[No Longer Available] Skyfall Open Matte (aka Skyfall IMAX Version)

[nafroe]

Honestly, I don't think I would have even noticed the banding had it not been pointed out here... but on reflection, it is on the BD as PDB pointed out. Even without PDB's further work to fix this, the test version is perfectly watchable to me. I am happy to have a nice looking/sounding version of this to enjoy since it doesn't really officially exist anywhere. Thanks again, PDB!

What a great project to undertake. As others have noted, this movie was really impressive in IMAX.

Having just scrolled through this thread, I'm blown away by the shots.

Great work!

Unlikely PDB is still working on it.

So update.

This has been done for over a month and about a half dozen people were nice enough to test it out for me. Pretty much everyone found it good but one person was nice enough to point out 3 or 4 shots with banding. It appears the banding is baked into both HDTVs and even a little bit in the BD. 8-bit what can you say? So I'm running some de-banding and dithering on it but I don't expect it to be perfect but hopefully better.

When that is done, I'll release this to participating forum members.

Unlikely PDB is still working on it.

I reckon PDB's lost interest so far and put it on hold, understandably. It's been a long time since the start of this project. Hopefully people can see the end product after the de-banding is done.

We have remember all of these projects are done in peoples spare time and are very time consuming.
