Disney's Beauty and the Beast [spoRv]

@Chewtobacca: happy to know I'm not the only one!

@Lotto: the movie is there, at reduced bitrate, to help putting it in sync with video source (spoRv, BD, DVD etc)
And, if the dubbing is different, at the end I remembered something right - *it seems*!

I thought that the track would be just a wav file. My bad
The files have well the original 1991 french dubbing. Thanks Andrea!

Andrea, it's great that you've done that, but it's not ideal to have h.264 in an AVI.  Is this because you are actually capturing using x264?  If so, I think it would be better to capture in XviD in future (if possible).  Obviously, the goal is to reduce file-size for quick captures.

Was pitch-correction often applied to PAL LDs?  I know about DVDs, but LDs might have been different.

EDIT:  I had a go at syncing the French PCM to the spoRv BD.  Here.

I think I'm aware how to actually capture a laserdisc...
Well, I simply took the lossless audio and video captured file in virtualdub, and save the lossless audio and lossy video - that will serve only as a guide for the sync - too lazy to put it in some other avi -> x264 software!

Was pitch-correction often applied to PAL LDs?  I know about DVDs, but LDs might have been different.

AFAIK, all PAL LDs have 4% speed up applied - and a lot (if not almost all) DVDs, too... to say the truth, the wide public *may* be aware of the pitch problem only when BD came out.

Thanks for the audio sync the AVI file worked, after all!

Of course you know how to capture a LD -- none better! It's just that most people will probably find the codec-container combination difficult to handle. But it did indeed work.

Too lazy to go "outside" VirtualDub (and its own x264 encoder) when I produce a simple video used just for synching purposes!

At the contrary, now I use ONLY x264 command line, when I must do the final encoding - thanks also to your advice!

(note: too much smilies, but I like them very much indeed - and fb doesn't help for sure...)

[Valeyard]

Simple x264 Launcher is easier than launching straight from the commandline... and anything in the encoder parameters box gets put in the commandline. Do you use x264 x64 from the commandline?

Also, it informs you when a new version is available.

Hey, guys!
Could someone help me with this one? I used to have the files, but my HDD crashed and I lost everything.

I asked Andrea for download links or torrents, but unfortunally he doesn't have it anymore, so he suggested me to ask for your help here.

Does anyone have the files and can seed one of the torrents available in the internet (there's one in demonoid)?

BTW, it would be nice to rewatch this classic because of its 25th anniversary this month

After a lot of time, it seems there is a revived interest in this project; sadly, it is not available onto myinternalorgan anymore, and don't know if/where it is still hosted... more, watching the old screenshots, now I must admit I went a bit too far with the enhancement, and the fact I had not added a grain plate at the time made me think that *maybe* I *could* *think* about a revised version...

That could be a viable transitional release, until someone would release a 35mm-based project!

The grain really helps in this case, spoRv
