So, in reality, fansub's BD encodes (the good ones, like yours, FFF's etc) are actually better quality than if you were to watch the original BDs? Like here http://screenshotcomparison.com/comparison/107367#_=_

That's the aim, yeah. When you encode you can apply antialiasing, sharpening (within reason), debanding, and so on, and you can encode in 10bit which preserves gradients much more efficiently than the 8bit BDs. I definitely wouldn't want to watch the Shirobako BDs straight because they look terrible without heavy filtering.

If you took a BD, ripped what ever's on it off and then watched the actual BDMV, would it be the same quality as if you put the actual disk into your bluray player and watched it like that?

Yes

1/4 of the cour left! Looking forward to BDs never as they have over 90mins of extra content and that's just the first cour

I can't believe they aired 15 episodes' worth of content in the first cour and that still wasn't enough

Hi Xythar, how you do your anime_keyframes.log file for timing?

For BD encodes I just put scxvid("whatever_keyframes.log") in the avs file since I generally do those in one segment.
For TV encodes (which I usually do in multiple segments), I make the keyframes after the encode is finished using the batch file here: http://unanimated.xtreemhost.com/scxvid.htm

How much do you spend for servers/xdcc/seeding and the like? Or rather, what exactly is your setup like?

I have a single online.net server for all of the above (ftp, server-side encoding, and the rest). It costs 72 eur per month but the cost is split between a few people.
If you don't need a server to encode on you can probably get away with less.

I'm trying to set hotkeys for his automated linebreak script.

It should autocomplete the action names, then

Is the smooth motion setting on madvr taxing on hardware?

I've never done tests. If you're losing frames with it on it will probably be fairly obvious since the motion won't be smooth anymore.

It's amusing to see anons answering each other. Anyway, are you a fan of romantic drama?

If it's good, I suppose? I mean, I liked White Album 2...

>k >ic >ok. You're hanging out with herkz way too much!

Well it's not like I can add much to the discussion in these cases. It kind of proceeds without me.

Oyasumi was a fansub. | even if that's the case, i wouldn't trust fansub from that long ago. just trust me and watch R1. I'm sure Xythar feels the same.

I'm just not watching the show!
But yes, I usually go official for old shows since the quality of old fansubs is exceedingly dubious.

is there a good release to watch for welcome to the nhk? | that anon should watch R1 release from exile-destiny. there are no fansubs that i know of

>I'm trying to catch up || Gambatte Xythar, you have like a month for half the cour!

Implying I don't have like three more episodes almost ready to go

So I'm guessing that you guys won't be doing UBW season 2 next season? So, will it be done when BDs come out?

I'm trying to catch up so we can do season 2 on time, but we'll see.

best subs for Haruhi?

I watched with a.f.k. but I'm not sure their hardsubbed avis would hold up in the present day...
