sweet, been waiting for this one for a long time, and now i also have a new dvd player that plays svcds instead of just vcds. Saw the sample, looks pretty good.

rock on

If the picture is perfect I can deal with slight sound imperfections, especially since almost nobody has even noticed them.

Can't wait for a DVDR tho!

It's seems that many svcd releases has that high pitch background. Some threads at Doom9 has discussed that issue. It needs really good rippers to get it right.
Unfortunately for that great movie this time....

Metallic Sound

perfect video, i mean perfect. as for the audio, well, i have an Audigy sound card. there is a metallic sound, put the treble up to 100% and you'll hear it. i usually have it at 100%. i put it to 40% and it's inaudible. i wouldn't be suprised if a group did released a proper cuz of the audio. hopefully VITE's release won't have this audio problem.

Partially off topic:

Gollum for Best Supporting Actor!

Anyone else think it's cool that New Line is really pushing for Andy Serkis to get it even though the odds are way against them? I just think it's cool they are sticking to thier guns and pushing for who they think deserves the award, not picking an 'easy win'.

Video quality is just awesome. But i use my computer as HTPC in my home theater, and i also noticed that the audio is kinda "metallic". It's not that poor tough.
I think I'll grab the xvid when it's been released. Hopefully it includes 5.1 sounds. They would be soooo sweet

10/9 for video and...
6-7 for audio.

ps. I only checked out the sample.

I think he'll get nominated...and that'll be it...no chance in hell he wins though...

Thoughts on sample:

Video is awesome! Screener message, is very un-annoying and quick too. Sound....I hear what others are talking about, I think a group would be asked to get 'flamed't to hell if they re-encode this...and let's not be TOO f'n picky...jeez.

However, if a group would release the DVD-R source, that'll be the true precious...from past experience with other recent films (potter & 007) it takes a day or two...

The audio issue isnt that bad, its because of a shitty mp2 encoder, ive also noticed it on the adaptation dvd screener. I think if anything would possibly be wrong with this release is the captions on the bottom cuz its an academy screener. But also their not on all the time. But i have been waiting on this for a while almost started thinking its not gonna happen, so im way too happy to see such a good release, and also very happy to see the dvd scr came out before a tape screener.

One clarification please: is this version a preview of the forthcoming DVD with extra scenes or is the same version that we watched in the theaters?

:: same as theaters , extended wont have been finished yet, they work on it after the film has been released -pHo

Great great release, i experienced the thing with the sound too, on my pc it's not really clear but on my standalone it is.
Sound still isn't perfect, but i think 90% of the viewers won't even notice it

Great job TDi!

all you dumbshits complaining about the sound...if you don't know by now, all these groups doing the dvdrips use the same method...they use dvd2svcd.

Ripping a dvd properly as var as video concerned can make a big difference, hence the reason respectable groups like TCF can rip dvd video better than some n00b groups.

However, as far as sound is concerned, the only options you really have is what bitrate you want to encode at (im guessing this one is either 192 or 224 or else it would be nuked) which is totally fine. The last option you can choose is whether or not to downsample the audio from 48->44.1 Khz. Now if they leave it at 48khz some of you will start crying because 48khz (although better sound) will not play on your dvd players because 48 is not at the true svcd spec. If they downsample it to 44.1, (which they should to make it according to spec), then the rest of you will complain because their was a loss in quality from the original audio source.

Main point: I'm sure if this was released by TCF nothing about the sound would be said...why don't you just admit that TDi owns us all for this quick release and sTfU.

Could it be exactly one year?

no. this is one week early. last year tcf released it on jan 16, this year on jan 8 (although nfo says jan7) - since the days are one day earlier, this is exactly one week early.

did you ever stop to think that maybe it was released on the 7th but vcdquality just didn't get it till the 8th?

All times are GMT. The time now is 12:04 AM.
