this is 3 cd, not 4 as stated on the site - just as a note.

this is getting rediculous... svcd has nothing to do with the quality of a telesync.. the ctp svcd are as good quality as the ctp vcd.. its fine to want to be known for something different in the scene.. but what the fuck.. do we really need an svcd telesync of unfaithful?

i like the svcd more and i am sure other people do too just like how it is stated in one of the previous ctp nfo's i read.

svcd info

svcds are hypotheticaly speaking, "higher quality" because its MPEG2 as aposed to 1, and it therefore uses more processing power from the player.

There is a bit of difference b/t VCD and SVCD. NO, the SVCD does not change the qulaity of the TS, but it does enhance the quality of this pic... if that makes sense. VCDs are encoded at 352X240. SVCDs are encoded at 480X480. If played on a computer, you cannot tell much of a difference, but if they were played on a DVD player on a tv bigger than your monitor, there is a significant difference. The extra 128X240 make the picture have to strech less to fit your TV.

So in a short statemnet, SVCD is better than VCD in quality on TVs bigger than your monitor.

If you do not fell like wastin a couple of pennies on a cd, dl the entire movie and load up TMPGEnc and re-encode the damn move to VCD and quit ur bitchin!

On the movie, the quality is very high up and sound is ok.

Posted by napalmfuzz on 05-14-2002 11:28 PM:

i know what you are saying... but if ctp were relying on it looking better on standalones i think they would work on their releases being compliant on more than a handful of peoples standalones

Since they have switched to svcd all their shit plays in sync. Thank God!!!

nobody cares about using an extra cd, it's the downloading the extra 800mb that irritates a lot of people.
spiderman looked good though, worth it.

Dumb Asses

You people are so dumb. Making a TS encoded with SVCD does change the quality!!! It makes the bitrate much higher and the screen resolution bigger. The higher the bitrate the better the quality. A higher bitrate also makes the action scenes in any movie much less blocky. Just like Spiderman has no blocky action scenes.... Fuckers!

Posted by brr8760 on 05-15-2002 12:20 AM:

As much as I prefer 2 cd releases-- for various reasons-- I TOTALLY respect Centropy's commitment to quality. The 2 CD re-encode of Spiderman made the difference clear. Bottom line: the picture quality is better on svcd.

If someone can accomplish the same thing on 2 CD's--> bon appetite.

Posted by vertigo235 on 05-15-2002 12:21 AM:

Well I like the SVCD's, if you dont like it then go make your own ! I'll be getting this movie.

well obviously ... any recode is going to be worse quality than the original. we'll never know how an original vcd would have compared to the svcd, but my guess is it wouldn't have made much of a difference.

if you can get the svcd on 2 cds i say go for it, but dling 2.4gigs for a TS is overkill.

hah.. ok.. thats partially right.. but how about the fact that VCD's use MPEG1 encoding.. and SVCDs use MPEG2.. which is the same compression that dvds use.. that and the svcd bitrate is much higher.. allowing for much better color and picture quality

saying that.. im undecided on this new svcd change.. i think its probably good... but hell i wait for the screeners :P
i like the idea of encoding vhs screeners to SVCD.. THAT is smart.. and from a master vhs tape.. can be of very high quality..

goodbye vcd.. hello svcd

Posted by milk02 on 05-15-2002 01:20 AM:

this isnt a typical svcd

Why does Centropy release their TS SVCDS in 480x576 ? Doesn't make a lot of sense. Should be 480 x 480.

appetite.

Of corse the recode was of lower Quality, but if it had been Encoded to VCD from the source, the difference in Quality would have been barely noticeable

VCD standards have a lower bitrate, but at the same time have lower resolutions, hence not requiring quite as much bitrate to achive the same quality

You people are so stupid. Take one of the samples of the Centropy SVCD TS Releases and convert it to VCD and the quality is no where near comparable to the SVCD sample. You people need to get some contacts or something to not see the difference. SVCD TS is better, end of discussion. The only complaint that some have is the Pal format. Thats it.

Posted by gtbuzzbee on 05-15-2002 02:24 AM:

not bad

Considering is still a Cam this svcd is not bad at all. The sound is pretty good and for the most part the picture is good to! There is a little fuzz in the picture but is does not hurt the release at all. Nice work Centropy!

What the hell are you whining about? you are getting this for free with very little risk to yourself, mean while CTP are risking their butts every time the cap a movie.

You always have a choice, download it or don't, no one is forcing you to grab it.

