2D4U release is excellent, one of the best ones around, but I don't recommend keeping the DC and episode 19 from him as it has ghosting issues.

Thanks, man. Downloading and seeding as soon as I get home. Just in time for a rewatch.

>bitstarve
I said with the SAME filesize. A good lossy encode is all about size x quality ratio friend, and you should know these "ratios" are in the end of day, completely subjective and to the taste of the one watching it.

If you want to bloat the filesize even more than 2gb, than reencoding lossy to lossy is stupid, just watch the original m2ts. And if you want to be REALLY autistic about it, you can always load avisynth filters on MPC 32bits to fix the chroma bleeding issues. Heck, I did it myself.

If you don't like my target filesize, just donwnload Yurasyki 115gb release and stop bitching about something you won't even download. You have been shitposting of Eva BD threads ever since october, who is autist again?

I used 3 different sources to check that very specific scene colors. I thought It looked green too on a first look the smoke trails are white and Sachiel is supposed to be slightly green.

I assure you I removed the green tint on episode 01 and 02.

I was actually thinking about this this same morning, because I've been wanting to do a rewatch but I've been holding back just waiting for your version. Seeing this makes me so happy, thanks a lot.

Forgive me if this isn't the right place to ask.

If you're already into the very-slow x264 preset, why not feed a higher efficiency encoder like x265 or libvpx-vp9? Are they not mature enough (I know the 1.5 release of VP9 broke ABI backwards compatibility with < 1.5)?

Time to finally download this.

Thanks m8.

>>139096905
x265 is only better than x264 at very low constrained bitrates. Something like a ~200 megabytes 1280x720 digital anime would look much better in x265 than x264 at the same filesize. However, at very high bitrate with a noisy source such as this particularly release, x265 becomes very smudged compared to x264. So no, x265 is not mature enough despite all the myth, misinformation and propaganda being spread about it being "universally better than x264" That is simply not true. I even saw threads here on 4chan claiming x265 is better than x264 in all scenarios. Don't believe it.

Even so, I was considering doing a degrained 720p release for eva with small filesizes using HEVC, I even had half a dozen test encodes done. HEVC efficiency gets particularly amazing with SUBME 6 and 6 bframes, its quality almost double (subjectively) at around CRF 19 compared to x264 at the same filesize with regular SUBME 4 (very slow) preset.
But subme 6 is GLACIALLY slow, on my i7, it encodes at around 1.2 fps for a 720p encode. I still did it anyway.

But them, Fussoir made a nice HEVC release, (although a little bit bigger than my target filesize (200mb), so I gave up on the idea.

VP9 is a pain to work with, and when I did some test encodes comparing with x265, it was still worse than it. Actually, VP9 is not even better than x264 in any pratical scenario in my opinion.

Much appreciated, anon.

Will you put EoE in the batch?

>>139100015
Yes, I'm not sure if I'll reencode it or not. I'm doing some test encodes with slightly reduced filesize and improved settings to see if there is significant gain.
If not, I might as well just keep EoE outside of the batch and just do a V2 with a xdelta patch with the new improved subs.

What you guys think? Prefer EoE outside of the Batch?

>>139100471
outside

>>139093167
Congratulations on the release, Sephirotic. You're finally doing it.

>>139100471
Not him but I watched your original EoE encode and the only issues I noticed were a few in the english sub, like spaces before periods/exclamation points or the like if I recall. But the encode itself was good. So you might consider editing the sub a bit if anything and just releasing a patch or a sub file that fixes that if you want to go absolutely mad about it.

>>139100471
Yeah I think EoE should probably be outside the batch as a third file.

What about the BD extras btw, did you ever do those?

>>139094896
>You have been shitposting of Eva BD threads ever since october, who is autist again?
Nigga it's different people, a couple of times it was me. Why do you believe only a single autist can not like what you do?

I just think that using 10bit and raising the bitrate it's worth it even with a slightly bigger filesize. Apparently I'm not alone.

>>139101258
Only a few real obsessives want over 2gb IMO. Once you start getting that large, why sacrifice anything? Just go for the raw.

>>139096015
You mean in the entirety of NGE?

>>139101258
or you could go with 2d4u, Sephirotic's release is obviously 200GB HDD welfare tier laptop material.

>>139096054
Wait he's a hue?

