|
|
|
|
General:
|
|
. Release size must be at 4.3-4.37 Gb unless source is DVD5.
|
|
. PAL after NTSC and NTSC after PAL is allowed.
|
|
. DVD9 after DVD5 and DVD5 after DVD9 is allowed.
|
|
If DVD5 is pred by another group AFTER the DVD9 then
|
|
is suggested to include proofs of the source (scans or
|
|
wathever).
|
|
. Boxset = More than one disc. ALL discs in one release. ╖separated by subdirectories
|
|
Separated disc release forbidden
|
|
|
|
|
|
Video:
|
|
. Re-encoding:
|
|
. CCE version 2.50+ MUST be used in all circumstances
|
|
where transcoding (re-encoding) of the video stream
|
|
is required. REmpeg and TMPGenc are NOT allowed.
|
|
New unknown or unreleased encoders are not strictly
|
|
forbidden, however use at your own risk.
|
|
. Automated Programs that perform DVD9>DVD5 rips are
|
|
FORBIDDEN, e.g. InstanCopy, DVDXCopy, DVDShrink etc.
|
|
. Minimum average bitrate allowed is 3000 kbit/s
|
|
If minimum average bitrate cannot be achieved,
|
|
a valid explanation is required in the NFO.
|
|
. If a release is reauthored then video MUST be
|
|
deinterlaced if needed.
|
|
. Quality Settings:
|
|
. CCE:
|
|
. No CBR. Multipass is to be enforced.
|
|
. The initial 1st pass that encodes the .vaf file
|
|
in CCE is NOT considered within the multipass set.
|
|
. The number of passes required for main movie is to
|
|
be determined by the final avg bitrate. Under
|
|
4,000k/s 6+ passes required, over 4,000k/s
|
|
5 passes are required.
|
|
. VTS Sectors must always be gotten.
|
|
. Extras:
|
|
. Extras are an added value but are not needed. Extras are
|
|
allowed to be transcoded/stripped/left-untouched
|
|
@ ripper's discretion.
|
|
. A minimum of 5 passes for extras is required if transcoded
|
|
. 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 3000k/s avg
|
|
bitrate, then the menu may be reencoded at a minimum of
|
|
3000k/s avg.
|
|
. Splitting:
|
|
. In extreme cases where even if minum bitrate is reached but
|
|
video quality remains low (like live concerts with lots of
|
|
flash and moving) the decision to split release in more discs
|
|
is left @ ripper's discrection. (DON'T ABUSE)
|
|
Splitting releases aint cause for PROPER without tech failure
|
|
|
|
|
|
Audio:
|
|
. Audio Priority is: DD 5.1 > LPCM 2.0 > DTS
|
|
. First thing to strip off is DTS, then, if more space is needed
|
|
to reach the minimum bitrate, LPCM must be stripped.
|
|
. In extreme cases, where source has ONLY LPCM audio stream
|
|
(most PROMOs), and video avg bitrate is too low for being re-encoded,
|
|
ripper can re-encode audio to fit into DVD5. AC3 MUST be used.
|
|
|
|
DVD Limitations:
|
|

will not be tolerated.

|
|
possible.
