Thanks all! :-)
Notes:
- Video stream with the MEL DoVi layer demuxed with MakeMKV. The rest with eac3to;
- Regarding the video, and regardless of what Plaion claims (because we know how that goes), I initially chose to believe this:
What they [Plaion] did was take the Universal 4K Master for the theatrical version and splice in all the missing pieces from the Ulysses Cut and match them in grading of course. But I don't think they simply took the Ulysses Stuff from the finished 2K Master. I think they got the raw scan for those scenes. Arrow and Universal scanned all that stuff in 4K back then.
Well, some of it, at best... I didn't go frame by frame the whole 3 hours of the movie but there are still some short scenes that look terrible and would disprove what is said above (these existed in all 4k versions, btw) as well as some glitches that were imported from the Universal remaster. 2h30m30s is the worst example of this, imo, but there are others. Even so, I like the color grading of Plaion more than that of Arrow. Anyway, it is what it is;
- The 24-bit track from the Arrow BD was chosen. Besides that, the Arrow just has significantly higher bitrate because, otherwise, they are identical both in spectrograms and in amplitude statistics. Both have some minor clipping in the center channel.
Unfortunately, and from what I've read, this track suffers from the long identified issues regarding missing foley effects. Plaion put a lot of work into their German dub and apparently corrected those issues (at least for the parts concerning the theatrical cut) but they basically didn't touch the English audio. Understandable in a way, since they're mainly catering to the German speaking market but it's disappointing nonetheless. So, when it comes to those problems, they're there and it's the same as the Arrow BD track for the Ulysses cut that ended up being used in the remux. Hoping a future release might finally correct this;
- I OCRed the Plaion UHD subtitles and got a forced and a regular SRTs in there. A couple of 'PortuGreek' lines are missing though. The SDH PGS from Arrow (tonemapped to the lightness of the UHD ones - 58%) was included although it does not translate any of the 'PortuGreek' lines. The Forced PGS was set as default;
- The Extended Cut (US TV cut) DVD was used for named chapters. I adapted it to the Ulysses Cut since the differences between the two cuts have to do mainly with dialogue censorship and just a few short scenes. The larger scene structure is basically the same. Synced to I-frames/scene changes.
Enjoy!