>>139101451
Except RX explicitly stated he filtered a ton of grain. Only a few RX eps are bigger than Sephirotic ones and those are the ones RX turned off mbtree for as a test. In total I'd expect Sephirotic's to be larger

I deleted whatever encodes of NGE when the BDs were released, and got the 2D4U for the whole series.

You would be even more retarded than Asuka.

>>139101635
A lot of it is preference for grain or against it. I'd look at this v2 by Sephirotic and compare an ep or two to 2D4U and see which you prefer

>>139100889
>So you might consider editing the sub a bit if anything and just releasing a patch or a sub file that fixes that if you want to go absolutely mad about it.

That's precisely what I'm doing. Improving the subs, But I recon I can't improve to encode to less than 8gbs and still making it looking better.

>>139100938
I'll still do them, after the batch is done.

>>139101258
Nevermind raising the filesize, but do you realize that the benefit of 10bit is virtually nill for a bloated grainy source?

Do you realized your monitor is 8 bit, maybe even 6 bit?

>>139101582
Not A TON, but he filtered some grain on some episodes. Most of the episodes of his release were actually smaller than mine due to the Flac audio being over 400mb for a 5.1 track.

Like I said, those wanting absolute no compromisses betwen size vs quality, should probably go for Yurasyk release or the RAWs, but they will be the color corrections me and 2D4U did.

>>139101635
There is only one version of the classic Death and Rebirth so far, mine.

EoE you could go for commie, but IMHO it's too bloated. And the subs they used are the terrible old Manga DVD ones.

I already have RX's and I'm not happy with it either.
Right now there's no definitive NGE encode. One doesn't preserve grain, the other is in 8bit and bitstarved. As if people gave a fuck about filesize for fucking NGE BD!

I do. If you download an encode you automatically care about file size. If you don't then download the raw.

>>139102266
The bitch still ended up in a tub with slit wrists, there's more chance I'd be jealous of a rock than that failure.

>>139102126
Commie clipped off part of the picture which contained information in some scenes just because it is partially black due to cel movement. They're too lax to be doing something like NGE. They should stick to joke releases of modern anime with no historical value.

>>139102054
You have a professional Panasonic Plasma Monitor, yet you rely on Daiz for defining your standards and haven't done your own Eva encode?
kek.

>One doesn't preserve grain, the other is in 8bit and bitstarved.
Like I said, my V1 for most part, have MORE bitrate than 2D4Us, so if mine is bitstarved, his is too.

Like I said, just download Yurasyk's release, it's a good encode, and bloated as fuck, precisely the kind of encode guys like you that fell for the 10 bit meme would enjoy.

>>139102403

>>139102310
You don't understand. There's no difference between the raw or a over 100 GB "encode" and a 50/60 GB encode. Especially if it's in 10bit.

There is always loss on a lossy-lossy encode.
Watching the raw with real time video processing is better than reencoding.

Wait, no difference between a 50gb release and a raw release? Are you insane?

>Especially if it's in 10bit.

That is from D&R.
D&R has at least two layers of grain. The grain of the film master, itself, which doesn't look like it's 35mm, And the blown up amplified grain of the original scenes from the series, since it was scanned directly from the 16mm masters instead of recomposed animation.

It's a little bit too much IMO.

Stop buying all propaganda Daiz spourts here on /a/.

10 bit encode is hardly more than 10% efficient than 8 bit on very flat animation, only true benefit is reduced banding on such cases, but for everything else, if you get over 5% efficiency you'll be lucky. It's not even near as close as 25%.

But the latter is particularly bad, when they never actually tried doing proper double blind comparisons testes and were humbled by how their brain fools them with the placebo effect.

I think you need to work on your reading comprehension.

>>139105140

Nigger are you serious?

>>139105302
RX is absolutely right, although the EVA bds had some inconsistent DNR which, together with some blocky artifacts inherently of h264 compression may have cause some slightly blocky-banding in some scenes, but it has nothing to do with modern digital anime poor filtering causing bandnng on skies or flat dark textures. And even so, adding static f3kdb grain on Eva, would make everything looks dirtish and no better.

>>139105350
>These kind of people are no different than the "audiophilic" community that thinks a Tube headphone preamp with gold plated cables connected to a rare Yamaha turntable will make music listening better than going to a real live concert.
Of course it will make it better. First you can comfortably listen to it on your couch, second there is no noisy, smelly, ugly people around you, third there's no distraction at all, fourth you can do something else.
The epitome of stupidity is paying for a concert when you can have the better option for free.

