I have cleaned up all the shit. If your post was not rating the release in some way, or pHo trying to get money, it has been deleted. I really don't care that all of you want to sleep with maven, nor do I care if you can't find the release. That is your problem, keep it out of here and my mod queue. Bannings will result if it continues. EJO

EJO dont comment on how you feel about maVen if you want your members to do the same.

I made no such comment. Your post has been edited because it had no bearing on rating the release. Final warning. If you don't like it, take your marbles and go elsewhere. - EJO

Posted by dug123 on 05-28-2007 04:01 AM:

like other audio from maven the wave pattern is completely inversed on one channel

an example would be

L: /\/\/\/\/\
R: \/\/\/\/\/
when it should be
L: /\/\/\/\/\
R: /\/\/\/\/\

so either demux the audio, inverse one of the channels with audacity, mux is back in...
or just play the audio on mono mode

either way do 1 of those and you will notice a big difference. i remember hearing about this being a method of antipiracy in some theaters but not sure why maven doesn't fix it them selves since its a home made rls

but also, great looking release forget about the lame nukers calling this a dupe when its the best TS out. hope they keep up the good work


Posted by efex172 on 05-28-2007 04:18 AM:

Video 7.5 - 8 reason, it looks purposely darkened (1.06.00 example) so you don`t see much of the strobing plus alot of motion blur (slow down the first scene with the prince on the fake horse for quick check)
Audio 8 (good sound)

..and yeah the best version to get so far


Posted by Arthur Daily on 05-28-2007 05:00 AM:

I would love to hear some of your 'ideas' on
what IS a Nuke & what dose it mean to Nuke a release. lol
it should be an interesting read.
BTW, VCDQ and its mods don't nuke releases
they just 'report' nukes that have been made.

For the TS part
V: 8
A: 7
M: ?



For the cam audio & other reasons some of you shirt-lifters cant fathom
= Nuke


(i dunno why i get drawn into this shit, Dam i need to get out more)

The audio is inversed just like the night at the museum release a while back and "in the land of women" usually its done with TS's so perhaps it could be an antipiracy thing from theaters since both movies mentioned above were TS's.

Here is a bit more detailed instructions on how to fix it so that if you do burn it to dvd it won't go in your rear channels:



1. Open AVI with VirtualDub
2. Select Audio>Full processing mode
(video>direct stream copy)
3. Save audio as .WAV
4. Open WAV file with Audacity
5. Split Audio into seperate channels
(where it says "audio" on the left click that and "split stereo track" is on the bottom)
6. Select all data in Left channel
7. Select effects>invert
8. Save as .WAV (dont overwrite the other one!)
9. re-combine with VirtualDub (Video direct stream copy/audio from WAV)
10. Convert resulting AVI using ConvertX if you want to burn to DVD

With the audio fixed its pretty good.

I can't believe how much everyone has gotten into this release like this. It's a great release and too bad it didn't come out sooner, but it's still a great release. Thanks and welcome back if you guys are truly back. If so, you've created a hell of alot of buzz from people you wonder if they have a life?

Maven is back just in time for summer movies.

Oh and who cares what MVS is gonna say, they are not a home made group, they piece movies together and releases them... I can say I don't remember a release from MVS that was ever as good as maVen's worst release. Having said that I have watched MVS releases in the past that were good....

maVen is back in business. Thank god the scene has one group who know what a quality release is. I'm guessing that french person from the NFO is their last cameraman because some of their movies had french subs in them (X-Men 3 for example). They must of lost their source until their new one now.


Posted by Joemimel on 05-28-2007 06:28 AM:

Some of the audio tracks on first run released movies that are based in English that are shown in different parts of the world are only down-mixed to MONO. When you see inverse audio, it's because the MONO signal has been reproduced on 2 Channels.

This is a simple recording and/or encoding error.

Mix and RE-MUX and the Audio and it sounds great.

V: 9 A: 8.5 (after working on it)
Movie: If your over the age of 12 and you watch these types of movies, you should find a hammer and hit yourself a couple of times and see if it's funny later on. Or smoke a pound of weed before watching this movie...

It's the best of the bunch so far but that's not saying much, is it ? Just because it's the almighty maVen doesn't make this great, and it's not. Audio is fixable yet it's bloody awful as is. Video is ok..nowt special.

Does anyone else sense something a little fishy about this release? The email address is not the same as the one in previous releases, and the note seems a little... umm... well you know... I have a feeling this isn't really maVen. Same as I did with those VideoCD releases awhile back.

Good release anyway

After figuring out how to do the audio fix....


V: 9
A: 4 (with no fix)
A: 10 ( with fix) - MUCH MORE BASS, and both left and right channels are even now, its great except some reason it doubled the final file size from 700 to 1400..... and I dont know why
M: N/A

Because you're using a wave file not an mp3 file


Posted by betelgeus on 05-29-2007 04:00 AM:

8/8/?

so what exactly has been duped?just the final audio,because it blantaly clear by opening titles this isnt cameras russian version.

actually at 14:59. not sure why this was nuked to begin with. if anything call it mislabeled ts with the very little cam audio at end. but the audio, even the cam, is a different source, so not a dupe. watermark at end is insignificant, and even in the movie it is no more than 2 frames long


Posted by nitemare on 05-29-2007 07:15 AM:

Video - 8
Audio - 5
Audio with Fix - 7
Movie - 7

Fix worked great. Definately needed. Without fix - it is barely watcheable. Thanks for the fix instructions. File size was 1.4GB in size. But, who cares when watching on xbox with a 250gb HD.
Movie was good overall. Better than reviews. Not as good as 1 or 2, but def funny parts.


Posted by AssKing on 05-29-2007 08:50 AM:

Looks better on my 20" television than on my 19" widescreen HD computer monitor.

9/10/7

Video is excellent, rarely have I seen better cam video.

Sound is phenomenal, no hissing, static or anything else. The cam audio with laughter at the end is way at the end of the movie and not worth bitching about. After all, who the hell is going to save this release forever even after the DVD rips are out?

I hope maVen sticks around.

Just because its a different source doesnt mean no one already did it. As it says on the FAQ here, if it already exists there is no need for it again. And if a group thinks its better than the others it needs a proper tag otherwise its bad... Also there are watermarks throughout this release, which gets annoying to say the least.

Lastly, i don't see what the big fuss is on this, the dark scenes are still horridly dark and you cant see anything. If it was any other group they would be getting bashed over this release.

this is often the case when no-name groups release. the group "propering" sometimes doesn't label it as such b/c no one really acknowledges the other group to begin with. such is the case here. it was called "dupe: CAMERA" and nuked, which his wrong since CAMERA release was already nuked for out of sync. only other XVID TS release was by HortonQuality. when you see that you say "who" and when you watch it you say "wtf?"

so yeah maybe it technically should have read "proper" or "really really real proper". anyway, the rls is nice, and the watermarks In the film are literally two frames long so if that annoys you gimme your zip code and i will recommend a movie theatre

Video 9
Sound 8
Flik 6

In the current climate this is a good release. Superb pic - good in light and dark scenes. Sound is ok after being doctored. Edit the bit missing with the wizard and it still makes sense to the run of the film. Slap the camera release audio over the silly laughter at the end and you have a great release. I don't know if the end audio was deliberate or what but to me it sounds like that laughter is 'put on'. If this truly is maven great to see you back boys. Its been a really shit couple of months on the scene. Cheers.
