First things first, if the group here doesn't want me to list my subbing jobs here, then please say so and I will comply.

Second, this job was a bit more difficult than the first. After all, when using color-coded subs, it gets ugly when 3 of the characters are "pinkish". But having to remove the original audio track because of an encoding error and muxing in a new one from a different source was the most difficult. On the bright side, the new audio did shave quite a few MBs from the file size! This whole job so far has been a great learning experience.

Anyway, to what everyone else wants, Episode 2 -- http://www.magicalnanoha.com/season_three_eps.html
Enjoy and please leave feedback so I can improve.

I would like to continue doing my own job only because I want to keep learning more about the process.
Most likely, I will keep putting my works up and may use another site of mine to host the DGz version when they become available. Of course, I expect that once DGz starts its releases, mine will become somewhat unnecessary. Oh well. As long as it gets done, right?

Anyway, Episode 3 DVD is up on magicalnanoha.com.
If you want the new-and-improved DGz version, you are just going to have to wait. :P
DGz staff: just let me know if you want me to shut up already.

Coldlight-san, nice encoding, it definitely has more details than DGz's one (i've compared DVD episode 1).

But there are some questions:
1) Why upscale? It will only consume more bitrate and might reduce quality.
2) Why your encode is cropped at the sides compared to DGz's?
3) Why use MP3 for audio whan there are Vorbis and AAC?
4) Maybe, use clean OP/ED?

Who know?
Perhaps he/she wanted to do that just because they felt like it :D
Although I am not a fan of MP3, I still believe these releases are good enough >:D

  1. I don't really encode them. I take an already encoded DVD rip and just mux the audio and subs on it. So as far as upscaling, you are asking the wrong guy. :P
  2. Again, I only mux them. The other encode I have available is not as clean or clear (many interlacing and lagging issues), so I stick with the present one.
  3. I use MP3 because... because... well, just because. If someone tells me that they can't hear the audio because of my choice of sound, then I may change. Also, I use MP3 because using the audio the comes with the DVD rip (ac3) adds about 100MB to the file size.
  4. I may decide to do that. In fact, I will give it a shot with the next release.

But thanks for the feedback, I will try to do a clean op/ed and give a different sound encode a shot. And, just to clear up confusion, I am a guy.

Episode 4 DVD is available on www.magicalnanoha.com/season_three_eps.html.
Per the suggestions, I encoded the audio using Vorbis OGG format. Also, I have included a clean op/ed track of the subs which is on by default.
Enjoy, and keep up with the feedback all!

Bump...

There has been a delay with DVD5 due to encoding issues. The RAW encode was over 500MB! OUCH! So I am re-encoding it but not having a lot of luck as of yet.
I am not slacking off (not much :P), just in unfamiliar technological territory with programs that are somewhat buggy.
Worse comes to worse I hope to have DVD5 up by Sunday evening.
