#### **v2 Notice:** Overhauled encode with improved dot-crawl removal, chroma noise reduction, and compression artifacts treatment. See comparison screenshots. Also applies additional subtitle QC that fixes missing dialogue lines @ 12:28, adds some additional translations, and performs further retiming to eliminate residual scene bleeds among other fixes. Includes unstyled modified subs for those that prefer them.  ___ #### [**Movie Information**](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/They_Were_Eleven) ### **Video** Source | Resolution | DAR | Format | Bitrate | Framerate | MediaInfo :---: | :---: | :---: | :---: | :---: | :---: | :---: | R1 DVD | 710 ✖ 480 | 4:3 *(Anamorphic)* | H.264 10-Bit | ~5000 kbps | 23.976fps | [**Link**](https://pastebin.com/YWiHws3C) ### **Audio** Language | Channels | Format | Bitrate | :---: | :---: | :---: | :---: | Japanese | 2ch | AC3 | 192 kbps English | 2ch | AC3 | 192 kbps ### **Subtitles** Language | Style | Format | :---: | :---: | :---: | :---: | :---: | English | Styled Modified R1 Dialogue | ASS | English | Styled Modified R1 Signs/Songs | ASS | English | Unstyled Modified R1 Dialogue | SRT | English | Unstyled Modified R1 Signs/Songs | SRT | English | Unstyled Unmodified R1 Dialogue | Vobsub | English | Unstyled Unmodified R1 Signs/Songs | Vobsub | #### **Filters used:** DDComb, KNLMeansCL *(for chroma noise removal)*, DFMDeRainbow5, XAA, LSFmod, FineDehalo, f3kgrain, aWarpSharp2 *(chroma sharpening only)*, Hysteria, BalanceBorders #### [**Encode Comparison vs. Source & v1 Release**](https://slow.pics/c/mWCUcW5X) **Updated Notes:** An updated encode for this classic SF film. Filtering to reduce dot-crawl, haloing, aliasing, as well as UV sharpening and noise removal to eliminate chroma bleed and rainbowing were applied. Slight luma sharpening applied to reduce source blur. Luma-adaptive grain matching was also applied in the dark & midtone regions to ameliorate source macroblocking. Subtitles were further overhauled by me to included various QC fixes to the retail script, add several missing lines, typesetting, and retiming. Also a signs-only track is included along with the original unmodified vobsubs. DVD extra included.
