Hi everyone! Looking to find some awesome restorations. =)

I am so happy I found this forum. I love fan restorations and edits. Fans have such enthusiasm and love for the original content, and I am so excited to start experiencing this area myself.

Audio Projects -> Requests has a typo

"commentray" instead of "commentary"

Synced Cinema DTS to Kino Lorber UHD. Not too much difference, mainly just levels.

Output: DTS-HD MA 5.1, 23.976 FPS, 48 kHz, 16 bit, slots in with the UHD

Hi all,

I've been on a bit of a rabbit hole of a restoration and alternate cut rabbit hole for films recently and stumbled across some of the fantastic threads on this forum. It seems like a fantastic community of enthusiasts here so I thought I'd just take the time to sign up and show support to some great fellow film nerds!

All the best to ye all and a happy 2026!

I'm looking for the original TITANIC OG Cinema DTS untouched AUD files to mux with the lackluster 4K UHD re-release, as I was very disappointed with the Atmos mix.

Thank you in advance for the help!

The.Matrix.1999.DVD.Regrade.2160p.HDR.HEVC.Cinema.DTS.5.1.v1.0 (Experimental)

This is a regrade of the UHD of The Matrix to the old 1999 DVD. Using The Matrix DVD has less to do with any debate over the movie's colors, it's more about me testing different regrade processes.

The Matrix turned out to be a terrible test project. Even though the UHD's grading isn't as extreme as the BD's grade, it still graded to within an inch of its life. That makes it is very difficult to pull it back to something looking like the DVD.

Its not 100%, still some artifacts, some highlight and luma issues but slowly working out the bugs. I think I have progressed far enough to take what I've learned put it into this project and see how it works. Having said that I do expect some errors in the final product while I sort things out.

Video:
The UHD regraded to the 1999 DVD in HDR with a little contrast added.

Audio: (Tentative)

Coming Soon

Hello everyone!

I've been a huge collector of the original Star Wars and Indiana Jones home video releases, as well many other films that didn't got a "proper" treatment faithful to the OG Cinema, either on BD or on 4K UHD.

I'm here to support this wonderful community and their hard efforts.

Hi Everyone
I would appreciate someone to point me in the right direction here to begin my own project

I have my DVD of Fear of a Black Hat

I would like to Rip to PC and convert to 1080p OR 4k uhd with the intention of burning to BD-R with menus etc

Any help would be great

Thanks for taking the time to read this.
