Looking likely we won't be getting a decent release of this any time soon, I was thinking about syncing a mono mix with the Blu-ray.
Does anyone have the mono from any older home releases? I'm going to bet no one has an LD. Anyone have the IVL DVD or even VCD? Thanks.

It's on the HK video DVD (french DVD) but of course someone stole my box set.

Well I checked and sorry to say I don’t have that dvd around anymore, Neon. I have the deltamac for 2 and 3 but can’t find the dvd for the first one. All I can find is the remaster Fortune Star dvd for number 1.
Sorry about that. Thanks given by: NeonBible

All I can find is the remaster Fortune Star dvd for number 1. No problem. Thanks for checking though. Looking at the various releases I am a but confused though. According to Rewind only the Joy Sales has the mono - http://dvdcompare.net/comparisons/film.php?fid=3141 I believe that’s the same as IVL release, but I can barely find any references to it on Google. Its think it’s this one https://www.yesasia.com/global/a-chinese.../info.html Wishful thinking but is there any chance that’s the one you have PDB for part 1?

according to ofdb.de:
The Deltamac is said to have Mandarin and Cantonese in Mono, the IVL is said to have Cantonese in; DTS 6.1-ES discrete, Dolby Digital 5.1 EX, Dolby Digital 2.0 Mono and Mandarin in Dolby Digital 5.1 EX. Seem to be same as on the JoySale/fortune Star trilogy set Disc. The Taiwanese VHJS is said to be about 2 minutes longer than the normal hong kong version in 18 scenes, with mandarin mono and chinese and english subtitles. Dutch and UK DVDs only seem to have 5.1 audio.

I believe that’s the one I have Neon. The one from yesasia. Same one MrBrown pointed out. The disc has long since been ripped and stored away but I do remember that cover.
Media info confirms a 2.0 but I don’t know if mono or mixdown. I’ll upload the mkv for you. Give me a few days. Thanks given by: NeonBible

Don't quote me... but I think the Joy Sales 2.0 is a downmix.
While the HK BD is an upscale...

Never straightforward is it?
 I guess Deltamac is more likely mono, according to ofdb but listed as 2.0 Surround on Rewind.Is the HK BD an upscale of the Joy Sales or a different master?

Despite it possibly being a downmix I would still love to grab the mkv to get a look at colour differences if that ok. |
