Not Quite Dead

Everyone’s active in the staff channel and all, but no one other than us encoders do anything. ;A;

Anyways, here’s a status just to feed you all.

Kiss x Sis: I have no clue what’s left to do. I think it’s ready for release encode? (That’s our organization skills for you.)
PH WS 06: Whatever comes after the workraw.
PH 21: At final encode.
Canaan 09: At editing At QC.

Also, we’ve been considering dropping the Pandora Hearts WS episodes and subbing the DVDs instead. Feel free to post some input on this.

That is all.

    Depends… Will the DVD releases be in .avi? ^^;

    Canaan 9 at qc. Someone get asd to do it. Can’t get on irc atm . Don’t release until I’m on though.

  3. Asa says:

    Well, at the speed you’re releasing the WS, the DVD releases are going to get ahead of you. In fact you’re already at a tie right now. So… as long as you’re speedy with the DVDs, I’d say go for it.

  4. asdf1248 says:

    @Yuna-Sama: They should be doing both avi and mkvs.

    But…yeah. DVDs. Definitely.

    Personally, I think it’d be easier to encode from DVDs. It should save me the hassle of encoding losslesses, which is one of the main reasons WS encoding takes forever.

    > Canaan 9 at qc. Someone get asd to do it. Can’t get on irc atm . Don’t release until I’m on though.

    Relayed to the joint channel.

    > Depends… Will the DVD releases be in .avi? ^^;

    We’ll do .mkv and .avi in any case.

    Also, no matter what we decide on, we’ll do WS 06 before any DVDs.

  6. Rika says:

    Whatever that is most convenient for all of you guys will be fine :) DVDs are definitely something to look forward to.

  7. Espada No4 says:

    Glad to hear PH21 is almost done.
    And I don’t watch the WS versions so I don’t have much of an opinion on that part. :P
    Oh, and what’s up with this new theme? lol

  8. Koishi says:

    please do dvd releases
    and are you doing the specials to?

  9. Dango says:

    well, if we do dvd releases, there won’t be anymore crappy audio and the quality of the video will be higher.

  10. Zor says:

    What Dango said.

    > Oh, and what’s up with this new theme? lol

    The old one sucked.

  11. Anna says:

    I would really prefer the DVD ^^

    I like highest quality possible in everything. lol. Speed isnt really an issue.

  12. Xero says:

    I assume the dvd’s are WS. so yea that sounds like a good idea

  13. Yuna-Sama says:

    Ok if it’s .avi count me in for DVD releases then… =3

  14. Takura says:

    dvds, the audio from releases elsewhere sound like my anal cavity after volcano burritoes

  15. Oosran says:

    DVD’s, do ‘em, drop ‘em WS’s : D

  16. teohhanhui says:

    Forget about the WS since you’re too slow on it anyway. :P

    DVD!! ^^

  17. XDarkAngel says:

    I DLed the first retrace iso from share and watched it.

    I think doing DVD releases is better than using those WS raws… just be prepared to drown in GURAIN… no idea if that much grain is filterable w/o huge quality lost or if it is needed at all. Personally, I’m disappointed in the quality of both TV and DVD sources.

    > The old one sucked.

    The old banner was better imho.

  19. flappy says:

    DVD any better? If it is, den DROP WS and do DVD :D ! I like it better that way

  20. Asa says:

    The DVD raws I watched didn’t have any noticeable grain, but then again I didn’t get them from Share…

    As for whether the animation quality itself improves any, the only episode so far that has changes is episode 2. And it looks very nice. c: Unfortunately the rest of the episodes still have their QUARITY intact.

  21. 蒼穹 says:

    > The DVD raws I watched didn’t have any noticeable grain, but then again I didn’t get them from Share

    Maybe i got a fake .iso then? Cause the grain was almost unbearable to watch, especially in dark scenes (ep1)

  22. Zor says:

    PH quality is just generally shit. Not much we can do about it. Even if we used crazy filters, we can’t really fix it up.

    Anyway, thanks for the input — I’m pretty certain we’ll do the DVDs. Not sure if we’ll start from episode 01 or 07 yet, though. We’ll see.

    Edit: Probably, 07.

  23. wierdos says:

    why is this site so wierd.. why is there so much trash talk about nonsense

  24. ^_^ says:

    Whoa, definately do the DVD releases ^^ Those would be archived for sure forever on my laptop <3

  25. Wanderer says:

    DVD hands down for PH. Since it’s already out and much easier to work with than raw WS, also hope that Ep.6 would be from DVD aswell

  26. fubar says:

    Start it from the beginning if you’re going to start doing DVD rips, please, you’re only 5 eps. into it, not 15! Please make it worth archiving (Please, Please, PrettyPlease)!!!
