But they should have tried to fix them (rather than do nothing about it). I know it won't be easy... but that's what a dedicated encoder is there for, otherwise they might as well just get the translator to use a 1-click convert...

And don't upsize (or keep station upsize present in the raw), because that just makes it worse. I actually like the pre-release better, because it's not upscaled, and the blocking hides the haloing and dotcrawl to some extent.

Heh, I was bitching about my Sekirei source back then. This is much worse. Lets see how Menclave and AQS fares with the "source from hell".

Apparently there was trouble getting a decent source for it.

On TokyoTosho theres a 186.3MB 720p RAW = AutoFailure.......... none of the RAWs go over 200MB.

I see a 199.6MB, 576p raw. But that's an AVI raw, so that 199.6MB < 186.3MB of x264. :(

And size depends on degree of detail, change, and a lot of other factors. So not necessarily 186.3MB = autofail. (But yeah, it does seem really low)

EDIT: Wait, you say Chihiro got a transport stream... and it still looks like that... The studio = fail.

Senseito Sakura Wrote:[Zero-Raws] ef - a tale of melodies - 01 RAW (D-tvk DivX6.​8.​4 24fps 704x396).​avi would be my personal choice, but still, it's 115MB.. that is tiny even for a WorkRaw..

Will most likely be better to get the bigger (frame size) raw and downscale.
