Common, for a movie like this, I was at least expecting AC3. And 607 kbps? That's all? An American Haunting (previous release) even had 915kbps... Now the video looks bit grainy. Not a bad effort, but I hope they do better next time!

v: 7.8
a:7
m:???? Waiting for an ac3 release

CuriousJotos isn't too shabby, they do decent work. It's a 6 pass CCE Avg VBR 4000k. Menus reencoded Extras stripped (this is all stated in the nfo). Now that you have told me Rep will be rls'ing it, i'll probably hold off on burning the dvd.

Wouldn't they have to find a reason to proper the rls tho?

yep... guess diamond is under new management eh... hope this doesn't mean they'll continue making rubbish rips... hope this was just a one-off mistake... perhaps diamond was in a hurry, and forgot to change a few settings on their newbie autoripper program, and so made a 1cd rip, then just made up some bs in their nfo to justify it ill still get it, then just rip it myself when the dvd shows up at the rental store.

we can only hope diamond doesn't get their hands on mission impossible 3 or the third xmen film before another group does... id hate to see those as 1cd mp3 rips as well!

Last time i grabbed a MoMo rip, it was encoded from the Downsampled DVDR, so although it might be AC3, vid quality could be worse, but things could have changed with MoMo since then.

I agree, i was dissapointed at a 1CD rip, but certain movies are very hard to make into 2CD's, yeah turning B-Frames off can help, but it dont help when scene rules dictate that the max resolution cant be say 720x304

This looks and sounds servicable enough anyway.

8/8/?

Decent enough release, more so than this film deserves. Pile of absolute shite.

For the extra bandwidth and quality increase personally I'd just stick with diamond's release.

Yea which is why I doubt they will
They would have though cos Diamond & Replica are the same group (so to speek).

Might get the dvd9 & do it myself...

Because the label DVDRip doesnt automatically warrant a perfect rating.

This is ok video wise, especially for the size, but could of and should of been better, and the audio is only 2 channel mp3, so that why the low ratings.

possibly a new encoder for diamond? 1cd bit of a mistake heavy pixelation,10's and 9's are way overated.

this one needed a 2cd.

8/8/?

its a pity theres so many diamond fanboys here artificially boosting the ratings and hyping it up when its quite a rubbish rip... yeah as the other guy said, for a 1cd rip of a 2 hour film, its pretty good... that doesn't mean diamond made the right choice making it such a low quality overall release...

Great release by Diamond, I don't know about everyone else, but it's more cost effective and organized to have your xvid's divx's fit on one cdr.
