_______________________________________________________________________________
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
GENERAL:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
. Downsampled DVD-9 release size must be at 4.3-4.37GB,
|
||
|
|
unless source is DVD5.
|
||
|
|
. PAL after NTSC and NTSC after PAL is always allowed,
|
||
|
|
and DVD9 after DVD5 and DVD5 after DVD9 is allowed.
|
||
|
|
. If DVD5 is pred by another group AFTER the DVD9,
|
||
|
|
then proof MUST be included of the source.
|
||
|
|
. Boxset = More than one disc. ALL discs in one release
|
||
|
|
separated by subdirectories (DISC1, DISC2, etc.)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
_______________________________________________________________________________
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
VIDEO:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
. Re-encoding:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
. CCE version 2.50+ or newer must be used in all
|
||
|
|
circumstances where transcoding (re-encoding) of the
|
||
|
|
video stream is required. REmpeg and TMPGenc are NOT
|
||
|
|
allowed period.
|
||
|
|
New unknown or unreleased encoders are not strictly
|
||
|
|
forbidden, however use at your own risk.
|
||
|
|
. Automated Programs that perform DVD9>DVD5 rips are
|
||
|
|
FORBIDDEN, i.e. DVDShrink, DVDXCopy, InstantCopy, etc.
|
||
|
|
. Minimum average bitrate allowed is 3000kbps. If the
|
||
|
|
minimum average bitrate cannot be achieved, a valid
|
||
|
|
explanation is required in the NFO.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
. Quality Settings:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
. No CBR. A variable bitrate MUST be used.
|
||
|
|
. The initial first pass that encodes the .vaf file
|
||
|
|
in CCE is NOT considered within the multipass set.
|
||
|
|
. The number of passes required for a movie is to be
|
||
|
|
determined by the final average bitrate. Under
|
||
|
|
4000kbps 6+ passes required, over 4000kbps
|
||
|
|
5+ passes are required.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
. Extras:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
. Extras are an added value but are not needed. Extras are
|
||
|
|
allowed to be downsampled/stripped/left-untouched at the
|
||
|
|
rippers discretion.
|
||
|
|
. A minimum of 5+ passes and 1900kbps average bitrate for
|
||
|
|
extras is required if downsampled.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
. Splitting:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
. In extreme cases where even if minimum bitrate is reached but
|
||
|
|
video quality remains low (such as live concerts with lots of
|
||
|
|
flash and moving) the decision to split release into 2 or more
|
||
|
|
discs is left to the ripper's discrection. Also acceptable if
|
||
|
|
the bitrate is way below the minimum. (DON'T ABUSE)
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
AUDIO:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
. Audio Priority is: DD5.1 > LPCM > DD2.0 > DTS
|
||
|
|
. If space is needed to reach the minimum bitrate, it's a rippers
|
||
|
|
choice on what streams should be stripped. DD5.1 should always
|
||
|
|
be favored over DD2.0.
|
||
|
|
. In extreme cases, where source has ONLY LPCM audio stream
|
||
|
|
(most Promo's), and video average bitrate is too low for being
|
||
|
|
re-encoded, ripper can re-encode audio to fit into DVD5. AC3
|
||
|
|
MUST be used in this case.
|
||
|
|
. In cases where audio streams are stripped, IFOEdit is suggested
|
||
|
|
to strip the streams and VOB ID's.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
. DTS is an issue that cannot be ignored. However, it is not
|
||
|
|
up to us to decide whether they should be allowed or not.
|
||
|
|
Rather, it's up to the SITES that will determine their own
|
||
|
|
appropriate rules. However, those groups that wish to release
|
||
|
|
should name their directory clearly with the appropriate tag
|
||
|
|
of DTS or DTS-ONLY.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
MENUS:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
. Menus MUST be included. In extreme cases where the retail does
|
||
|
|
not contain a menu, it must be mentioned in the NFO.
|
||
|
|
. Removing useless links within the menu is required. If you
|
||
|
|
remove something, disable or remove the button.
|
||
|
|
. If all else is stripped and still can't get a 3000kbps average
|
||
|
|
bitrate, then the menu may be re-encoded at a minimum of 3000kbps
|
||
|
|
average.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
_______________________________________________________________________________
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
DVD LIMITATIONS:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
. All user limitations and restrictions must be removed.
|
||
|
|
. Antipiracy warnings and dummies are preferred to be removed.
|
||
|
|
. Any new unmentioned copy protection that comes out
|
||
|
|
(i.e. ARcoSS) must be stripped.
|
||
|
|
. Macro vision must be removed.
|
||
|
|
. Releases must be made region free.
|
||
|
|
. RipIt4Me along with DVD Decrypter is a good suggestion
|
||
|
|
to remove all above.

||
|
|
|
||
|
|

_______________________________________________________________________________
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
PROPERS:
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
. Propers will ONLY be released if previous had technical flaws
|
||
|
|
such as menu errors, bad quality, etc.
|
||
|
|
PPF patch cant fix such things.
|
||
|
|
. Just because a previous release was not COMPLETE does not
|
||
|
|
provide a legitimate reason to PROPER/DUPE.
|
||
|
|
. Propers based on previous releases having improper dir names
|
||
|
|
or missing information in the .nfo will not be tolerated.
|
||
|
|
. PPF patches should be used for fixing releases with simple
|
||
|
|
problems such as RCE/Region coding, VTS sectors, P-Ups and
|
||
|
|
so forth. REPACKS/PROPERS should be avoided if a PPF patch is
|
||
|
|
a possible fix.
