Sahara *SVCD* - TELECINE - SAOSIN

Wow I know you're all thinking hey a TC this early tra la la thnx SAOSIN... ehh you might have something coming to ya

The audio on this thing sounds like they recorded it through a fish bowl or something, it may be direct but it's really hollow with no base at all.

The picture they left two large black bars.. why not just resize when you export the mpg boys? It's not so hard to maintain AR and cut off these black bars... Also gets pretty damn pixelated when viewed in FS. I guess some of this can be forgiven seeing how early this came out, but the encode on this was sloppy at best.

6/6/?

Posted by geoffbob30 on 04-19-2005 04:44 PM:

i thought this was a very good release pic was excellent, after adjusting the colour on my tv it was spot on, i did not notice any pixalation but i did go and make a cuppa, i agree the sound wasnot so good but overall an excellent release.

Alrighty , i watched Constitine , Sin City , Amit Horror , threads, not only did everyone comment on quality but littlery beg for SAOSiN to release Sahara , i didnt think myself SAOSiN would do it, but here it is ..

As mentioned not the greatest TELECiNE out there , but as everyone said would be very nice for a TELESYNC , so remember as everyone littlery begged for this , SAOSiN once again brought you a very watchable copy of a movie when no other grps would ...

LOL .. SAOSiN going to E-Donkey to download an xvid and re-encode it , ya ok .. Im sure SAOSiN has great suppliers as we all seen from the past TS's , DVDScr , TC's they have brought us. Yet you think they re-encoded something , lmao.

Isnt maVen a thing of the past ? , Seriously when's the last time maVen released something for everyone to leech ? but i also heard a rumor that selling is more importaint then releasing these days ... dunnno

As mentioned this would be nice for a TS, There are black bars on the side , bit of an orange tint from the sample , bit blocky/pixelated on the standalone & tv. Sound has a muffle to it , direct but not DTS.

The theaters here are gay and didnt show this movie , so been waiting on a nice copy of it. Thankx again SAOSiN for a very watchable release .

As a TC:
6/6/?

the screenshot i made, was from a TS, and wasn't from saosin rls, and i said about maven cuz the credits was french.

and as far as i know, the main caper of mvn/vcd got busted a while back ago ( and i didn't see any saosin flick with opening french credit also ) first in a while i've got few samples of by a friend who might know the guy.

i am saying, i got screenshot of something else that been working on by a friend.

as for bringing up maven, is the caper that been with few oldies group seem to be arround again. after some time off i guess



So your saying your maVen/VideoCD supplier got busted , is back, is your friend, and is working on a TS of Sahara , and is with some oldie grps. LOL , wouldnt that make him/her a risk as well as the oldie group their in

Anyway i got better things to do then bitch all day. At the end of the day at least SAOSiN is giving us what maVen, VideoCD, Centropy isnt ... Nice Watchable , and for the most part, excellent quality TS's, TC's, DVDScreeners and releasing for people like me ... the leechers.

Seriously , who gives a fuck about the source, before this we had an unwatchable CAM with missing parts , now tonight , i have a new movie to watch. Thanks to SAOSiN.

Props to SAOSiN for continuing to release for the leechers.

Out of nowhere Saosin arrived and turned the scene inside out.These guys are on fire.

From the sample 10/10/?

Thought this was a ts not a tc.Sorry my mistake.

Watched some of cd 1 and as a tc I rate it 8/8/?. Didnt notice the pixelation on my standalone.

I thought there was a touch of orange, but still, the colors are very nice. I really find it strange from some people to whine like they do. Black lines on the side? This ruins it for you, hell, it's widescreen, get over yourself damnit. This thing isn't pixeled and the sound is good. Yes, they've had more clearer sound in previous releases, but this is very nice and to say it sounds like a fishbowl is whack. Have the people aren't even voting, just complaining. This is better than anything out there and remember there are some releases we can't get a good copy for...Guess Who? Slam me, I don't care, but rate the thing and stop trying to impress others with your complaints laced with knowledge of bragging. If it is so easy to rencode to take out the bars, do it you knob.

For the person saying this is russian re-encode, get a life! since wen wud SOASIN re-encode another release, they have their own sources, and I think this release is french, not russian.
Seing as the pictures from Roger show credits with the words "Et" and "Scenario (with an accent over the e, but i dont know how to do them..)

