  Laserdisc Capture Of Old Films In MKV Format?
Posted by: Rinal_Singh94 - 2023-08-15, 10:00 AM - Forum: Requests, proposals, help - No Replies

Hello. I wanted to know if there are a group of people here on this website or forum that do laserdisc capture of films in MKV format. I've seen LD rip of some films in MKV format on another website and I was impressed with the audio and video quality. I downloaded the CAV LD version of The Lion King and I love the 2.0 PCM Stereo and 5.1 AC-3 Dolby Digital tracks. I prefer it over my BD version of the film. 


I wish I could buy Laserdiscs but unfortunately most sellers don't ship to Fiji and another problem is no LD players. Even if I could get the discs then I won't have anything to play them. I know that some people on certain websites create a fund and donate to it for the 35mm scans. All those interested, contribute and get to download copies of those films.

I thought why not do the same for Laserdisc. I see people synching LD audio to Blu-ray here which means that many prefer it over the remastered audio we get these days. I mean isn't that what this whole community is about? To preserve films as they were released theatrically with the original color grading and audio mix. 

I apologize for any mistakes I may have made by posting this. I hope I didn't break any rules. I just want to experience watching some films on Laserdisc format.

  Final Destination 2 Original Theatrical Cut
Posted by: Red41804 - 2023-08-15, 05:10 AM - Forum: Requests, proposals, help - No Replies

All the home media releases of Final Destination 2 changed 2 shots during Evan's last scene where he is trying to get his ring out of the sink, and according to movie censorship, the rare US Promo Disc has the 2 shots intact, the shots will be upscaled to 1080p and will be used to replace the shots on the Blu-Ray. Bonus if the Cinema DTS track is present.

  Back to the Future trilogy audio mixes
Posted by: SpaceBlackKnight - 2023-08-10, 04:24 AM - Forum: Requests, proposals, help - Replies (6)

It's widely speculated the 5.1 tracks starting from the DVDs (as well as the Atmos) are ground up remixes from the M/D/E and soundtrack stems. 

One widely known change for BTTF is the scene where Doc is testing out the DeLorean and shouts out "You did it!". On the older TV prints, Dolby Stereo and (possibly) 70mm six-track, Doc's shouting has more energy and sounds severely distorted. The 5.1/Atmos has a redubbed take that is much softer in delivery and was probably recorded around the time of the DVD release as the mic audio quality drastically different. 

One report on the Blu site said the 5.1/Atmos for II has several SFX changes ranging from gunshots and other ambient sounds. The Atmos in particular is believed to use a censored TV line (no doubt by mistake) for the scene where Future Biff is shooting at Marty and yells out "Snot nosed punk!" instead of "Son of a Bitch!".

It's known that the LDs have the Dolby Stereo and some of these have been preserved, but did any other releases outside theatrical runs contain the 70mm six-track mixes?  

There's another rumor that some streaming/digital versions have a 2.0 track that is only accessible when the equipment is set to output stereo only. I rented BBTF on the now defunct AMC On-Demand service some time back and it used the old HD master but had what I believed was the Dolby Stereo mix, as it contained Doc's distorted line and different SFX compared to the 5.1/Atmos. Other places like Prime Video and Netflix had obvious downfolds of the remixes.

I'm not entirely sure if such titles like these just have downmix compatibility tracks or the original DS. It also depends on the retailer and which master they have. I know this is a real thing and I'm not going crazy because when Broken Arrow was on Starz Amazon Prime Channel and I played it on my ATV 4k set to multi-channel/original, it was the 5.1 mix. On my Win 10 PC (with stereo output only) and through Chrome browser, it played what sounded like the Dolby Stereo mix.

Video Halloween (1978) Criterion Laserdisc and synchronized mono mix (spoRv)
Posted by: mak100 - 2023-08-06, 08:59 PM - Forum: Requests, proposals, help - No Replies

Hello there!

I am looking for a personal project Halloween (1978) Criterion Laserdisc. I would also like to get the monkey track synchronized by spoRv for BluRay. This would be ideal, but it is worth alone with the mono track, be the synchronization of spoRv or the original laserdisc.

Thanks!!