Oh BTW.....
The cam used is a high quality DV cam this will give very good results and to down sample to a VCD would negate some of that quality that is why they are SVCD.

Posted by krazyfoo on 05-15-2002 05:28 AM:

good job at reading the nfo's pepperkorn.. i think we all understand the relationship of a dv cam.. to higher quality.. but it would be higher as svcd even if it wre an old school vhs cam.

and woop dee doo.. Centropy prob doesnt REALLY take THAT much risk.. or they wouldnt do it so much.. cuz their luck would run out.. and if they ARE taken that much risk.. they are stupid.. and should know its really not worth it

ok.. im getting sick of replying like i know everything.. so stop makin me :P

if you sit here and whine about svcds your player obviously doesnt play then so instead of sitting here bitching about that, actually say like can you make a few vcds instead of saying im getting sick of this svcd bs, the svcds are a lot better quality so shut up already

Posted by bambambam on 05-15-2002 10:51 AM:

You guys are talking out of your ass. The SVCD format is making a huge difference in the quality of these TS's. They are encoding from a digital source.

VCD is not a superior format to SVCD and no amount of gay gay gay gay speculation is going to change that. Shut the fuck up and enjoy the absolute best TS's that have ever been captured and released.

Actually, it's most people's cheap-ass, bullshit DVD players that aren't compliant. SVCD simply isn't supported on many DVD players and while their decoders would likely play it fine, they're too fucking stupid to know where on the disc to look for the files.

People need to stop complaining about this shit, no one really gives a fuck. Go buy a decent Pioneer or an Apex or something and stfu. Since all you bitches obviously aren't paying for your movies, then you ought to have a couple extra bucks left over to buy a 50-60$ DVD player that will work just fine.

SVCD is superior to VCD, but I don't think anyone has said otherwise. As for encoding from a digital source, that doesn't mean shit. That's like the bullshit they give you about "digital quality" picture and sound when trying to sell morons DVD players. Encoding from a RealMedia file is a "digital source", but it still looks like crap. Garbage in, garbage out as they say. So while an SVCD TS might look better than an VCD from the same source, the difference in quality can often be relatively minor. It's like making an SVCD from a standard VHS tape, it's really not going to look that much better than a VCD from the same captured source. So before you get some mad learning on, you really ought to stop talking out of YOUR ass.

You do happen to be right that these people need to stfu up about it, you just don't have enough knowledge to make the argument you are trying to make. Not to mention that without seeing the source capture it's really hard to tell if the quality of an SVCD would really be that much better than an VCD from the same source. Though in this case the SVCD looks pretty good. The end though, does not justify the means. Neither does a good point justify the uneducated rhetoric fronted to support it.

Posted by AceOvArts on 05-15-2002 12:36 PM:

it all depends if theyre capturing from dv or analogue, standard analogue VHS cam res is 1/2 PAL or VHS, DV is higher res. If from dv then svcd is the best way to put out the capture as it will use more width than vcd. Of course the added bonus of higher bitrate helps too
If you have any doubt about what it all means go here

Keep up the great work and SVCD rels Centropy !!!

yea i enjoyed that response hpv. i think alot of people feel that way.

i think we should have a lengthy scene test that everyone must pass before making comments here. questions about video quality, scene rules, standards and etc would be asked.. and if u dont know enough to pass.. u prob dont have any business making up long rants like this one

First question in the "you're to fucking stupid to comment on VCD vs SVCD": name the framerates and resolutions for VCD PAL, NTSC, and NTSCfilm. Extra credit if you can explain why NTSC framerates don't evenly multiply into NTSC's 60hrz refresh.

Posted by krazyfoo on 05-15-2002 09:35 PM:

i actually know most all of that.. haha.. but hey.. u gotta when its ur field in college :P.. learned alot over the years... doing digital-media.. 3d/arts.. a nice feeling getting my 3d work onto a high quality svcd

ill have a stab.. correct me if im wrong

framerate:
Pal: 25fps
NTSC: 29.9fps [but think ntsc has a few options?]
NTSCfilm: 23.. something hehe

resolutions:
NTSC[film too]: 352x240
PAL: 352x288

and ill get back to u w/ the extra credit :P

Posted by tsay2cx on 05-15-2002 09:44 PM:

Isn't this suppose to be about the quality of the movie.. stop arguing about if the TS should be done in SVCDs or VCDs.. There are plenty of other posts about it already ie: Spiderman..

