

Anyone watch?

Hi. I'm looking for a way to build my own film scanner, but I really don't know where to begin and what to get do build it. I do know that some people here, somehow, managed to do it or have at least the necessary knowledge to do so. Can those people (like Poita, among others) please help me with this ? It'll be very, very appreciated.

Thanks in advance

Does anyone know about this release or have it? I believe it is Japan only and probably on LD. I would LOVE to find it.