>>139093167
Want to do some comparisons of your encode to the actual BD? I'd like to see the differences.

>>139105517
I didn't say that. There is no problem with 10 bits encode, the problem is with overbloated encodes. (which usually are 10 bit anyway, because of the meme).

>>139105566
Fuck off back to wherever you came from, retard.

IF there was any issue with seph's release (not knocking you seph, I love your encodes), it doesn't really matter because it's still the best encode available. For all those nitpicks, why not just encode your own release? The only reason I see for you to shitpost on /a/ is because you're a troll or attention whore.

>>139105558
kek.

>>139105602
Ok, I'll do some comparisons a little bit later, let me just finish reviewing the sandbox scene from EoE and I'll do it.

It's also important to notice, that static pictures are far from ideal to compare two very similar video files. Rate factor, flickering noisy are interpreted differently by our brain than just pixel peeping two static images. A more appropriated ideal comparison would have been playing two video excerpts and alt tabing between then without knowing which one is which. This is what I did, by the way, while testing for improved enconding settings for my v2. My tab key is kinda of stuck, due to that.

>>139105350
>>139105558
Comparing live music to an attempt at trying to make your home listening experience the best it can be is the most autistic thing I think I saw in this entire fucking thread. There are so many different variables to compare between the two, but I'll say this. You don't go to a live concert for music quality. Though I agree, the majority of those people probably wouldn't be able to consistently pass an ABX test for their FLACs that they love to circle jerk over.

Truth is, fansubbing is ultimately a egotistical thing. No one do it (nor anything in life) for pure altruism, we are all egocentric creatures by nature, so is natural that I receive some hate.
I only did this release because I'm a big fan of Eva and decided to do an encode for my own standards and since most of the effort where already done, It would be nice to release it on nyaa too.

Like I said before, quality x ratio is ultimately subjective. Different people will have different standards of quality, (although many that claim "high standards" are fooled by an elitism trends and are fooled by the placebo effect like I said earlier), so a single release will never please everyone. This is why I really respect what fussoir does, he made 4 different flavous of release with subtitles for everyone to try and fill the needs of everyone. IT would be near pefect if his 1080p version weren't degrained, too bad it was.

I never claimed my release is the BEST for everyone, but criticism of that guy that say my release is "bitstarved" is foolish, because it only refers to HIS OWN standards. It's arrogance to think his standard should be universal the way he says.

If people don't like my release, they are free to grab other releases, there are flavours for everyone, my just happens to fill the multi-language 8 bit range at just bellow 2gbs with multi-format subtitles.

Anyway, let me go back reviewing the EoE subs.

>Comparing live music to an attempt at trying to make your home listening experience the best it can be is the most autistic thing I think I saw in this entire fucking thread.

You missed the point.
I agree to what you said, a living concert is all about the experience, not the pure "audio quality", but I was refering to the specific trend of "tube amps" and overpriced headphones. Tube amps are extremely stupid because they add distortion and unbalance to the audio signal, yet, the Audiophilic community is so blind of EXAGERATED OVERPRICED and OVERSPECED tech (that's the comparison) that they sometimes forget what is more important about music: Listening, not hearing.

Seph, what charset do your subs use? Because I'm having troubles with the moonrunes in the OP.

Some eps don't need color correction. 1-2 have a yellow tint and so it's for the best to remove that, 19 is awful color-wise and 16 is a mess in a thousand ways. 19 was so bad RX had to do some color correction. There are some other eps Seph elected to color correct although I'm not sure how bad they are. He notes them in the torrent description.

>>139106968

So at this point we have the choice of that or a degrained, bitstarved encode(2d4u)? From what I'm hearing, at this point they're the best.

1,don't work with a single Blue-cast for the first half (opposite of yellow) it had to be done scene by scene. On the second half, an uniform blue cast corrected the yellow tint.

2 was more inconsistent than one, had to be done scene by scene. There was very strong dark green cast on the fight with Sachiel.

Worst by far is 19, then 16, then 24, than 22.
24 was a mess, in one shot had a strong purple tint, in the next one, was blue, in the next one was red for no apparent logic whatsoever. Death and rebirth and the Broadcast proved the rainbow casts of 24 was a fuck up on the renewal and not a director's choice. Pic related.

