Thanks to a little birdie called Noriko again, I was reminded that I had to fix some audio problems was certain episodes of Rayearth. So, here's the fixes.

Simple mux the files removing the older tracks and replacing them with the new ones.

Dont care, Rayearth was lame and stupid much like Goldran.

And it was just the OP & ED at times for some odd reason. I guess something went wrong in handbrake with the audio because there's nothing else I can really think of.

>>15346334
It's /m/ related and it was first mentioned in /m/, so, I'd say it's relevant.

>>15346361
Rude. But if that is the case, you know where the door is.

>>15346459
It was only in the OP and ED in the episodes listed in >>15346348 so that's probably why nobody even mentioned it when I originally uploaded those episodes, but I really wish people did as it was months later when the Noriko poster informed me about it.

>>15346300
Thanks!

what was wrong with the old one? I downloaded the 720s a while ago but havent watched it yet

Did anyone else notice this release on nyaa? It's from the American BDs, and while the video quality isn't very good, the subs look great. I think I'll steal them.

>>15348503
This is the fix for them. I'm not going to reupload the entire thing again just for this. Simply mux them and you'll be on your way. Help yourself for once.

Why would I download xPearse's bloated encode instead of this https://www.nyaa.se/?page=view&tid=899687?

help

it wasn't a perfect fix. specifically episodes 21-30 seem have more audio distortions besides the OP and ED. while some parts of an episode sounds ok, some parts are quite jarring. all the epilogues have distorted audio.

please look into episodes 21-30 thoroughly please.

>>15349234
Why not just re-release with those subs and the fixed audio?

>>15349234
>Simply mux them and you'll be on your way. Help yourself for once.
That kind of sucks when you want to add the files on anidb (I was adding your releases as I was grabbing them, earlier), but more importantly for their continued existence on the internets - no official crcs to check and problems like that.

That's why I was asking. Personally I would probably not care if the problem just shows up in the OP/ED (if I understood it right).

>>15351252
Really? Damn it. Why couldn't people have mentioned this when I was uploading them over time or when I finished and had a batch torrent? Because I haven't exactly watched it all myself yet. I only watched the first episode or two when I was encoding the series.

In any case, which tracks are these and is it all the way through the episode or ata part or two? I'm unsure what happened, though. Because the Japanese track was encoded through handbrake and nothing has ever went wrong with it before.

>>15349805
Did you even bother to check nyaa?

https://www.nyaa.se/?page=view&tid=895607
http://pastebin.com/VkxMRM5s

>>15351297
You mean in a torrent? Well, I intend to upload the subs from it to go with my release, but I have already added a torrent of the fixed audio to nyaa.

https://www.nyaa.se/?page=view&tid=910522

However, I want to hold off on a V2 or anything until I make sure that there are no more problems.

>>15352253
>anidb
People still use that website? Anyhow, yeah, it's only in the OP & ED from what I know, but >>15351252 has said that it's even in parts of certain episodes. Hmm.

>>15352387
Anidb is afaik still the best place to check what rips exist for a given show, as long as people keep adding them that is. It shows bitrates, CRCs and even encoding options which is handy for savvy people.

>>15352387
So, now that Rayearth is done (barring obvious V2s), any chance of taking up my earlier Wataru request?

>>15352387
Why would I download the 130gb rip when I can download the 53gb rip?

>>15353380
Because one is in 1080p and the other 720p? Unless, you're talking about that new release with the nice subs, but the video quality isn't too good on it. Well, you can decide for yourself, anyhow.

all the way through for all episodes 21-30

>I'm unsure what happened, though. Because the Japanese track was encoded through handbrake and nothing has ever went wrong with it before.
only the episodes 21-30 batch is the most fucked up for some reason. first batch, 1-20, was perfect and last batch, 31-49, was mostly fine.

I'll have a brief look through those episodes, but what do you mean by "all the way through"? Like at a few points for a second or two or the entire track is distorted throughout? I need more info because I flicked through those episodes when I fixed those other problems before and didn't notice anything like that.

>>15354779
Fanfiction.com is that way.

I specified a "GOOD" writefag, not some fucking shitlord who never passed tenth grade English.

I looked on the Wiki to see if maybe one influenced the other but it looks like they were airing/being written? around the same time.

>Original run
>November 1993 – April 1996

>The Vision of Escaflowne
>Original run
>October 24, 1994 – November 26, 1997

I guess their similarities are just coincidence or maybe European fantasy was just popular at the time.

>>15356393
Escaflowne was a manga first, right? It's not weird to be pushed to mimic a succesful manga by a big author like Clamp by your editor.

How's Discotek's release?

They all happened at the same time actually.

>Three alternate retellings of The Vision of Escaflowne have been released in manga form, with first two manga series developed at the same time as the anime.

>Due to the radical changes in the anime series during production, these two manga series are very different from the original anime series and each other. The first series, also titled The Vision of Escaflowne was one of the first manga series to appear in the then new Shōnen Ace magazine from Kadokawa Shoten. Despite the anime series itself being on hold, Sunrise gave artist Katsu Aki the existing production and character designs, resulting in the first manga series having the heavy shōnen feel and curvaceous Hitomi that was originally planned for the anime series.

>In 1996, with the premiere of the anime series, Messiah Knight — The Vision of Escaflowne was created. This shōjo oriented adaptation was written by Yuzuru Yashiro and serialized in Asuka Fantasy DX[2] from April 8, 1996 through January 18, 1997.[citation needed] Unlike the first manga, it focused more on the interaction of the characters and severely toned down the violence to the point that the mecha are not used for battle at all and Escaflowne only appears near the end of the series.

>>15354779
They both had fuck ugly character design styles too.

>>15356542
Editors usually push authors to do whatever is succesful at the time. Even if it is design details or story beats.

>>15356482
Do you think anyone here even bought it?

It's a dark age for Fantasy Mecha.

The only hope for Fantasy Mecha to get revived is Knights and Magic.

Then again people will have a strong negative force in them due to the very fact that its an Isekai.

And in the longest time, OP2 clean has no problems, either. However, if either do and I did not notice, then please point out what exactly is the problem. Many thanks.

>ED2 was fixed before, and I listened to it then and there now (both tracks) just to be sure and there are no problems.
the first fix did correct the most jarring distortions but upon further inspection, there is a scratching sound like opening velcro.

>OP2 clean has no problems
no distortions of any kind but I still felt it was a little off. the sound is a little quiet compared to other OPs/EDs and episodes. ED2 too

sorry im a lil autistic when it comes to perfect sound
