UHD BD to BD?

[Beber]

Have to agree with you, Beber, the following settings seem to give the overall best results:

Ripbot 264 (hue 0, sat 1, bright -2, contr 0.9):

Overall, yes. But depending on the movie, we need sometimes to adjust some tweakings. That's why I do 2 to 5-minutes tests that pan over a couple of scenes before encoding the whole thing. Die Hard is indeed a tricky one.

The Mummy turned out way to bright with default, will try it with this setting once Grease is finished. Die Hard looked pretty good using the default setting as long as you are happy with the UHD color which I am, not a huge fan of the Netflix color's.

Just finished Grease again and have to take back what I said about those settings, ended up been too dark and causing black crush, prefer my initial default settings encode.

Can't comment on that one. Don't have it. I might see it on DCP thursday night, though.

Would be nice to get your thoughts on the dcp if you get to see it, especially in regards to how bright it looks.

I'll try and go see it, after the World Cup France/Peru game. Also, on Sunday, I should see The Untouchables on 35mm. And next Thursday, Mission: Impossible, also on 35mm. There's a De Palma retrospective at the French Cinémathèque in Paris at the moment.

Looking forward to the UHD Mission Impossible, one trustworthy review rates it almost perfect.

I read the one on Blu-ray.com, too.

Yea, that's the one.

For The Mummy and The Mummy Returns I prefer the output of Ripbot264 1.2.2 (which uses the ffmpeg filter for tonemapping) rather than 1.2.3 (which uses Avisynth + DGTonemap plugin) and is what marban used for his European rips. Gives a slightly darker and more colorful image which suits these particular movies.
