Ok. So some of you STILL need to have these rules drummed in. Read them again. They have been UPDATED

1 NO REQUESTING (This is obvious. Ask and get banned)

2 NO SLAGGING OFF OTHER USERS. I am fucking sick to death of people slagging each other off. Stick to rating the quality and note any problems you feel with the release. SLAG OFF OTHER USERS AND I WILL BAN YOU!

3 I do not want to hear any shit about "Ooooh. Where's Centropy/Video CD" or "I'll wait for Centropy/VIDEO CD"

4 IMPORTANT I want no... and i mean NO theories posted in any part of this site about who you believe maVen are. If i see it then you get an instant ban.

5 If you cant abide by the above rules. GET THE FUCK OUT. Nobody wants you here!


Use common sense folks. Rate the quality of the release and thats it. I don't want MaVen/VideoCD bitch talk

well looks like the guy who made the sample pic had a huge hardon that videocd rlsed a TS...haha, jebus

video = 8
audio = 8

nothing was cropped, audio was there, very happy with rls

movie itself was great, better than original only cause it stuck more to the book, even though frankie sinatra was a great plus for the old one.

*took out my nfo comments...enjoy

Why dont you handle this in private , it sucks to have you spam every freaking thread. Movie is good 8 , Pic 7 and Audio 8 Good work Video CD < -- I am allowed to say that right?

:: Handle this in private? Tell me oh wise one how do i do that? Before i posted these the forums degenerated into schoolyard gay bitch fights on an hourly basis. 99% of you cant follow simple rules as past threads have proven. If you don't like it see rule 5 and FUCK OFF - 404

judging JUST by the sample,

all good and fine and fine and good. not unbelievable but not below-par either:

vid is good, typical modern-day good quality TS

audio is good, its the usual soft-with-faint-high-pitch TS, but i think your TVs and things clear that up...i dunno, i always watch on comp. audio is fine, though.

this looks like mainly just a drama, and imdb has it listed as a thriller/mystery, so it's not like there are any really fast-paced scenes with nice cgi that a dvdrip is required for...overall, this release seems fine enough.

sigh: another movie to add to my queue of movies to watch.

thats why he posts rules, and sometimes the spam is necessary

the site's rules.....oh well, i prolly broke 4 of them for this post,

but i had to, it was driving me insane.


Posted by brr8760 on 08-04-2004 02:00 PM:

Welcome back VideoCD! Release seems to be at their usual HQ levels. Will report more after checking it out.

EDIT: Yep, it's a great rip. Accept no substitute.


Posted by younpadawan1 on 08-04-2004 02:08 PM:

picture - vey nice, no complaints
audio - also very nice
movie - remake of classic cold war thriller updated with a 911/Bush vibe. Nice to see some adult thrillers being released in amongst the candie-floss cgi-fests

8/8/8

Well done VCD! as usual...

I post, but not often and that's partially due to most of the drivel.. I've seen 404 post on occasion, but wasn't aware he was a mod.. Personally I can understand his irritation, but taking things so personal can't be good for his own health or the board.. Sad to say but newbies and leechers are attracted to boards like these; it's part of the territory..

Posted by Roger on 08-04-2004 03:22 PM:

check out your glasses correctly, if you watch the actualy release, you see there is barely no angle, a 5 for that ? what you waiting dick head ... a dvdrip ?


Posted by ou812 on 08-04-2004 04:29 PM:

CD2 and CD3 are cut badly and use 128k audio. Don't expect any n00b tools to convert this to DVD5.
Kinda a shame since I cant play PAL SVCDs. So I guess I'll watch it on my PC.

Good RLS VideoCD, pic is great and all is there to the beginning credits. Volume is real low in alot of areas, like irobot.

OVerall Nice release, was waiting on if anyone would step up to the plate on this one.


Posted by slaz on 08-04-2004 07:10 PM:

I'm giving the video 7 and the audio 9 on this, i would give the video 6.5 but no .5's so cant do that.

nice to see more competing grps in the TS / CAM scene now, spoils us for choice..

rating was done on the sample


PS 404 - I agree with your rules posting, but maybe follow the rules yourself? IE post your comments on the quality too? hehe just joshin

