This is the lamest fucking thing I have ever seen. There was nothing wrong with ctp release. What the fuck is up with these lame shitty ass groups riding on the success of real groups?

i know they use tmpenc, but what settings?? i have ctp release, and i'll reencode myself if i just have the settings. cause the pic quality looks great.

first post here, just my two cents on the reencoding
the resolution of each screenshot, not taking in any black seems to be 352x162
so all you need to do is convert the SVCD to AVI and reencode to that resolution, adding borders of 63 pixels top and bottom for PAL or 39 for NTSC. That will give you the aspect ratio XPD claim to be correct.
Sorry if you all already know that

How and with what program do you re-encode, cause TMPGEnc doesnt have the glare or color options...

LoL, violating their own rules...

How to re-encode

How would I go about re-encoding it, I have tried TMPGEnc and it has no such glare or color options...

this release looks like it has too much red in it....

can someone gime the settings of the encode of this movie. i wanna do a nice one also.

this is from the nfo.......

is that some of the specs?

I dont think it would be against the forum rules if someone were to post the settings that XPD used to improve the quality of Centropy's release?

Anyone know?

Besides what is in the NFO?

Like taking out the glare.

Please help me

I have the Centropy svcd, but when i try converting to vcd, the sound gets thrown off by a second or two. Someone please help me. I used TmPgenc and i tried fps of 29.97, 23.97, and 25, they all didnt work. AOl IM me at ahnil8er or email [email protected]

Ill hook u up with anything u want from me.

thanks

To clear the air

PAL--->more frames per second.
NTSC--->faster refresh rate.

Both formats have + and -

(edit :: true, but thats not the differences between NTSC and PAL hehe :P PAL has a higher vertical resolution but a lower framerate than NTSC - pHo )

Oh, it's just JC

Why The fuck would u re encode this??? Centropy did a great job, if you dont like it PAL encode it however you want, who the hell is XPD anywho?

I don't think it would be against forum rules to ask how to duplicate what they did. I want to encode mine to the VCD that they did.

I know the NFO says a few things but can anyone help to tell me what settingins in TMPGEnc they used to make a great VCD?

Thanks

what are the settings to encode to a vcd??
theres a freakin vcd template that comes with tmpgenc,
how hard is that?

and the original wasn't too blue, and the AR wasn't way off,
it was perfect when I played it on my dvd player and watched it on my TV, of course the AR was way off watching it on a computer, but if your just gonna watch it on a computer, convert it to a divx, not a vcd.

anyone with re-encode questions should look at vcdhelp.com,
it will answer pretty much every posible question you can have.

ok:
convert all 3 to mpg.
take part 1 and 2 and combine with mpeg tools
load the resulted combination to tmpgenc
load as vcd template, use ntsc
go to load template again, go to extras, go to unlock
use 1pass 1150 kbps max resolution 352X288 audio 224
do the samething with 3rd cd

i like to fuck around, like putting it on 1:1 vga and keep aspect ratio

there so many things you can do with tmpgenc, when you unlock it you can adhust the kbps to what you want
play around with the vbrs and shit i like to play with the widscreens and etc thats all

tell me if im wrong on the settings or add something (pho)

Release looks great from the jpeg. I'll probably re-encode the centropy myself. And it is very easy. TMPEGenc, freeware.
WTF is an xvcd? Its a vcd that has been encoded at a custom bitrate. In other words, its a non standard vcd or svcd. Some DVD players can't read non standard, some can. Apex players playem fine.

The only question I have is about the color correction. How do you add the more red and green to the picture?

And what GOP settings did they use?
