    Definitely like the new content, debanding and 10-bit.
    What’s wrong with mentioning CRF though? It’s nice to know.

    Actually, mentioning crf is a _good_ thing.

    Because we have quite a few different playback circumstances here, I do downward transcoding for both file size and playback size. It’s a fact that transcoding from crf16 ==> crf23 gives better results than from crf20 ==> crf23.

    Frankly, it’s not worth downward transcoding any source with a crf > 20. Period.

    So yes, I’m always interested in knowing the crf of the source I want to use.

    Of course, people who don’t do their own transcoding don’t need to know nor care about crf .. but anyone interested in comparative quality of possible sources should consider crf values as essential info.

    Please – continue to list crf values. It’s appreciated at least here.

    There seems to be a glitch in episode one when the ED starts, happens with mpc-hc. CRC checks out fine.

    Seems to be a problem with Haali splitter, lav splitter works without the glitching, but has no chapter support.

    Alright, well my other question is did some parts of the episodes got hardsubbed? It says so on the notes, but I can’t verify since none of the episodes are ready.

    @ PBCurious, you can always look up the CRF per episode via MediaInfo.
    It’s more convenient if they just list it, though. Can’t see what’s wrong with listing CRF.

    I’m curious to know what’s the total diskspace size of Coalgirls’ release to date now, if one were to download everything of the highest quality bracket? I’ve download a good majorty of your release all in 1080p when possible, while 720p if that’s the only option, and sitting somewhere around 950GB archived, so far.

    This may be a dumb question, but did you release the OP/ED separately? On the torrent I only see NCED/NCOP…

    PBCurious writes:

    @Verix – thanks for the tip. I’d seen refs to MediaInfo before but always, for no good reason, assumed it was windows only. Based on your tip, I figured I would try it anyway under wine. I was pleased to see they’ve taken the dual approach and have it available for *nix based systems as well. I was even more pleased to see that it’s already available through Gentoo portage {woot! woot!}.

    While it’s great to be able to get even the H.264 encoding switch settings, this info is available only after downloading. Not before. So I’d still like to see crf values listed anyway. If I’m looking at several different encodes of the same thing, knowing their respective crf values is still a good thing. It’s simply one of the many factors I use in deciding what to download.

    As an aside, it’s my general observation that encoders {such as Coalgirls} select and use intelligent settings to go with their chosen crf encoding values. So as a decent rule of thumb, not being able to see encoder switch settings until after downloading is fine so long as the crf values are good.

    @lol – Don’t be such a dirtbag. I’m not dumb. I do my own playback and file size downscale transcoding. I do my own remuxing, restyling and occasional retiming.

    1) Personally, I rely on Coalgirls to have just about the best available encodes. So you’ll get no argument from me on that point.

    2) Coalgirls only encodes what they want to encode. Which means that Coalgirls is _not_ going to encode everything out there just because we want the best encodes possible for whatever we happen to like.

    3) Even they stuff they encode doesn’t mean that other people won’t see fit to download other groups’ encodes of the same thing. As an example, Coalgirls doesn’t normally do commentary nor language tracks other than the native dialog and English tracks. Only occasionally does Coalgirls do multiple subtitle tracks. Personally, about half of the Coalgirls releases I’ve gotten I’ve also gotten versions from other groups for doing my own personal remuxing. I’m not the only one who does this.

    4) I don’t read the comments I’ve seen in support of displaying crf values as “complaints”. I do see comments, including my own, which merely point out that some of us feel seeing crf values as helpful. I don’t see our comments as accusing others of being ‘dumb’ or of ‘bitching’. Your negative attitude is rude, unhelpful, ungracious and toddler level.

    5) If you’re so upset and hurt by reading crf values in a release post, I pity you. They are only information and they don’t hurt anyone. Not even you. As a general rule, it’s better to have a little extra information when making a decision than too little information. I really do wonder why you’re so upset about a little extra info to the point of being insulting and harsh. Really.

    So now that I have a 5.1 surround sound system for my computer, I realized that the majority of your releases have only stereo audio. I find it hard to believe that any Blu-ray releases wouldn’t have at least 5.1 audio, especially big-budget titles like Macross Frontier, so why do you guys only release them with 2.0 audio? I thought you guys were all about offering the highest quality…

    @Sheila: You’re not so bright, are you? Exactly how many anime releases do you see with 5.1 audio? Could it be because…. there IS no 5.1 audio? Think people, think before you talk.

    @DmonHiro: You’re not so bright, are you? Why don’t you tell me what it says for the audio here: http://coalgirls.wakku.to/?p=4388

    Think people, before you talk.

    Either way, 5.1, 6.1, how many channels isn’t my point. If they’re ripping from Blu-rays, why is the audio in stereo and not surround sound?

    Preliminary remark –>I’m Italian.
    Thanks for this release and for all the other series I’ve watched from you ^^
    What subtitles (Mazui or GotWoot) would you recommend to me? I’ve tried to watch the first epidode with both, but I’m not able to choose one of them. Some little advises would be really helpful.
    Sorry for my bad English ^^’

  41. 2012-03-13 at 19:41:03
    DmonHiro writes:

    You can go for either. Maziu is a little more literal, while GotWoot is more liberal. They are both great translations.

    @Sheila: Watch moar English dubs, those are more often 5.1 than the Japanese tracks. 5.1 is more rare on the Japanese side because most small Japanese apartments don’t have the space to set up surround sound systems, nor do they have enough sound insulation to prevent the neighbors from complaining.
