AUDIO PROCESSING: Each track underwent DC offset correction, phase correction, L/R channel balancing and initial gain setting before proceeding with remastering. Most tracks had a few (usually 20 or less) clipped samples and required de-clipping. Mastering consisted of EQ (mid/side and stereo adjustments), stereo field optimization, sparing use of a frequency demasking reverb, a buss compressor for gentle transient taming and character and final level setting (TP, 18x oversampling and a target integrated LUFS of -12.0). The remastered audio was painstakingly synced to the video with Davinci Resolve.
VIDEO PROCESSING: The two source DVDs were first appended. Vapoursynth QTGMC 1x de-interlacing with PAR conversion to 1:1. Proper upscale to 1080p with noise reduction, compression artifact removal, de-blurring and gentle grain addition. All intermediate video processing was carried out in lossless (FFV1, 10-bit) formal. Final conversion to 10-bit H.265/MKV, with appropriate cropping. Chapters were manually entered. Poster art generated.
The audio files were re-muxed in this order:
1. FLAC 2.0 BIV remastered audio
2. Opus 192kbps 2.0 BIV remastered audio
3.) MP2 2.0 224kbps original source audio
NOTES: A fantastic visual and auditory upgrade.
