No idea who Genbu is but...
Anyway, once I escape the sandpit (I'm deployed for a bit more) I'll be working into the 40's and 50's of Touch. And for you LOGH fans, fear not, it'll come hot and heavy as well. Yes, I am the timer, editor and leader of Central Anime. Last edited by Heibi; 2004-08-08 at 14:41. |

Any chance of getting posts of your Macross 7? AiA's all but officially dropped it (the person doing most of the work lost her soul to FFXI), and ASS's version is...well...ass. Good luck getting out of the middle east and back to Hawaii/Wichita/Wherever they put you next! |

I'll think about that. Interim uploads of Mac7 might take the place of LOGH and Touch while we work on them. Though we have all of LOGH translated now, just not timed and such. Back to Wichita. I'll be a timing animal when I return. |

Reply to brightness
Quote:
The inconsistent brightness is due to each of the first 6 LD's having wildly different settings of brightness, contrast and saturation. It takes me approxamatly two hours per disk to tune it. After the sixth it seems to be stabilizing. Any tips to shorten the time would be appreciated , as it looks like I've got two other LD series (Macross 7 and Legend of the Galatic Heroes) to start soon. |

As far as the Mac7 LDs, I've only got #10 and #11, but they both look pretty damn good as-is, so they shouldn't need much cleaning up (if any). Finally, thanks for sticking to the LD version of LoGH. The artistic retcon for the DVDs looks nasty. |

Sorry for the late response. I had to re-download some of the Genbu-subbed Touch episodes to do a comparison and there are very few seeds available. |

: The sound doesnŽt screw up. IŽve tried different codecs setups on two different PCs and I still got a delay in the audio, that increased gradually during the eps I havenŽt heard of anyone else that has had this proplem but it sure was annoying to me. Still watched all of the eps though because they are so damn good IŽd like to thank the Genbu staff for introducing Touch to me and thus introduced the wonderful manga author Mitsuri Adachi. Keep up the good work! Last edited by KrooleMannen; 2004-08-10 at 10:03. |

You know, we haven't gotten any complaints about the sound. You should've dropped by our channel and told us, so we could look into fixing it.
Anyway, since Central Anime is doing a rather good job with it, we're seriously thinking about dropping the project and moving on to something else... Kind of a shame, considering we had finally found a translator who'd agreed to get us through at least episode 26... |

Thanks
I feel I should add my thanks as well. I'm a huge sucker for classic anime based off of Shounen Sunday manga. I've long been familiar with the Touch manga. been wanting to see the animated series for as long as I can remember. So I'm grateful to finally be able to see this series. And it such quick succession too. I'm certainly not tired by its quick release schedule. It gives me something new to look forward to each day.
Batches or no batches, I don't care either way. Just keep them around 3 to 5 episodes if you do eventually batch them. Especially when each episode is about 200Mb, having 10 per batch is too much. Currently I'm also trying to get H2 anime off of bittorrent (I think by ILA), but the batch is insanely huge with 24 episodes it makes for a 5.5 Gigabyte file. I've got a fairly fast connection, yet I've been at it all week. I'm afraid to see how it'll slow down once I get near 98%. |

But if you give up, maybe you could do another great anime based on Mitsuru Adachi manga, namely Hiatari Ryouko. The manga has been fully fan-translated if you want to check the story and you can also get the first 4 episodes of the anime if you're willing to get it on tape. It has been done by Random Masters and you can get the tape from them (www.randommasters.com) or from Mokkori Ippai (www.mokkoriippai.com). I wouldn't call it the better way to check an anime, but you can even try do check the scripts for the first 4 episodes as Random Masters has them publicly available here For the manga, please check MangaDownloads' site or go directly to their channel #grandline at irc.irchighway.net. |

. The odd thing was that it was only certain Touch eps that behaved that way. If I remember correct the last one was behaving nice. Guess it was just tough luck for me. Still IŽm very greatful for introducing me to this show and if you do move on to a new show (or keeping up with Touch) IŽll be sure to check out the files. Who knows, maybe my dumbass comp. (and I) will have better luck with those |

Since 90% of the releases currently being worked on <by all groups> are being done in the .avi container format, it always gets a little weird when people try and do variable data rate MP3 or other audio formats, given that AVI is most comfortable when the audio and video are in frame by frame lock step. |
