Hmm... thanks for the info. But is anyone else experiencing this problem? Or is my TV/DVD Player fucked up?

The picture looks great in the jpg and I've seen so many different opinions about the sound that I'm just going to try this one out. Who cares if I have to get a Proper if one is released. That's what cable is for.

Once again TDI, thank you.

I just watched this movie on a DVD player and the picture and sound are GREAT no problems what so ever

Well done TDI

Just watched the whole movie and the picture is beautiful! Thanks TDI! I don't hear anything wrong with the audio except sometimes I had to turn it up a little to hear Frodo, then turn it down again when the Orcs screamed and stomped around.

RATING: 9/8/9

FYI
2 DVD players at my house both played fine on a 65 inch Mitsubishi Diamond view 16:9 HDTV No bars, and definitely didn't notice any sound problems in the Stereo sound.
The cheaper Audiologic, which is older everyonce it a while loses audio sync with video..but that happens with all svcd and not vcd, but what can you expect for 65 bux from fry's new.

Also playing through WinDvd, on a pc produced excellent quality, With a laptop to the HD tv it was excellent as well.
My guess is personal Hardware/Software problems...

:: intriguing how u got no bars when the movie is 2.35:1 and a 16x9 tvs width is 1.78:1 ...

I just burned the SVCD's and it runs absolutely flawless on my surround system and dvd player... although sometimes u can hear just a really slight buzzing or metallic as described. Doesn't really affect the movie though except for the music... but its a great release. Way to go TDi!

Picture is absolutly flawless except for 1 or 2 flickers in cd3
DVD Quality(not blocky) just great

Sound great but I needed to turn it a bit louder than my normal movies to get the same sound :P o well doesnt matter

I love this release absolutly beats any other rls by kilometres!

Good Job TDi on rls'ing a great movie in record time with great quality!

Someone a few pages back said he was gonna post a waveform of the sound in Cool Edit Pro to show the high pitched squeal. I decided to amke one myself. I demuxed the mp2, converted it to wav and opened it with CEP:

I can't see any high pitched sounds. Its probably just feedback you are getting from the TV/PC Speakers because it is turned up so loud. That had happened to me before with some SouthPark episodes i downloaded.

To sum it up, the people who say they heard a sound are likely telling the TRUTH. However, the sound is not present in the source.

Still downloading but I have watched disk 1 & 2.
There is a slight whine in the audio but I had to turn my amp way up before it was really noticable, I watched what I have so far and got plenty of volume without hearing the whine. In case noone has mentioned it there is a "for your consideration" tag every 10 minutes that runs less than 10 seconds. Unless you are an extreme audiophile download the damn thing, it rocks!

No high pitched whine

watched it 3 times now...

no extraneous noises at all!!!

Maybe what you are hearing is just line noise from the amp?

I found this release to be awesome! Absolutely no problems with the sound (have even listened with HQ headphones, speakers, surround sysytem, and find nothing wrong with it). Strange that some are having problems. Anyway, I think this was a great rip. I couldn't picture it being better. I have a 6 disc DVD rip of TFOTR extended edition, and the quality is the same. Great job TDI! Thanx!!!

i waited long enough

I think i should go ahead and get this, i've waited long enough, i've been seeing it and seeing it. thank goodness i learned how to use the good progs. lol. I've been stuck on chicago for a while now, great flick. i love it. whoa catherine zeta looked tasty. yummy. well i'm gonna go get queued for lotr disk 1. lol. later all.

i been waiting for this for ages a great job by tdi..this will keep me going for the next 7 months wht i wait for the dvd to come out. thanks amilion guys.

as for those that say this is an overated film get a life..if you dont like it dont down load it and stop bitching.

great job tdi. been waiting for this realese. it will keep me for the next 7 months till the dvd comes out.thanks a million guys.

as for those who say this film is not so good...if you dont like it dont down load it and stop bitching..me i think the film is the best yet.

I played the sample with WinDVD 4.5 using the 96khz setting, and got noticeably metallic sound, so I opened it in Sound Forge, to see what I might be able to do. But it didn't sound metallic in SF, and I mean without any tweaking. So I figured it might be those settings in WinDVD, so I went back and turned off the 96khz option, and sure enough the metallic sound vanished. Least, as far as my ears were concerned.

This is fine, until the DVD comes out, when I'll actually spend a little money for the best sound and picture I can get, support the filmmaking endeavor, and not be a whining, parasitic, cunty little bitch that expects it for nothing -- not that anyone here fits that description

Video is very good 9/10, sound is ok 7.5/10, Movie is 10/10

Thanks TDi keep up the good work! I appreciate this release.

LOTR stop ur fukin moaning

Ok watched this last night with powerdvd (srs), creative 5.1 theatre system, digital projector (12x10), and a 6ft X 6ft screen. It rocks man as good a screener as i have seen, DvD or no.
the sound quality is actually fantastic if you have the right equipment to hear it, and the spectrum of sound including the subwoofer shudders are amazing. The reason peeps will say the sound is bad is becoz its not compressed. Therefire next time you seek to judge sound etc, make sure you know what your fuking talking about, or, you have the right equipment to make a subjective opinion.

Still its not like i give a fuck anywayz.

You cant let them go........It's in god's hands now!