22 had more subtle color casts, but they were on all spectrum.. Very strong blue cast on the nigh-rain scenes, not present on the broadcast, and some yellow and red random casts here and there. Biggest issue of episode 22 was incosnsistent luminance, one scene was perfectly bright the next one, completely dark for no reason.

23 was mostly fine for the second half, it suffered more of the typical underexposure (low light) during the fight with the angel, and Some yellow casts in the first half. I noticed during the fight with armisael, there was a weak consistent red cast for the entire scene, I then noticed this cast was bresent both on the D&R, and broadcast so I realized this was a director's choice (just like on episode 16) and left it untouched.

Episode 21 was the best, I barely corrected colors at all in it, but did it anyway to make a consistent release of the DC.

Actually, Episode 05, 7, 17 and 18, are the following worst episodes, with strong yellow casts. I was planning on fix episode 05, but I ran out of time before I could start it.

Looks great, actually. From an unbiased standpoint, what can you say are your releases weak points compared to its strong points? Especially compared to other encodes current out, and the raw BD

>>139110250
2D4U's has noticeably less grain, I thought he only removed color grain but looks overall less grainy than sephirotic's

And why is the red border's sharper on Asuka's plugsuit?

>>139110550
>And why is the red border's sharper on Asuka's plugsuit?
2d4u seems to have some black bleeding on the edges of the suit

>>139110550
That is an unfortunately after effect of Awarpsharps' filter for removing chroma bleeding. It's noticeably more aggressive on the red channel than on the others.
Perhaps for episode 12 I should have used weaked strength for it. However, on the map screen, It improved the contourn Of the shadows of the characters, cleaning the bleeding.

2D4U and Yurasyk also used that for removing bleeding, Yurasyk has even stronger Red sharpening than my version, btw.

>>139110315
Well, the biggest issue may be precisely what I mentioned in this post. I'm not very experienced with Avisynth, an Ideal solution for removing color bleeding is actually converting to RGB and treating each individual color channel separetely, Fussoir taught me that, but the process was complicated and It had to be done with custom version of Avisynth plugins. His version has better processing on the color bleeding issue than mine, but also better than 2D4Us. RX used the same plugin I did, a simple awarpsharp pass only on the chroma planes.

For those that don't care much about grain, I think fussoir's 1080p release is definitely better size x quality wise, specially if you discount the audio dubs, it less than 1 gigabyte per Episode.

I receive a lot of criticism for not using pure CRF settings and letting the filesize increase, this may be the biggest issue. I honestly prefer my encode than 2D4Us in most aspects, after all I did this encode for myself, maybe one or other episode that I tried to constrain bellow 2 gigabytes and he left the filesize go wild, (episode 4 and 6, for example) his release may have a little bit more grain, I'd have to do some comparisons to see, but most episodes I checked were barely the same size, due to the over 400mb of FLAC audio he put in his episodes, and thanks to the Degrain he used, mine look a little bit more detailed. However, due to the degrain of RX's release, he gets more bitrate for the edges, so my edges looks a tid little bit dirtier than his.

Sephirotic: 8 bits, 1.8gb

Sephirotic's looks more detailed.
And they said 10 bits improved efficiency...

Dayz had me fooled.

>>139111701
2D4U is wasting a ton of space on two tracks of FLAC audio

>>139111680
Try my BR subs then, if you will. I spent A LOT of time making it the best I could to my liking. I always watch in english myself because of lack of decent PT subs.

Since I couldn't find a QC, there should be some distraction mistakes on my subs, if you could be so kind as to take not of those and send me by mail I'd be deeply appreciated and gladly send you the corrected subs afterward.

My email is on the README.txt

By the way, I know most Evan fans dislike (if not plan hate) 3.33, this also included myself. But nevertheless my autism still made me wanting to Do this little project: Pic related.

It should be done after the final V2 Batch.

I'll do two version, a 1600x900 8 bit encode, and a 1280x720 10 bits one.

By the way:

>>139112718
Depends on if you'll release the new EoE subs separately anyway. If so I don't really care if it's in the batch.

>>139112478
Please don't. Even if I don't like something someone has made I still respect their artistic work and vision and aspect ratio is a part of that.

Not that I can stop you or anything, I just don't see the point. It's not like a 16:9 aspect ratio is going to make the movie any better.

>>139112847
I will release the sub separately.

>>139112718
Please include it. Those who dont want it can just tick the file off...

