Don't forget the one clip in mcgonagalls office will need just a little bit of audio work.
I was thinking actually that this would be a good chance to show off the Cinema DTS track.

https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B27FSJx...sp=sharing (This is just a quick fade in adjustment + the extra frames needed at the beginning to sync with the bluray audio.)
In my quick glance through on film one after the other script, I missed a few issues in the last few minutes of the film. Here is a script to fix it. There is a missing frame between end 1 and end 2, as well as another between end 2 and end 3. If anyone on here has PFclean, it has a missing frame restore function I believe that could work in those two cases. Code: LoadPlugin("C:\Users\night\Desktop\dgdecnv\DGDecodeNV.dll")
open=AviSource("E:\hp1open2.avi")
base=DGSource("E:\hpss.dgi", FieldOP=0)

Thanks for the script, and the opening! Is that from another HP film?
It seems there are more than one missing frames where you have noted, and at least in another place - near the end, when Dumbledor has his speech; a direct comparison with the BD is needed. By the way, for few missing frames, Avisynth could make a decent job.

No, the opening was just a quick fix of the fade in from the file, with a frame count matched to the bluray.

Just curious what timeframe are you looking at to release these?

Soon, really soon! I'm working right now on HP1, put it in sync with BD and correct eventual problems (missing frames to reconstruct primarily).
Opening credit: I tried to "patch" the BD image over the open matte one, but colors are definitely too different - even when color matched, the difference is too noticeable. I tried to use the BD cropped, but title was too big IMHO. So, I've decided to leave the central part untouched, and stretched just the borders; result isn't perfect, but really watchable and, as it last for very few seconds, while the most part of the image is dark, you could eventually notice the stretched clouds only when a thunder illuminate them; judge for yourself:

I'm debating what I think, I'll let you know when I've watched it on my pc. Hard to judge what I think since I knew what i was trying to ignore.
An open matte trailer might do the trick - does anyone know if there were any? Another option might be if the title is open matte on the full screen dvd.

I have not the full screen PAL DVD, but the NTSC is not open matte but cropped, hence I think the same would be for PAL.
The shots with missing frames are more than the two you mentioned; they are seven! For two of them, where only three or four frames were missing, the reconstructed frames pass unnoticeable; for the remaining five, sadly the missing frames are just in the middle of the shot, hence it's impossible to replace those frames without very noticeable artefacts due to interpolation. At the end, I was forced to replace 382 frames, that are almost 16s, with cropped BD shots. I know it's the less-than-ideal scenario, but, unless someone could provide a second open matte source, I think it's a compromise we could live with - considering that HP 3 is almost all pan&scan... EDIT: add to this 60 frames of the book replaced shot, and you got a whopping 18s of cropped and upscaled BD parts... on the whole, is less than 0.2% - I think we can live with it...

I think so ☺ though I'll look for another source just in case.
I was only counting missing frames that caused issues with the ivtc

Just finished to watch the fixed version (open matte rocks, and Alan Rickman - R.I.P. - was great! Ed.) and, even if I was aware of the fix and their placement, they were really unnoticeable - apart, perhaps, the previously mentioned clouds in the opening credits, but again, you have to know what to watch, and when...
Here you are a comparison between BD and the fixes - they are a mix of frame interpolation, slow motion, and mainly cropped BD upscaled: So, unless another open matte version (without logo) would surface, I think we have a 99.8% perfect source!  |