Ha, make it clear which source your screenshots are from next time, coz i do not see something that tells you...?

As for re-encoding, that is still bollocks, they may have got their hands on the same source, but they havent re-encoded the other release.. I am welcome for some english audio anyway

lol
as a tc, doesn't deserv more then a 4, and a ts i would say 8, but i heard a rumour about a maVen ts of this shit ... dunnno



This is what i was referring to you by saying you was wrong.. as this is definitely NOT from e-donkey and i highly doubt SOASIN have downloaded that russian release, re-encoded it and released it,

I am just saying that they have received their release from their own source, whatever it may be.

Anyway.. from the 1st disk

Vid 8 very VERY watchable.. slight orange tint, but so what, its a great pic

Aud 8 Nothing wrong with it, easy to understand, slightly hollow

Deff the best one yet, and probably the best one for a while..

Posted by HaLiKuS on 04-19-2005 06:39 PM:

I side with IRC_Movie fan, but could care less about the politics behind the release.
The colours and AR ARE sloppy.
6/6/5 (As a TC)

As far as im concerned, scene releases should be "open source" that if one group has mint video but cam sound, and another group has direct sound that they can add to the release they should do it, so long as they credit the original group in the .NFO . That is of course, if it isnt about the pride or $, and just about releasing the best possible copy to the masses...


Posted by Redemption1980 on 04-19-2005 06:40 PM:

Ahh, someone let the kiddies have caffeine again

This isnt too bad a release, its not the best TC ever, but its easily the best release yet.
The picture is quite nice, and although its grainy, its not that bad on a TV, and every TC has grain anyway.
Sound is very tinny though, and not my ideal listening experience, but ok for some.

Now, this is not that blocky, and if your zooming a 2:35:1 SVCD film to FS, then you deserve a shit picture, and to those complaining about the side bars, learn how to encode first, and learn why they are there, if you dont know, then dont bitch about other peoples skills when you obviously dont have any yourself.
And it also proves that the ones moaning, are the kiddies who still watch movies on the PC Monitors, ive managed much larger bars than that, and they still didnt appear on the TV,

Google TV Overscan.

Yeah m8 you tell the whinnig bunch of know fuckall tossers!!
Looks like a good one to me all this slamming grps is bullshit if it was unwatchable then tell us!!
If its a decent copy like this rls do as my rarther frank friend above says!!! DO BETTER YOURSELF OR SHUT THE FUCK UP!!


Posted by fil_j on 04-19-2005 09:56 PM:

i have watched this and it's all good for me, no pixelaxtion, didn't have to change the colour, good sound.
i would be happy with all early releases being this good.
anyway rant over
ratings
video - 9
sound - 9
movie - 5 more crap wouldn't pay to watch it


Posted by NeVeRLiFt on 04-19-2005 09:58 PM:

Thanks SAOSIN!

This is a really nice TC and its out fast, what more can you damn leechers want?

This looks great on my 30" TV and the sound is fine. There are players out that can adjust the AR and remove the black bars and anyone can adjust the color and contrast to suit their taste.

I score this a 8.5/8/9

Very good comedy/action movie.
I recommend catching the special on Matthew McConaughey where he drove across the states in a truck pulling the trailer/billboard promotional and talking to regular everyday people and doing interviews. Seems to be airing on the E! Entertainment channel.


Posted by ilickb4istik on 04-19-2005 09:59 PM:

Posted by razorbladex90 on 04-19-2005 10:56 PM:

So it might not be saosins best release...but maybe they had problems with getting a good source for this movie? It did seem to take them longer to release it than it normally takes them to release movies. And considering the quality of the other two releases of the movie, at least this is watchable. When they've been doing such great releases lately is it really fair to begrudge them one difficult release? I bet you'd all change ur tune if they decided not to release anything else because of all the bitching! Thanks Saosin... some people appreciate the effort you guys make...keep up the good work

Video - 7
Audio - 6 (yes, it was a bit ropey..sorry!)
Movie - 8

nice release 9/8/9


Posted by Jebus on 04-20-2005 01:09 AM:

Lets be fucking serious here......

With all due respect to Saosin, this release is not a 9 or 10 in ANY way.....remember: this is a TC.......

Video is off.....not by too much, but Saosin has set the bar so damn high for themselves that I suppose the problem is that it's not even as good as their usual TS's (which have been fucking brilliant).......but it's still worth an 8 as a TC.
(most of the problems people are having with any dark scenes are probably due to the blinding sunlight found in the bright scenes......you know.....cuz it takes place in the desert)

Audio is rough to listen to......very hollow.....I understand the "fishbowl" comment and have to agree......but it still gets a 7 for audio as it could be much worse & everything is heard clearly.....

All that being said, this is Saosin's first shot at a TC (at least that i'm aware of) and I can only say good things about it as a first attempt.....for what it's worth as a total leech (i know.....it ain't worth shit.....but still) I thank Saosin for all their recent work, and even want to thank them in advance for everything they've yet to put out. It's hard work and NOBODY has to do it.

PS- This is definitely the one to get....prob for a while....

I don't know why so many people are complaining about this release. The colors are fairly typical of a TC and yeah there are black bars but I don't really see that as a reason to complain. Audio isn't DTS but considering the previous releases this is a god send.

9/7/8

8/7/7


Posted by The5Venomz on 04-20-2005 06:03 AM:

I don't understand most people on this board...These groups go out of their way to bring us these movies...Saosin has been bringing us great releases, and this is another one...The sound is alittle hollow, but the video is great. I don't see the black bars everyone is speaking about...It's full wide screen when played on my DVP642...Enjoy the movie and stop complaining over complete BS....


Posted by vission on 04-20-2005 07:34 AM:

Middle of disc two currently, so good idea of how to judge the rest of video/audio quality, give the video an 8, no real orange tint to me, could be my color setup for the tv currently, who knows. I give the sound a 7.5 ... maybe 8 but it's a bit hollow and crackles here and there, nothing major though, like others have said, most watchable release to date, thanks again saosin.


Posted by sleeper0 on 04-20-2005 07:42 AM:

very watchable considering how early it is and compared to the poor TS's out there, however generally worse than average when rated against telecines

In addition to the repeated comments about pixelation and color, it is also definitely not in perfect AR - likely this was the source and not the encode, and is no means unwatchable or severe - it's not for example a 16:9 source at 4:3 or anything of the sort -- but if you look carefully at actor's faces that you are familiar with they are all obviously a bit too thin. So slightly bad AR.

Based on normal telecines:
video - 6
audio - 7
movie - ?


Posted by pisanty on 04-20-2005 09:01 AM:

7,
7,
7 "Feel Good Movie"

For me

I havent rated anyone before but compared to there previous release this is a little below still very watchable though.

Is it wrong to rate RLS based on the groups previous efforts ?

Pis


Posted by frak on 04-20-2005 11:01 AM:

Talk about a bunch of complainers.

I watched this on the big screen tonight - video was good
and so was the audio. I don't know what yer all crying about.
Probably the same meatballs who vote 9's for POT cams.
SAOSIN is one of the best groups out there right now.

video:8
audio: 7.5
movie: 7


Posted by ffunkyymonke on 04-20-2005 11:11 AM:

some one just said is it wrong to judge a group on past efforts?

I think yes!! this is a quality rls from SAOSIN not quite their usual but a fanny's hair off!! Much better than anything any1 else has done you should vote compared with everyones efforts not just this group or you'll end up with crap rls's gettin good reviews just because its better than the last crap they did!!!!! think about what your saying people or you could look very stupid!!!!!


Posted by CCkid on 04-20-2005 11:41 AM:

Rated by sample only. Video out to TV and audio out to 6.1 surround. The video looks good, a little hue problem. The audio is missing considerable bass even with woofers cranked up all the way. Still a good release!

V-7
A-7
M-?


Will rate movie after I watch the complete release. Thx Saosin for your efforts, they are appreciated by most.

i dont understand some of the kiddies that rate these videos.. why is it giving negative feedback is considered whining? and why do most of you misspell whining... as a tc.. this is not good.. its average at best.. especially the sound.. as a ts.. video is good, sound sucks....

is that whining... maybe i should bring the brute force back to the mod crew?

no idea why people are saying not saosins best release blah blah, a group does the best it can with the source, and i think they have done a shithot job, all groups deserve respect for releasings shit it be good quality or bad saosin have produced some stunning releases and this is one of them stop bitching.

8.5/9/8

good vid for TC .. nothing spectacular
audio sounds like it was recorded in a toilet .. terrible

rating for TC

8/4/?


Posted by manichawk on 04-21-2005 04:10 AM:

Well I haven't seen many post about the particulars about the annoying sound beeps, similar to those in Robots from Saosin,
But as for the picture quality i have no problem with that and quite great in full screen

8/5/9

Good to see a few people are bothering to mention the audio of this release. Sure, the video is decent enough (very nice in fact, if a little "bright" at times) the audio is a bit cabbaged though - all of the high-end sounds are fucked so you'll need to turn down your equalizer otherwise it sounds like arse... Once I'd got the audio sorted (as best I could, it still wasn't great) the movie was ok, I suppose.

V - 7
A - 5
M - 6

Talking

Saosin are definitely leading the pack, this release though has a basic sound recording, someone forgot to press a button or plug in properly (check your plug guys may be faulty) or something! If you listen to the sound of the credits at the end you will hear what we normally expect from saosin.

For these reasons I give the following
V-8.5 bright in some sections, CD2 has some pixelation
A-5 see above
M-8 I enjoyed it! Good old adventure and a hero that does not go over the top. I will curtainly the buy it (DVD) when it comes out.


Posted by victormac on 04-21-2005 04:17 PM:

This is how i see it.

Video: 8.6
Audio: 7.0 (Only because sound has no bass)
Movie: 8.2

Thanks SAOSIN, good release.

GREAT JOB SAOSiN!!!! This was VERY FAST indeed! The Video was excellent! Maybe a little pixelated but not bad at all. The Audio on the other hand, was pretty bad. It sounded hollow and tinny the whole way through. It was tough to configure my Home Theater System so that the sound wouldnt resonate. It might have been Direct Audio or whatever, but it dang sure wasnt DTS. Anyhow, overall the flick is VERY watchable. The movie itself is very entertaining. Thanks ALOT SAOSiN! And Keep Em Coming!

Well, not saosins best work, however its a great release!

The sound seems slightly hollow, but its still good enough, - 6

The video has that border like on the saosin constantine tc, easily cut off if your reencoding to put on dvd like me . The video doesnt have the orange tint some people have spoke about, the movie is in the desert and it looks orange! i saw this at cinema and it looked the same, but it was lighter, this tc is a little dark. The video also has some pixelation in motion scenes but its nothing really when ur watching on tv! - 7

Movie - 7 ok but u know just ok.

- definatley get this release, if u wait u will wait till retail for a better version imo

is that whining... maybe i should bring the brute force back to the mod crew?



Strange that napalm because I tend to find that it is generally the kiddies in here who rate things overly harshly and unfairly like the spoilt little bastards they are

Having said that, the sound was like it was being played through a sock but the picture didn't pixellate noticably on my standalone.
8/6/6

I just finished watching it and noticed that. As they were getting ready to leave the theater they musta tapped the jack the rest of the way in. The audio clears up nicely so you can enjoy the credits


Posted by lashy on 04-23-2005 11:47 AM:

i thought the film was good all those of u moaning if u could do a better job feel free to try.


Posted by karchambault on 04-23-2005 08:45 PM:

Just finished watchin. Pretty good release considering... Video had a little pixelation, but can't complain. Audio however is another story... If audio had been the same throughout the movie as it was during the credits, would have given it a 9, but as it was "tinny" and "hollow" throughout, I've gotta ding it. Overall, movie was pretty good. A little predictable at times, but definately a good popcorn movie for the family.

Video: 8
Audio: 6
Movie: 8

watchable as hell, sat through whole thing. Not a bad "fun" movie (like The Rundown... you just watch it straight through. Nothing terrible, nothing amazing, but not a waste of time)

It's too bad something was with the audio that apparently removed all the sound effects of helicopter gunshots and tank cannons (watched on TV via XBox, that was the only odd part)

I concur with previous statements; it does seem like a plug wasn't in all the way...

still, minor quibbles aside, perfectly watchable release, very nice.

V/A/M
9/8/7