>>139112478
Could've sworn my version from thora was already at 16:9

>>139112969
I think people just don't want to wait the week. Personally I don't understand that, considering this isn't supposed to be a quick release like his first one was.

>>139113195
He could always release it separately in a new torrent

>>139112907
>Please don't. Even if I don't like something someone has made I still respect their artistic work and vision and aspect ratio is a part of that.

While the academic 2.35:1 format permits some nice artistic creations, truth is that it was created for comercial reasons, to draw more people out of the television and to the cinema.
Many movies are actually mastered in an intermediate format and then cut in different aspect ratios for both the Cinema and Television.
Many movies have special masters for 16:9 as well as 2.35:1, picture is reframed for the television and expanded bottom and top.

While I can't expand bottom and top, I did a rough cut with the scenes framed to 16:9 and it looked good to me.

I think Anno did a good job using the full width of the 2.35 academic format, some shots looks pretty awesome, but it stills annoys the heck out of me, changing the format on a tetralogy. in the middle of it. And 21:9 displays are stupid, I'll never buy one, so I think it won't hurt having the option anyway.

>>139113423
It's still not your call to make. If the filmmakers wanted you to watch the movie in 21:9, you should watch it in that.

>>139112907
Technically speaking encoding takes away from their "artistic work", especially with colour correction. A crop is no different in terms of changing the original work.
>>139113423
As much as I'll still hate the rebuilds, an adjusted aspect ratio for better viewing would be nice. Its a project I'd be interested in hearing more about.
>>139113387
This is true, but really for someone who doesn't want it they can just unselect it in their BitTorrent client. Where he uploads(nyaa), its a fucking mess to have separate torrents all over.

>>139113731
and if the film makers wanted us to watch it with a piss color filter, should we be stuck with that as well?

>>139113731
I already watched in that, many times. It's not like 3.33 is a master piece artsy move that can only be fully understood on it's plenitude.
Heck, the first 8 minutes that aired on the television before the premier and everyone downloaded was actually a professionally reframed 16:9 movie with no Black bars for broadcast. The filmmakers decided to go that route instead of presenting a cropped preview. Pic related.

>>139113841
In the case of the color correction, I think it's the BDs or the aging of the cels that have destroyed the original artistic vision. I mean the character design sketches don't have everyone yellow

>>139113958
Not him but I think 3.33 is a pretty artsy movie. Everyone is dead and we're after a failed instrumentality. Almost nothing happens after the intro until the end but crazy brooding. It's really a maddening piece of work. So many strange red herrings and things the viewer won't understand ever. It's almost like watching NGE again...only shittier

>>139113841
>This is true, but really for someone who doesn't want it they can just unselect it in their BitTorrent client. Where he uploads(nyaa), its a fucking mess to have separate torrents all over.
For me the biggest issue is actually thinking the longevity of the torrent.

Adding the movie may make many people not seeding properly because they decided to not download it.

However, having two separate torrents, may incread the chance of the movie torrent by itself dying earlier. This is why I made a strawpoll, to see how many people are actually interested in a complete Eva Batch.

>>139114109
You should try uploading it to archive.org as historically significant material to try to get it preserved forever, especially for the color corrections, they have a dmca exemption :3

Somehow archive.org has entire romsets on it and no one takes them down

>>139114266
That would be interesting but japanese companies are very stingy and strict about piracy, I doubt they would be quiet about it. Maybe in future years and only the color corrected episodes...

>>139113978
So now its about maintaining the original artistic value, rather than the artistic value? If so then the master film would be the only copy to satisfy your needs. Pick one, anon.
>>139114109
Most people who go with you will most likely use you for EoE as well. Not sure of how many want another source for EoE if they go with your series. I personally think to include it because for one its a batch torrent, and two as you've said EoE will die faster on its own.
>>139114266
It will easily be uploaded to aB just like his other release. The files will not be lost.

>>139114688

Is this better than the 2D4U versions?

Too late

I'm already on episode 22 for my rewatch since the BDs got released

Not gonna rewatch it now just for some lighting

>>139115027
Animebytes is an archive site, most things especially something there stay seeded there as well.

>>139115027
Getting into aB is easy as fuck dude. The seed requirements are low too.
>>139115230
Actually, there are a lot of releases on there with single digit number of seeders, but most of them are shit.

>>139115141
Better colour correction, more grain. Read the other posts in this thread, mainly ones by Seph to see the main details.
>>139115219
What group did you go with?

>>139115361
so it's just more grain? that's it?
what about subtitles and stuff?

>Actually, there are a lot of releases on there with single digit number of seeders, but most of them are shit.
That's true, but for the most part a lot of those single digit uploads have a seedbox or two. The uploader will also typically keep it seeded as to not get their uploads pruned.

>>139115413
Smaller yet better grain and detail retention, color and light correction.
Subs are the same as 2D4U in English.

Thank you for your work, Sephirotic. Don't pay any mind to any bait or RAGE posts from Anon. Remember, this is 4chan.

If the image comparisons posted so far are representative this looks like a good release.

What exactly is special about this release?

>japanese subs are default
Come on, it's the opposite in every other release

So what are the sources for the BD? I thought they were lost?

>>139117452
Grain preservation and fine color correction. Look at some of the links to image comparisons which show it

>>139117756
Only ep16 was lost.

>>139117626
It has no forced subs. Defaults usually are in track order, English should've been first if you don't have a customized language priority.

>>139118414
The series uses the same translation from ADV, only difference is TS.

Although I also added Central Anime subs as a secondary option in my release.

Now, End of Evangelion has basically only two English subs since forever. A very old fansub one from central anime, and then after the DVD was release in the west, ADV made a translated that had been reused in the last 10 years.

The ADV translation has carried at least two serious translation mistakes and has some lazy long double lines.

Central Anime version translated mostly by a guy called "Bochan_bird", is overall better although have some minor translation mistakes too. But unfortunately, people that usually did Eva releases never really knew better about those differences and just went with the "official" ADV subs carring those mistakes. This included the old Bloat and Commie.

For my EoE release, I used Bochan's subs instead of ADV, but since it was a speedrelease, I didn't have the time to do some proper timing and fix the minor translation mistakes in it, until now.

I'm currently using a three-way script comparison, as well with my own Japanese to do a brand new improved sub for EoE which will be out together with my batch.

>>139093167
does it have the english dub?

>>139110250
I kept switch between the original and yours and I honestly can't see the difference.

Just a fun fact for those participating in the 8bit / 10bit discussion from earlier: if you're not using a Firepro series (AMD), Quadro, GTX 970 / 980ti / Titan X series (Nvidia) graphics card with a displayport / mini displayport connector, then you don't actually have 10bit color support on your card outside of DirectX surfaces.

The settings manager for the driver may show it, but it doesn't actually do anything outside of the mentioned product lines.

>>139119267
Just get the smaller then.

>>139119320
Any AMD card can output 10 bits video, not only the professional line.

>>139119320
I have an Quadro FX 1800 here, would that output 10bit?

>>139119656
Yes but it won't make difference if you display is not natively 10 bits. Also, it's irrelevant for Eva.

>>139120395
What about a CRT

>>139120414
CRT has theoretically near unlimited color reproduction due to being analogic, (the amount of "degrees" would be in practice only limited the precision of the Cathode and the SNR of the card's DAC and the cable itself) IIRC it was possible to feed 10 bits through the VGA cable with professional cards back in the early 2000's I have no idea if that is possible today, definitely not with consumer cards.

>>139119575
Unfortunately that's not true. Even in the latest firepro marketing material they advertise 10bit support as a feature unique to that series of cards. (there's a lot of noise about this, even on their forums, but see below for an explaination)

The Radeon cards can output a 10bit color signal, but internally the LUT is limited to 8bit. What this means is that the signal coming out may be 10bit, but the actual color depth is 8bit.

People may see differences when they use "10bit displays", but this is usually due to different display color presets and their limitations within the 8bit color range rather than actual 10bit color. Pic related

>I noticed during the fight with armisael, there was a weak consistent red cast for the entire scene, I then noticed this cast was bresent both on the D&R, and broadcast so I realized this was a director's choice (just like on episode 16) and left it untouched.

Episode 5 has some nasty corruption near 5:15, you may want to correct it before the final batch.

>>139128742
IIRC, only one sub of 2D4U had to be resynced, so, the audio should work fine.

I'd ask that you guys don't remux the audio tough, as this would stop seeding the torrent.

Many people don't know put you can actually put an audio track on the same foder with the same name as the video file, and MPC will load is at an additional audio track automatically, just like it does with a sub. This is easier than remuxig everything and don't kill the torrent's seeds.