This is very weird. I REFUSE to watch this movie on my computer monitor, as I want to see it on my hi res TV, but I'm having a CRAP of a time getting it encoded to DVD. I tried with TMPGEnc Plus, but for some odd reason, after using ISO to extract the mpg files, TMPGEnc Plus won't even ACCEPT CD's 2 and 3. It will ONLY accept CD1 for conversion to DVD format. So instead, I used Mainconcept to convert all 3 CD files from SVCD to DVD format, and after doing THAT, the freakin SOUND is out of sync on CD's 2 and 3! This is REALLY pissing me OFF! There is definitely something WRONG with CD's 2 and 3. So anyways, right now, I'm using Mainconcept to convert all 3 CD's to DVD format, then after that's done, I'm going to use TMPGEnc Plus to re-sync the sound on CD's 2 and 3 by using "audio gap correct" in the source range sub-section of the "advanced" section of the MPEG settings section. And you have to GUESS what the audio gap is by making a 1 minute clip as a test clip to sync the sound on, instead of trying to sync an entire CD, only to find out that it's not QUITE in sync. This is the 1st time I've even bothered with audio syncing a movie, but I REALLY want to see this flick without any glitches.
By the way, for those of you that read this and even know what I'm talking about, I've already figured out the sync setting, and it's 800 ms. Set it to that, and your video and audio will be synced correctly for CD's 2 and 3.
to be honest, this thing needs to be repacked. There are WAY too many mistakes in this release. It's hella good video quality, no doubt about THAT, but to WATCH it, you have to go through hell and high water!
After I've actually SEEN the movie, I'll post an update on the video and video quality, but I figured since I'm not the only one that's having a problem with this release, I'll post what I've done so far in case the info might help someone else out.

UPDATE:...............(8-7-04)

After doing all the above, I was able to finally sit down and watch the entire flick on my DVD player with no glitches. That was the hardest I ever had to work just to watch a movie, but I like that because it made me learn more about how to fix screwed up releases. I'm sure it's only a matter of time before I have to put that knowledge to use again.
Anyways, the video quality of the movie was quite good. Nice and bright when it needed to be. There were some dark scenes, but they were tolerable. The audio was on point, no problems there. The movie itself was ODD. I could not get into it at ALL. I never saw the original, but many people say it was good. If te original is anything like this one, then I don't wanna see it!

Video - 8.5
Audio - 9
Movie - 4

Always a pleasure to watch another VideoCD release.

Video: 8
Audio: 8
Movie: I agree with a previous poster when he stated that it followed the book much better than the first movie...and for that I also like it a lot better. Denzel will most certainly get an academy nod for this one.

Problems with this movie

If you extract CD2 and CD3 to .mpg using ISOBuster, or copy the *.DAT (mpeg2) files to your had so you can make a DVD version you will find the TMPGENC will report CD2 and CD3 have invalid data streams, even though you can play them on any player.

I think someone needs to repack this movie and upload it again. Its a shame most of us DVD users won't be able to convert this movie to DVD.

This was another great release by VideoCD. It's good to see them back on the scene. The video was good but not the best I've seen from this group. The sound was right on typical for this group. IMO the movie wasn't as good as it was made out to be.
8/9/8


Posted by Rubberbandman on 08-05-2004 05:48 AM:

damn why so much trouble to get on DVD? It took me about 15 minutes to set up and about 2 hours to make a dvd at the same time convert to NTSC.


lmao..noobs


Posted by dalton4life on 08-05-2004 06:23 AM:

Generally when I run into problems like I have with this one (when trying to make a DVD) I join the clips in EO video and then run them through TMPGenc. There are other methods that I know should work but this is the fastest way I know of. If it doesn't work then I'll try a more complex approach.

Posted by memcco on 08-05-2004 06:49 AM:

here's how to fix it

open in virtualdub and choose a good video codec..choose max quality..itll be huge...no audio..run it...pt 2 was 9 gigs when i was done..then run it through tmgenc choosing the new video and the original audio..i processed to vcd...it was out of sync by exactly -2000 run it thru virtualdub again with audio and fix the sync...-2000..then process again to vcd wth tmpge. do the same thing with cd3 except its out of sync by -1650. good luck..it came out great.

Posted by memcco on 08-05-2004 06:56 AM:

oops i almost forgot the most important

thing...after opening up in virtualdub run the scan video for errors..it'll take about 10 minutes..then it'll process it..if you don't it won't...sorry about that

Ok Class open your text books for a lesson in DVD Authouring.

Use Nero Start smart and have all the latest plugins installed.

1.Open Nero Startsmart and go to DVD/Copy and backup.
2.Select make your own video.
3.Click add video files.

Now at this point you can speed up the process by going ahead and extracting the MPG file from the Bin file using Isobuster or you can simply add the bin files.
start out putting the last part of the vcd on first then the second and then the third.
Auto arrange them in order, do this to stop the short pause between cd's.

4.Create Chapters
5.Create custom menu if wanted, if not simply click on more at the bottom and uncheck create menu on disc.
6.Click next create your menu or go to the screen to see your project start.
7.Click next and you will be on burn options and a pop up will show up stating that your project contains more PAL video than NTSC it asks you do you want to keep the files PAL. Click no if you live in the states.
8.Either burn to DVD or Make VOB Files on your hard drive to burn with Nero.

GIve it about 2 1/2 hours depending on your System and you will have a complete NTSC Full DVD.

