[Niveous1]

Please fellow fans! I was wondering if any of you happen to have the V1 of Klexos' edits, I am doing a Potterathon (Harry Potter marathon) this Christmas with my family. I would kill to have a link, or any information on where to find the first version.

This thread has become a magnet for new members wanting links - that's not how this place works so please stop asking.

I wouldn't even be surprised this put off Klexos to even post any update or reply. I know I wouldn't like it.

This looks fantastic, has a torrent been released?

[Klexos]

Alright I know many of you have been waiting for an update on this.
I haven't posted because I really didn't have any significant one as I got busy and caught up in other priorities.
It didn't help that I hit a stonewall when it comes to the fifth movie and forward, one I still didn't manage to find a reasonable solution to.

Anyway, 
Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire v2 is done.

v1 was 93.73GB
v2 is 144GB

HDR to SDR Screenshots:

As usual keep in mind all screenshots used, including the comparisons, are HDR to SDR approximations, meaning color, white and black levels data are clipped out or may appear over/underexposed so they are not an accurate representation of the master as it will appear on intended HDR screens. 

Further notes:
Despite cutting a lot of important content from the book (which I read) setting up a whole lot of detrimental problems for subsequent entries as well, and the opinion about this movie being on the more polarizing side, it still remains one of my favorite entries in the series.
I can't but hope that the announced upcoming MAX series will give justice and be more faithful to the books than these movies were.
The Graveyard Duel sequence alone took several weeks to do as I struggled to merge the 4K master's grading with the Open Matte's colors and luminance, I had to manually touch these group of scene's frames one-by-one. 
While the rest of the movie's grading is questionable on the UHD BD with significant changes in hues where (in my opinion) didn't serve the movie's look well and numbed down colors that were previously there, looking at the graveyard duel scene carefully it became unquestionable that the colors, black and white details in the 4K BD for this particular sequence was especially curated and processed and significantly superior there. So I wasn't going to compromise on it. I did all I could to preserve that while still opening the frame.



I ONCE AGAIN REMIND BOTH OLD AND NEWCOMERS TO NOT SEND ME REQUESTS FOR LINKS UNTIL THE PROJECT IS COMPLETE. 
The files aren't hosted anywhere, neither the old v1s nor the new upcoming versions.
I HAVE NOTHING TO GIVE YOU right now.

Looks very promising as usual! Take your time, it'll be done when it's done. Still grateful this project even exists.

I'm glad to hear you are still going strong, my creative friend. Take care of yourself, all other things are secondary....

Thank you so much for the work you put in so far. Each time I see a post of yours, they magnitude of improvement you are giving these movies just hits me. It also strikes me with the state the movies are released in, and that most people will remain ignorant to the fact that they could experience the content in an improved way. But I suppose that since most people have simple televisions incapable of reproducing HDR content in a good way and also rely on simple streaming services, they demand for high quality content isn't high enough to warrant proper releases.

Glad to be on this site to enjoy the wonderful screenshots with people of a similar mindset. My colleagues are mostly like "everything looks good to me on my TV and I stream everything, so I just don't see how things can get better", and then the conversation stops...

Thanks Klexos!