The picture is good, sound is good, movie is so so, since I am not really into this type of movie..

I give it a 8/8/7

Posted by phatbastard on 05-16-2002 12:07 AM:

CTP is KING

Bitch, Bitch, Bitch!!

If ctp whats to release every movie in svcd thats fine by me. Afterall you people, your getting these movies for free. People that are getting stuff for free have no room to bitch about what somebody is doing like ctp. SVCD plays fine in my dvd player and that extra 30 cents for a cd-r isn't exactly breaking the bank. Oh, i almost forgot to mention that the quality of SVCD is so much better than VCD.

Posted by hpv on 05-16-2002 02:03 AM:

NTSC is ~29.976fps
NTSC film is ~23.976fps

An SVCD by standard has to be ~29.976fps but you can use ~23.976fps with a 3:2 pulldown on playback.

Obviously though, people who know what they're talking about don't need to be tested... just the kids who think "digital quality" means something and other such non-sense. ;p

Whazzup with the BOOM mikes???

I love Centropy. But these boom mikes are really starting to kill my entertainment buzz. With all the care they take to put out the best quality, wouldn't a little cropping go a long ways here?? Obviously, these mikes will be cropped out in the finished product, so why leave them in here?

PLEASE KILL THE BOOM MIKES IN THE FUTURE!

ok i guess its just cooincidence that my 400 dollar zenith progressive scan plays every other vcd release in the world but centropy... any way... as to this svcd discussion... watch spiderman.. then watch we were soldiers.. its the exact same god damn quality just without the extra fucking disc.. think back to centropys telesync of lord of the rings... same quality as spiderman and on 3 discs at 3 and a half hours.. spiderman 2 hour movie on 3 discs.. its just fucking rediculous.. i can see that most people that are saying how much better svcd makes a telesync are fucking newbies and rookies so i understand that you are full of shit.

Actually I could care less about whether it's VCD or SVCD. But your zenith dvd player is a piece of shit if it can't play the Spiderman SVCD. And as you've already made abundantly clear, you have no where near the required knowledge to make a statement on quality. And btw, I never said anything about an SVCD making a TS better than an VCD. You're the moron who implied that.

Posted by afr0thund3r on 05-17-2002 02:03 AM:

bottom line is that the svcds are definitely superior to the vcds. but 3 cds for a ts can be excessive. for a major release such as spiderman, i am sure that most people wouldn't mind burning an extra cd. if the release can fit on 2 cds, then i'm all for the svcd. but for any old movie, i would prefer not to use 2 gigs of hd space.

Or that could be because I don't post here 24/7 because I'm not a moron with no life that sits around posting shit on this forum?

Fact is, I know what the fuck I'm talking about and you know about posting bullshit on this forum and sucking your dad's cock, and not much else. But stop your whining because you spent the 400$ your dad gave you for giving him head on a piece of shit zenith because you thought progressive scan would do anything on your crappy television and now you're sad because dad wants freebies and you didn't have the sense to know the capabilities and limitations of your player before you bought it.

Posted by krazyfoo on 05-17-2002 02:01 PM:

oh i see.. we're basing knowledge on post count?... cuz i always thought the guy w/ all the posts.. was the guy w/ too much time on his hands.. and nothing else.

as for this svcd argument.. i think it should be worked out like this:
SVCD TELESYNCS should be standard.. as long as it doesnt take 3 CDs[or 113+ minutes].. if so u go w/ VCD and leave it at 2 CDs.. cuz i dont care enough to burn 3 cds.. of some TS thta WILL have a screener later on.

3cd rls's and up... should only be allowed w/ digital sources..

Posted by Bud-man on 05-18-2002 03:45 PM:

There is NO reason why these movies are released as a SVCD...there origin is from a vcd so stretching it out to 480x480 really makes no sense, look at spiderman there faces looked fat and dunst legs looked real fat in that waitress dress....waste of time having to dload another cd, and dont give me crap about encoding ive been ripping shit when most of u were still in diapers...which isnt more than 10 yrs ago

Im fucking sick of reading this god damn forum. All I hear is bitching and fucking VCD is better than SVCD. Jesus A Christ. No should care so fucking much over something so gay.

If your going to post something, make it a review. And whoever is moderating this forum should post a rule about no gay buttsex flamming about video format. No one wants to read it. Whenever a movie comes out. Someone has to make the same stupid arguement about VCD or SVCD. God im sick of this n00b shit.

yes .. u have OBVIOUSLY been encoding since i was in diapers.. funny how the 'origin' was a DV cam.. and from there.. it was encoded to SVCD/mpg2... no VCD/mpg1 involved.
hail oh wise encoder.. stfu.

