I am finally getting around to the fixed V2 of Initial D stages 3-Final where I fix the side effects of that new filter I was using for the first time when doing Initial D series. It caused the chroma to oversharpen and halo or glow brighter. It was mostly only noticeable on the reds, but it happened all over. Something I didn't notice until about 2 projects later, and using it more.

Here is an example of the chroma side effect.
https://slow.pics/c/mf8X7l9y

Look along the black lines on the red jacket. You should notice the glowing it introduced. This is quite easy to fix, and without negative side effects.

Fixed example
https://slow.pics/c/ZKe0b6ua

Here is another example from another project.
https://slow.pics/c/OW991Lfq

I circled it in this example in case you couldn't see it in the last one. This was actually the project I first noticed it happening on.


I fixed those other smaller projects, now I am fixing this last one.

The work, scripts and everything has already been done before. All I really have to do is make new scripts, so it should go by MUCH faster since I wont have to redo all the sync work, and subtitle timings again. It wont be taking me 6+ months to finish the entire series this time around.

I will up the 5.1 audio bitrate from 576kbps to 640kbps, and will add 1k-2k+ more video bitrate for the V2 releases.

I will start on Final Stage and work my way back.


UPDATE: I ended up improving Final Stage more than I thought, instead of just the one fix I expected to do. I not only fixed the chroma issue I intended to fix and the reason for doing the V2, but I also improved the detail slightly more with a better made script, reduced the artifacts/banding better, and fixed the outer rim of the video that was a single pixel wide dark line and a line of haloing all the way around the border.

I will be running the scripts through the encoder Wednesday.

I noticed a mistake I made in the scripts for Fifth Stage at the last moment when I was about to upload them, and needed to fix it. I have to re-run the scripts unfortunately, but it will result in better video.
If you want all the frequent updates, since I will not flood comments with them, just join discord server.

I will have 5th Stage up asap.


EDIT: Since 5th stage scripts are so damn slow and will take about 2 weeks or so, I am going to work on Third Stage, and run it along side those episodes. My CPU will most likely end up maxed out when I start the script I make, so I wont be able to use my computer for anything else until it finishes. I'll be checking Discord on Mobile during that time.

The 3rd stage movie will most likely for sure finish way before the 5th stage episodes do, so that might be my next upload.

Second Stage V2 is now available.

I put my older Second Stage encodes to shame for sure. If you are a fan of this series, you should get the much improved V2 encodes.

Is the V2 encodes only for the 1080p version?

I might do 480p V2 for First and Second Stages, especially since I improved Second Stage so much when compared to before. The rest I am only planning on redoing in 1080p.

Battle stages are coming along nicely. I might be able to have them ready and up within a week. Possibly even earlier. Time will tell.

I'll wait 'til the 4K Dolby Atmos 7.1 Version is out
Or will there be a 1080p v3 next ?

Really, how man Versions of your Work will you put out, claim that the new Version is Way better than the old ?

I've just downloaded the V1 Version and hey, there's a V2.
Download this and maybe suddenly a V3 will pop up.

And why is there a last not even one Version of Battle Stage 3 ?

You should make a one and for all Final Version of your work and all will be happy.
Like this, nobody will download, because everybody is waiting if there may be a way better Version is to come.

To be fair, we are many who download and thank all the effort that was made on this encodings, and if occasionally some new encodings appear, we are free to stay with what we already have.

You do know that if you don't care for the newsest versions of Initial D. you can just not download them.

You make it sound like I put out a shitload of versions. I have only redone this series in 1080p one time, and I am still on the redoing it. I haven't even finished doing it the second time yet.

Its not my fault you just now downloaded the V1. You have had multiple years to get it. I did that release way back in 2017 and had a very good reason for needing to redo it a second time. That's your fault you just now got to the V1 release, not anyone else's. Not only have I announced working on a V2 when I started it months back, but I have been putting it up one by one over a period of months now. That's on you that you did not notice it and went straight for the V1.
Unless better sources come out such as new scans or proper remasters, I have no intention of ever doing a V3. I only did the V2 because it was necessary to fix a couple of the later stages that had their chroma messed up last time. Because I have improved encoding skills since 2017, and was doing the last couple stages chroma fix, I decided to do the entire thing as a better V2 instead of just fixing the last couple stages chroma.

There is no battle stage 3 yet because battle stage 3 did not exist when I originally encoded this in 2017, nor did it exist when I finished it all, and bundled it together into one large upload. I will have to add it in this time around. That will come when the rest is finished getting redone.

Also, as a side note, I couldn't care less whether you or anyone grabs it. If you want it, then enjoy. If you don't want it, then don't get it and move on. Quit being a childish troll.

I'm still going to be doing the 3 movies. I just haven't got the third movie JPBD yet, but I will asap. I been a little busy with other stuff.

You can keep up with everything, including plans in my discord channel if you are interested.

https://discord.gg/GejGp6k

was wondering about the legend movies as well, but just read this so that confirms u got them and might be working on them too.
are you also planning on doing the live action movie and the battle digest? i remember seeing someone upload it on youtube once and making the subs for it with updates every now and then, but that got taken down pretty quickly. i do have partial subs on those if you want them.
other than that, just wanna say thanks for allowing me to have high quality versions of my old vhs tapes and dvds c:
