Interesting group name and pretty good rip, although it's not that hard to rip a menu-less screener.

9/9/9

The actual challenge for something like this (beyond ANY ripping) is actually getting your hands on the screener.

yes and props to those who do

this is a non-CCE encode.. most likely dvd shrink... cause you can see damn big blocks....

just look at the sample - heavy motion - and pause it...

A - CCE - proper would be really welcome!

Video: 4
audio: ?
movie: ?

You actually dont know what you are saying.. the source is obviously not touched.. its CBR and is to be watched in a standalone and not on PC coz its 30fps.

Quite the noobremark - there obviously was no reencode pass otherwise i'm sure they would have performed ivtc on it, but since it fitted there was no need and more importantly - there is no need either.

the NFO says untouched, why would they use dvd shrink on a dvd that can fit on a normal DVDR? DVDshrink doesnt even encode when it's untouchable, it's just a normal rip.

[sorry, cant comment on this release. just wanted to point this out]

I was just commenting on the rip, sorry. But yes, I agree very hard to get your hands on these DVD Screeners.

Yeah.. great job on that.. no doubt about it. Dunno what the cooperation between CTP/BRUTUS and CuNT was for this release, but it's surely a great job on all 3.

Only weird coz i know CuNT normally does high quality classics (imdb top 250/criterions).. no nukes there.. so they obviously know their shit.. but now suddenly a dvdscr ? And not just a plain dvdscr.. a big fucking title too ?

Ah well.. time will tell

Great job.. thats for sure

this time of year is oscar season, when all the dvd screeners are given out to the judges. this year the MPAA paid a company called Kiss to make a specially encrypted dvd player to send out to judges, and obviously the dvd screeners only play on this special dvd player (checkout the article: http://www.mpeg-playcenter.com/kiss...theres_more.htm)

i bet this is a component rip from the Kiss player. but, remember how the Hulk guy got busted? the production company burned serial numbers into the video, and you couldnt see it with the naked eye... thats the main thing these groups need to watch out for.

video - 7 - some microblocking, might be noticable on a large hdtv or projector. beautiful colors, uuuNNNNFFFFFFFFFFFFFFF

audio - 10 - perfect

movie - ?

this is an awesome treat, thanks cunt/ctp/b!

kiss, danish company, love my kiss dvd-player. Streams xvid like a dream!

Bout the movie, great and interesting, a master piece in my mind. Look at the imdb rating. A bit blocky, but hey, oscar season is my season. Films fly like the dvd+r out of my computer. Thanks guys. !

7/8/9

Posted by lalalaland on 12-25-2004 05:05 PM:

thanks for your post vcd fogie...

because the quality on this was is certainly not good at all... blocky and stuff... hence the reason why I thought about dvd shrink.... but ofcourse the thing you said makes more sense...

cheers

Posted by porco556 on 12-25-2004 11:45 PM:

Well, I was preparing for the worst with all the "blocky" comments. But when I watched it, it was MUCH better than I set my expectations for. But, it is there.

Definitely worth a watch. Quality ain't retail for sure, but the blockiness only really caught my eye couple times throughout the film (I was enjoying the movie... If I watched it agian, I would gripe more ).

Good movie, well worth it (even for a DVDScr). It was a merry christmas for sure.

Video 8/10 - A perfect 10 would be untouched, which this is not. BUT, better than some retail encodes I've seen.

Nice job CuNT... And I mean that in the nicest way possible

:: EDIT ::

Quick technical specs about the encode. Was approx a 5270kbit/sec CBR (constant bit rate). WHICH is not bad!! Alot of the retails we get are like 3500VBR (variable bit rate). Granted VBRs go up to 9200kbit/sec and less chance of blockiness (if encoded properly). But 5200 is still around 60% of perfect (or as perfect as DVD can offer) picture quality wise.

Personally, not a fan of CBR (this one was one of the better ones I've seen) but I can't wait to see how nice the video will look when they do around a 4800kbit/sec VBR R1 retail. Or untouched . Or, by then maybe dual layer discs will be super affordable.

:: EDIT (again) ::

All the above doesn't count for large HDTVs. Man... I watched this again on my big TV. SUPER interlaced. Scrap the artifacting issues, the interlacing was so plentiful.

Posted by Pebosjan on 12-26-2004 04:45 AM:

Exactley, its not someting you notice but, its there. 7=)

Posted by Extractor on 12-26-2004 10:03 PM:

Movie - 10 Great movie, really what I needed for Christmas

Video - 7 considering it's a DVDSCR. No naggy B/W scenes, but interlaced video

Audio - 9 not many effects or so in this so I guess it's pretty good

help a old guy out

Somebody help me. I downloaded this bad boy via bit torrent, used hjsplit to join the files. The file which is 4.7G is not readable. I saw the NFO that it was an IMG so I renamed it but NERO or DVD decrypter cant recognize.

what am i doing wrong, or is there a better piece of software to burn to DVDR from this type of file