Ok, first thing first, kid. Spider-Man was a fucking PAL SVCD. It is 480x576.

Second, that's why it looked squished, because your DVD player is a piece of shit and is too cheap to handle it properly.

Now, third, since you've been encoding for so long, then you would know that SVCD doesn't used square pixels, so even if the image is 480x480 (which it isn't as I stated in part 1), then it would appear 4:3 when played back.

Fourth, you've obviously never encoded anything in your life (with the possible, but unlikely seeing as how stupid you are, exception of an automatic DVD->RealMedia converter as you're far too gay for anything of higher quality.)

Fifth, you're a fucking moron. Sit down and shut the fuck up before you hurt yourself.

That's all. Stupid people, at least try to learn something to sound smart before you post on here. And making claims and then backing them up with a startling level of ignorance is NOT how to do it.

And on a side note, Krazyfoo has good thoughts on disc # and stuff, but the kids can release however they want. We're getting it for free and it's plenty watchable.

Long time reader, first time poster.

Guys sitting here and talking about someones sexuality is not posting a review about the movie. Take a look at the forums of isonews and see what happens when thats how people talk. Lets sit here and talk about the movie (of which there is probably 5 reviews out of 50 posts). Thanks for your time

Posted by krazyfoo on 05-20-2002 01:12 AM:

Trickster.. i agree.. the movie should be talked about..

but .. u DO realize u did the same thign?.. u didnt mention the movie quality either.. that and.. i dont think there is gonna be much more discussion involved w/ these svcd ts's.. since they will most likely always be of an acceptable quality to those who swing the way of the ts :P

and.. please dont compare this to iSONEWS.. the quality of flame here.. is much higher heh.. but yea.. im done.

What is the deal with the mikes in this? Where did they get this copy from? I saw it in the theater an i'm sure i would have seen the mike one of the 12 times that are in this release.

No bitching i think it's funny like that.

Posted by aZoR on 05-20-2002 06:49 AM:

Un Edited???

Has anyone else noticed that this film is unedited(noted because the mic booms are still in the movie)...meaning the CTP is getting it directly from source...Interesting

Good job CTP!

Posted by Greeneyes on 05-20-2002 09:35 PM:

Love those SVCD

I don't understand why all the complaints. Since Centropy has
been releasing the TS in this format the quality is much better.
I really appreciate the difference in quality. I don't care about
the extra cd(cost about 10cents a disc). Now I can enjoy the
movie at home. I think this format makes them very watchable.
I hate that FTF shit! When I see that group associated with a
release I don't even bother to download it. Waste of time and
a disc. I'm off to the theater to watch "Enough" because I've
had enough of FTF's Shit!

Posted by luckifer on 05-20-2002 10:26 PM:

booms and their mic's

I just wanted to mention something about the microphones in the movies.

A couple years ago I was able to enjoy the only NC-17 version of Jerry Maguire...the reason was because the projector that was used to view it was old school and the filters(to crop the picture, can't remember the actual term) had to be set manually. The projectionist failed to put the proper filter on, so instead of having Cuba Gooding Jr.'s penis cropped out of a shot in the lockerroom, it was there in plain view. The same goes for microphones...

For some reason CTP does not have access to a properly cropped projector, or something to that effect...I have no idea.

So, the copy of Unfaithful they had was most likely no different than the one's released to theater after theater, other than the projector wasn't setup properly.

I am surprised this information isn't more commonly known. The film reel shows more than is actually presented on the screen...I believe pretty much any movie has the boom and all visible, just that they are cropped out by the projector.

yep.. id bet ur on the mark for sure luckifer

but some movies dont work that way.. this one however probably does.. years ago i used to run projectors for a local theatre [99cent.. theatre w00t].. and they had some of the same problems.. but i have never gone to a real theatre and seen this.. so im wonderin how they managed to find such a poorly setup reel :P..

funny storry about Jerry Maguire by the way

oh and greeneyes.. not to flame.. but u DID manage to contradict urself :P

Boom Mic

I watched the centropy released of Unfaithful and I enjoyed the movie but the one thing that just racked my nerves what the boom mic showing in like 90% of the movie...... is this a workprint release or something? If this is a telesync shot from a theatre I can pretty much bet people were exceptionally ticked off if they noticed it.