My System Specs are:
Athlon 64 3000
1 gig of OCZ PC3000 Ram
350 GIG HD
NEC 2500a using hacked firmware 1.07 burning on 4x Ritek G04, or 4x Prodisc's @ 8x.

If the source is in NTSC Simply use SVCD2DVD and burn VOB files with Nero.

You guys make things too hard with all these different programs.

I can't speak for everyone because I use TMPGenc not only for making the video DVD compliant but I usually tweak color, noise and audio settings with it. Can nero do that?

Yes and it also has a few filters to change the quality of the video, Bitrate, aspect ratio and audio of the files.

Since I've already did what I I'll give it try tomorrow for kicks. I know if the 2.5 hour time you spoke will take longer on my system if that's how long it took on your. With mine being an AMD 2400 with 512MB PC2700 RAM. I just know I've had bad result with Nero in the past making VCDs and SVCDs.

Movie is Pretty Decent...But as others have had I to have a problem converting...I use dvd lab also for svcd files to make dvd compliants and to no avail...I've tried every authoring tool I have..I will agree a repack maybe in order..But hey the nfo says it all I guess..they don't give a F*ck bout our thoughts..Hopefully 1 of the other groups will release a nice ts also

and people, maybe its just me, but if a group releases something as an SVCD, then perhaps you shouldn't really request a repack just because you are having issues converting it to DVD. the original product isn't bad, as it plays on any player as an SVCD, which is its original intent, no?

its like getting a brand new car then making your own modifications to the engine and it not running after that. you can't blame the manufacturer - blame your own stupidity!

2.5 hours? Why waste that much time?

svcd2dvdmpg extracts the mpg files, demultiplexes, then resamples the audio to 48khz. All of this takes about 20 minutes on my computer. (P4 2.2 Ghz w/ 400Mhz FSB, 512MB RDRAM) Then if your DVD player will play PAL SVCD all you have to do is author the DVD files which takes about 5 minutes, then burn. If your DVD player doesn't support PAL DVD then you have to convert to NTSC using MainConcept.

In short, there is no need to convert to DVD mpg. All that needs to be converted is the audio. The video is fine left as SVCD compliant.

Go to www.videohelp.com and look up svcd2dvdmpg for a complete walkthrough.

Same here, that is what I usually do. But it did not work with this one. That is why I was telling everyone to use Nero.


Posted by Rubberbandman on 08-05-2004 09:04 PM:

explain to me more about this mainconcept.Which version Changes Pal to NTSC? How long does it take?

Nero Smart only had the SVCD option. I've made DVDs before with just nero and VOB files. Regardless I used EO Video and TMPGenc. Maybe next time.

I used the exact same method as BiggD23 and it worked without a hitch. I used version v1.1.1.16608 of SVCD2DVDMPG to convert and Mainconcept to encode. The audio was out of sync by .800 secs as someone mentioned earlier, but I fixed that using Goldwave.

i normaly convert with Mainconcept mpg encoder but cd1 was fine and cd2,3 went out of sync

put it straight on dvd easy.... can someone tell me what is on the 104kb mpg as i left it out ????????


Posted by 104 on 08-06-2004 04:59 AM:

the problem seems to be the 104kb mpg so leave it out.


Posted by Panthro on 08-06-2004 06:52 AM:

avi/vcd/svcd/dvd from boilsoft...worked for me...fast and was able to convert from pal to ntsc without a sync problem...


Posted by mud on 08-06-2004 08:17 AM:

No need for a repack, works fine on cd.
If you want to do more, like using tmpg, and are having problems with cd2/3 you'll need to rewrite the gop timecode. Tmpg will then accept the files.

Open CD2 and CD3 in MPEG-VCR then resave them as SVCD(MPEG2)

now you can take the saved files and do what you normally would

7/8/7


Great Job VideoCD!!!! Good To See Ya Back! Anyways the Video was very nice. It might've had a slight angle to it but it was definately not very noticable. The Audio was excellent (As Usual). It really filled up my Home Theater System nicely. The movie itself was pretty darn good too. There were a few things there at the end that I didnt quite understand so I guess that calls for another viewing of the movie But all in all, A VERY Nice flick from VideoCD. Keep It Up Guys. Like I said, It's very good to see yall in the TS scene again

On Another Note:

404 -- Thanks for taking Initative (dont think I spelled that right) concerning all this hating and what not on groups and each other here on the forum. I used to post ALOT, but then everyone got more concerned with Bad-Mouthing one another than posting comments directed towards the movies. Its good to see that someone else (A Mod no less) finally got tired of seeing the threads full of Ignorant posts and Posters! For a while there it seemed like all people wanted to do was see who could put someone down the hardest. But THANKS Again 404 for cleaning up the forums

My solution was to run the bin/cue discs 2/3 through VCDGear v3.55 with the "Fix MPEG Errors" box ticked to get a mpeg. I then ran the mpegs through VCDGear to get a second set of bin/cues for each disc, which burned OK with Nero. I ignored the small mpeg found in disc 3.

