Posted by poita several months ago on OT, but I retrieved it just today...

Hey some guys on youtube already transferred an ultra high quality copy of the 1977 theatrical cut (although as you can see they discovered it was actually Super 8 format):

Here is an odd one. I have some old recordings that got IVTC, oddly. It seems that every 15th frame is duplicated. Anyone have an idea how to easily remove those extra frames?

It seems there is quite an interest on obtaining the TC cut of this film in HDTV, but I can assure you is a real mess, and it SHOULD be improved somehow... it's on my usual project drawer, but I can think to take it out, because I'd like to do it before Team Blu...

Color grading: I'm thinking to use laserdisc as reference, what do you think?

Hello everyone! I've been a lurker on the OT and Cinemageddon forums for a while and came here after hearing about all the good work going on. From what I've seen so far, this looks great!

In fact I've only just registered on OT too! But I might as well go all the way, right?

Hello,

I've posted off and on the OriginalTrilogy.com forums for a year or so now, and when I discovered that a lot of film restorations were moving here, I had to be a part of it. So, here I am.

Hi, can a 23.976 FPS NTSC film that plays @ 25 FPS on a PAL LD recorded to DVD-R @ 25FPS be converted back to NTSC FPS by changing the MPEG-2 file FPS to 23.976 and adding a NTSC soundtrack? Thanks.

I was tired of the same old boring yellow smilies... so, I thought to upload new ones, black, and I made some custom ones... here you are the new smilies!!!

Maybe some less used smilies are lost, so if you noted something like :happy: in a post, please let me know here, so I could find a solution...

This forum was born almost six months ago... at the beginning, we were only a "dirty dozen" but now, slowly, we are grown to more than 250 members - we were more than 300, but a lot of spammers were banned lately, thanks Feallan!

Few weeks after we started, the site was around 21,000,000 in the Alexa rank, and now we are around 3,800,000 - not bad for a niche community like this!

Even if not all members post regularly - actually, we have a lot of lurkers, but I think it's normal for every forum - the regular users base is slowly growing, and threads numbers is growing faster.

We have some interesting features here, but not many use them... polls help to get an opinion; the Thanks button is a simple way to... well, say thanks to a member for his/her post; the Like button is not like fb, but it increases the member reputation; threads have rating, so you can "vote" it with stars, and that will help other people to know which threads are the most interesting... I invite everyone to use these features, it's an easy way to help others.

I'm happy Google (and other search engines like Bing, Yandex and Baidu) is indexing our forum often, and that new threads/post are available few hours later after their creation, but I'm a bit concerned about the fact it's able to read even the first post, while it's not visible to not registered visitors... but I'm glad the safe places are still safe!

At the end, I'm very happy to have set this little place for all of us, to exchange ideas, feedbacks, and have some fun together; it seems it's working pretty well - apart occasional downtime periods, "thanks" to the hosting provider... 

EDIT: forgot to mention that we also have respectable numbers about replies, threads and posts, and visited page numbers, in comparison for example to OT - which is, in a way, our "big brother" site (or father?) - and that means the interest is growing, slowly but constantly!

So Long, and Thanks For All the Fish!
