Sorry about that!** Before even starting, don't let the weird resolution scare you, give it a try. Note that for the first season (only the first, the second season didn't had it) there is an English audio track available, which is 5.1 Surround. It is included in the "Extras" folder of Season 01. About the OVA, there had two files available, a DVD sourced one and a WEB sourced one. I'm not sure what the difference between them is (I confess I haven't watched both of them to compare), but the one present here is the WEB one. Said WEB sourced file had two audio tracks, one being a very disgusting AAC that was really terrible, and a FLAC one which seems to be sourced from the DVD. I don't think the DVD had a lossless track for the audio, it felt very AC3'ish to me, but it is a whole 3 universes better than the AAC one, so I used it. Still related to DVDs, the Tokuten DVDs files had a field mentioning being 16:9 ratio, so I kept it that way. They were also bundled with the season 01 on the source I used, so instead of separating them into their own folder, they are included as season 01 extras. I wasn't able to find all the audio CDs related to this anime, but the ones included on the sources, the first season opening and the second season ending are included. Check the "Extras" folder of both seasons. --- As I've said on my previous release, this one is an experimental release. A lot of suggestions and testing went on for this one, it is quite a bit different than my other releases. I'm still not entirely sure about it. I like how the difference is not as big as one would expect, but there is still some difference and it seems to vary from content to content. Been testing this ever since before releasing Mitsudomoe, and I've seen some sources suffering more than others when doing this process. A good thing is, this makes the encoding process of the final frames easier, thus faster, and so I can use stronger and heavier encoding parameters that would be usually out of my reach. Another good thing is that since the final framesize is smaller, I can raise the quality target quite a lot without exploding the file size. What you guys think, is this process worth doing or should I stop and go back to the usual? As I've said before, the difference is not nearly as drastic as one would expect, but there is some difference there, and it varies from source to source as well. The plan would be to do this only to 1080pYUV420 content, as tests have shown that doing this to lower resolutions do affect them very negatively. Looking forward to hear some feedback on it, and remember that you can find me on IRC now. I have a juicy one planned for next, it is not a recommendation but a choice of mine, just something I do like. I will probably wait a day or two to see how this encode will be received, so I can decide if I'll do the same treatment to the next one or not, but yep it will be some good stuff. As usual, my releases are meant to be watched using mpv, preferably on a PC. It probably works on other players as well, but that is beyond me. --- # **Looking for Urotsukidoji (超神伝説うろつき童子) Raws, Remuxes or Good Encodes! High Priority.