Dvdlab and Mpeg-vcr will rewrite the gop. If you need a guide just use the help files included in both apps.

Question small mpeg file on cd3

Someone asked what was in the small mpeg file on disc 3. NOTHING. It was a dummy file filled with all 0000000's.
Why would anyone do that???

I so hope your stupid ass gets banned. It's dumb fucks like you who ruin this section of the forum. This section if for rating quality of releases that's it, if you want to say something w/o saying anything about the quality then you're just wasting space and don't deserve to be here.

8/8/?

Typical ViDEOCD quality. Good sound, good pic, good ridence to the burnt CAM.

Using VCDGear t fix CD3 now. Unpack, discard mpeg w/o stream, then Repack.

Ok Class open your text books for a lesson in DVD Authouring.

Use Nero Start smart and have all the latest plugins installed.

1.Open Nero Startsmart and go to DVD/Copy and backup.
2.Select make your own video.
3.Click add video files.

Now at this point you can speed up the process by going ahead and extracting the MPG file from the Bin file using Isobuster or you can simply add the bin files.
start out putting the last part of the vcd on first then the second and then the third.
Auto arrange them in order, do this to stop the short pause between cd's.

4.Create Chapters
5.Create custom menu if wanted, if not simply click on more at the bottom and uncheck create menu on disc.
6.Click next create your menu or go to the screen to see your project start.
7.Click next and you will be on burn options and a pop up will show up stating that your project contains more PAL video than NTSC it asks you do you want to keep the files PAL. Click no if you live in the states.
8.Either burn to DVD or Make VOB Files on your hard drive to burn with Nero.

GIve it about 2 1/2 hours depending on your System and you will have a complete NTSC Full DVD.

My System Specs are:
Athlon 64 3000
1 gig of OCZ PC3000 Ram
350 GIG HD
NEC 2500a using hacked firmware 1.07 burning on 4x Ritek G04, or 4x Prodisc's @ 8x.

If the source is in NTSC Simply use SVCD2DVD and burn VOB files with Nero.

You guys make things too hard with all these different programs.



I have Nero Ultra Edition and I downloaded plugins but I don't have the Make your own Video option or add files.

Posted by Bravo on 08-08-2004 07:46 PM:

The simplest way to convert is to let ulead moviefactory convert them for you(best to set it up before you go to bed as it will take time). Then if you want you can use tmpgenc or any encoder you want and convert it to your own taste. The picture quality was good, the sound has the "filter" hiss of noise removal. 8/6.5/8

Posted by BLUE-NEO on 08-10-2004 12:19 AM:

ok this is the final post for all who want this to convert to dvd. First use Mainconcept Mpeg Encoder and Re-Encode the Mpegs to new svcd mpegs. Then demultiplex with TMPGenc. place the m2v and mp2 files into TMPGEnc Xpress and convert to NTSC DVD all 3 disc seperately..that way you can fix the audio to make sure in sync, next use the regular TMPGEnc and combine the three DVDmpegs to one file.


Note: Be Sure To convert each of the mpeg2 to only use 30% of the disc or less...to make sure that once they are combined they will fit on the dvdr.

Next make menus with DVD Movie Factory V.3 and burn.

Once thats done..rating goes up..9/10/7

yeah I know read my instructions carefully it said you can adjust the audio with TMPGEnc XPRESS...easy fix, during the svcd to dvd mpeg2 conversion.

well i have been trying some things out. managed to resample the audio, but cant get the video source to work. tmpgenc wont even demultiplex cd2 and 3 because it doesnt see the video stream. when i used svcd2dvdmpg to resample the audio and demultiplex, it gave me the video stream. tried again to import that into tmpgenc and it it gave me an error for invalid video stream.

just a note on this. first thanks for the ideas. i used mainconcept as you said to make new svcd's and tmpgenc to demultiplex. then i used tmpgenc xpress to make dvd-mpg and fix the audio.

NOTE: one previous post said to use audio correction of -2000 for cd2 and -1650 for cd3. i found these values to be way off, at least in TMPGENC Xpress. for me a value of -1000 for boths cd2 and cd3 yeilded a near perfect sync.

I alos wanted to note its not necessary to make dvd-mpg's of cd2 and cd3 separarely and later combine them with tmpenc. TMPGENC Xpress can convert all three files at once, with audio corrections, and output to a single dvd-mpg file at the end, saving you one step. hope this helps. i'll be doing this conversion overnight now b/c it takes quite a while, but i tested the sync on 2 min samples and they worked fine.


Posted by rivaldo on 08-13-2004 02:55 PM:
