<pre class="nfo">The Windows Media Video Releasing Standards 2007 for Blu-Ray and HDDVD
|
|
|
|
Intro: As seen in recent weeks the WMV-HD scene has really picked up. The more groups that join in on WMV-HD
|
|
the more varations we have in encodes. With this said, standards need to be set in place in order
|
|
for all releases to be consistent and quality. Many people feel as if WMV-HD is redundent because of
|
|
the x264 scene. This is not true because of the compatiblity of WMV-HD. It can be played on the
|
|
XBOX360 and HTPC's. Where as x264 is restricted to HTPC's. The quality of WMV-HD vs x264 is equal
|
|
only reason many ppl are against WMV-HD is because its Microsoft. Even with the new dashboard
|
|
update x264 will not be able to play on the XBOX360 so again this shows that its gonna be a while before
|
|
someone makes a standalone that plays it.
|
|
|
|
|
|
Video:
|
|
|
|
1: Video size is determined by length of movie
|
|
A: If Video is 80 min or less DVD5 is ok but DVD9 is perferable and is to the discretion of the ripper
|
|
B: If Video is 81min or more DVD9 is required
|
|
a: Animated Films are a exception to the video length rule, DVD5 is sufficent for animated
|
|
Note: discs must be fully used when encoding so for DVD5 no less then 4.1 gig and DVD9 no less then 8.0 gig
|
|
2: Resolution must be no less then 720p
|
|
A: 1080p is at the ripper discretion
|
|
a: min bitrate for 1080p is 10,000kbps and it must be constrained to a peak limit of 14,000kbps with size limit
|
|
DVD9 or greater
|
|
B: Custom resolution is allowed as long as its multiple of 16
|
|
3: Video must be in Windows Media 9 Advanced Profile (WVC1)
|
|
4: 2-Pass VBR ONLY
|
|
|
|
Audio:
|
|
|
|
1: Audio bitrate must be no lower then 640kbps WMA Pro 5.1 unless source is
|
|
2: No Stereo to 5.1 upmixing allowed, source must be 5.1 with correct channels mapped unless source disc only has 2.0
|
|
3: Must be 24bit or 16bit audio unless source is less
|
|
4: English audio is to be use if its the native language on the disc
|
|
-- If english is not the native audio on the disc do one of the following:
|
|
A: Add hardcoded English subs and native audio
|
|
B: Use dubbed English audio track
|
|
5: Audio can be either CBR or VBR and 1 Pass is sufficient
|
|
|
|
General:
|
|
|
|
1: WMV must be in RAR with a recovery record added, SFV NFO and Sample are required as well
|
|
A: Sample must be atleast 60 sec
|
|
B: NFO MUST state VIDEO and AUDIO BITRATES, VIDEO RESOLUTION, AUDIO LANGUAGE, AND IF SUBS ARE HARDCODED. NO
|
|
EXCEPTIONS or PROPER is valid!
|
|
C: RARS must be 50mb stored for DVD5, 100mb stored for DVD9, and 150mb for 1080p rls's going beyond DVD9 size
|
|
2: Source Must be HDDVD, Blu-Ray. No re-encoding allowed of x264!
|
|
3: 2xDVD5 is not allowed, DVD9 can be split very easily by the end user
|
|
4: HDDVD and Blu-Ray sources dupe each other, INTERNAL tag is required if one is already rlsed
|
|
A: Resolution dupe rules is as follows: 720p dupes 1080p but 1080p does not dupe 720p
|
|
5: Intro and credits are to be intact, removing them is grounds for a proper
|
|
6: Directory format suggestion:
|
|
|
|
Movie.Title.Year.<BluRay/HDDVD/HDTV>.VC1.<720p/1080p>.5.1.WMV-GROUP
|
|
|
|
|
|
NOTE: These new rules do not apply to past releases, If a group wants to redo one that was done before the WMVS2k7 rules
|
|
were rlsed
|
|
it must be labled INTERNAL. Only reason a rls should be propered that was rlsed before this nfo is if its not working.
|
|
|
|
These rules will be updated when there is more progress in the HD DVD and Blu-ray scene.
