cruising for burgers Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 as i predicted, the 2010 bluray version is not only longer with added extra scenes but it also runs at a different speed than the US version you guys used... i'm not a expert on video but i believe i have to convert the mkv file i have from 24fps to 29,967fps which is the framerate of the version you used... speeding it up... or, as an alternative, time stretch your songs... making them slower... preserving the pitch obviously... i'd rather be able to convert the video but i'll have to investigate it further tomorrow on a software that allows me to do it and doesn't take like a day or even more to finish... most video conversion experiences i had took quite some time if i wanted to keep a good quality / file size ratio... and i believe there's 2 types of video framerate conversion, one that preserves the total running time and another one which doesn't, speeding it up, this is the one i'm after... regarding your wavs, i've downloaded all the videos from youtube without any kind of conversion so i'l be able to demux the audio from them, which i think it's 256kbps mp3, and use it if we can't gather all the wavs...

Braintree Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 I believe I gave him lossless files for both sections that he asked, but not sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruising for burgers Posted March 8, 2018 Share Posted March 8, 2018 ok so it seems like ffmpeg does it, it's running and it will last about the same as the movie length, 2 and a half hours... :fingerscrossed: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cruising for burgers Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 ok then, let me check if i can render all the extra scenes in individual files, host them somewhere and assign them to whoever wants to ost them... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cruising for burgers Posted March 9, 2018 Share Posted March 9, 2018 after many hours i was able to match the different playing rate of both versions! 2002 US version - 29.97 fps 2010 Restored version - 24 fps to convert one to another the most logic thing to do was to multiply the frame rate of the restored version by (24/29.97) which is 0.8008008008... turns out it didn't work, i know why but it's difficult to put it into words... eventually i had to multiply it by 0.97, got there through trial and error after 5 or 6 hours, because this takes forever to convert... anyway, just tried to synch MRX's scene and it fits perfectly. don't think i'm going to have patience to wait for the wavs, gonna do it with the mp3 anyway and later when we have all the wavs i'll just replace the mp3 in the project and render it again... about the extra scenes, we'll address that later, it seems like they're not long enough to need a particular soundesign, for now i'll just cut up some droning and synth sounds from your songs and splash them wherever there's need for it...

zazen Posted April 6, 2018 Author Share Posted April 6, 2018 24 tracks in total (23 segments but no 15 has two versions) I have 16 as WAV, have sent them to T.I.M.J The other 8 I only have as mp3. Also sent them to T.I.M.J These are the ones we need wavs for: Seq02 - Stenotic - watmm name: Blanket Fort Collapse Seq05 - Margaret Thatcher - watmm name: Margaret Thatcher Seq09 - Xiqhhyiecryn - watmm name: Pawwa Seq12 - Soundwave - watmm name: Soundwave Seq14 - Kcinsu - watmm name: Kcinsu Seq16 - Adjective - watmm name: Adjective Seq17 - Amorphous Humphrey Plugg - watmm name: Kaini Seq22 - Stenotic (again) - - watmm name: Blanket Fort Collapse watmm names are what I had from 2010, some probably changed since. With the extra scenes in the blueray - what are you going to do if an extra scene is right in the middle of an existing track? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zazen Posted April 6, 2018 Author Share Posted April 6, 2018 History so far: Original idea during Bracketology/most-idm 2008 Original project run by Squee and Rook, March 2008 - https://forum.watmm.com/topic/32457-metropolis-1927-soundtrack/ They got about half the tracks done, then kindly handed over to me in Sept 2009 - https://forum.watmm.com/topic/49033-metropolis-soundtrack-by-watmmers/ (It takes a long time because its hard for people to get the tracks done as fast as they think they can) July 2010 - Poetry competition to see who gets to do the last sequence (14, Ksinsu wins) - https://forum.watmm.com/topic/58011-watmmopolis/ October 2010 - its complete but we are stuck with the original draft video cut up and timestamped by rook. Lots of discussion about re-doing in DVD quality 17th October 2010 - complete film unveiled and a bunch of watmmers watch it on synctube which was a service that lets you watch youtube playlists together https://forum.watmm.com/topic/60530-watmmopolis-is-now-complete/?hl=watmmopolis Since 2010 I've been saying I'd redo the video from the DVD but I never got round to it.Thanks T.I.M.J for picking this up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
