Watermarked Movie Soundtrack...

yer its about that time of year just as the blockbusters start hitting the screens.

quote:
In recent years, the problem of camcorder piracy in theaters has become more serious due to technical advances in camcorders. In this paper, as a new deterrent to camcorder piracy, we propose a system for estimating the recording position from which a camcorder recording is made. The system is based on spread-spectrum audio watermarking for the multichannel movie soundtrack. It utilizes a stochastic model of the detection strength, which is calculated in the watermark detection process. Our experimental results show that the system estimates recording positions in an actual theater with a mean estimation error of 0.44 m. The results of our MUSHRA subjective listening tests show the method does not significantly spoil the subjective acoustic quality of the soundtrack. These results indicate that the proposed system is applicable for practical uses.

Would you like to know more?

So this will affect CAMS... Big fucking deal

Does anybody even download CAMS any more? Sounds to me like they're attempting to prevent people from capturing shitty audio - thanks, hopefully they'll find a direct audio source instead!

Have to agree with NS, at least with TS releases you get better audio which means they're more watchable in my opinion. This would only force groups to find a new (ie. better) source for the audio.

Shocking, isn't it.

Apparently even for the latest SFX blockbusters which are all/only about the visuals people will watch some grainy/pixelated, washed out, cropped by half the screen, out of ratio, over bright/dark image...and feel they have seen/experienced the movie

LOL!
they will never stop piracy.

am i really a pirate?

Piracy is a warlike act committed by a foreign nonstate actor, especially robbery or criminal violence committed at sea, on a river, or sometimes on shore, either from a vessel flying no national flag, or one flying a national flag but without authorization from a national authority. It does not normally include crimes on board a vessel among passengers or crew. The term has been used to refer to raids across land borders by nonstate actors.

thans from wikipedia and im not any of those things

Back in the good ol' days of vhs pirates you were lucky if it was in colour let alone in sync or all the audio was there. Cameras cams are dvd quality by comparison , Watch son of rambow for a better idea of what it was like. But you are right tho , sometimes there are 12,000 twats dl'ing some shite by canal street or ndn from noob nova just because its a blockbuster.
Edit> just read NS's comment yes there are fuckin' thousands of twats on noobnova and noob bay Dl'ing them.
