Simp Chat Uncompressed DVDs of standard definition movies Discussion Thread

appreciate the contribution but this isn't uncompressed. uncompressed dvd means someone bought a dvd of a porn movie and pulled the files off that dvd without converting them to another format. dvds contain vob video files. vobs can be converted to mpg without compressing. dvds are also shared as iso images. iso images contain all the files from the dvd maintaining the folder structure. they wouldn't be mp4. mp4 files go in the Old School / Retro Porn / Vintage thread

I was wondering if there was ANY porn video/dvd/bluray with the audio format E-AC3 (Dolby Digital Plus)? I looked online but couldn’t find an answer :((
 
i can't find any porn that was released using e-ac3. lots of ac3 releases but no e-ac3 releases.
 
Thanks detective nobody! I’m basically trying to find content that works with iPhone+Airpods Spatial Audio(preferably Dolby atmos). I think only e-ac3+dolby atmos is supported, but I could be wrong, I’m willing to test for science if you know of any Dolby Atmos content.
 
atmos was released in 2012. most porn studios had moved on from dvds by then. i don't think there's any spatial audio/atmos compatible audio tracks on dvd. your best bet is probably to convert the audio from a normal ac3 track to spacial audio.
 
Reviving this thread
I'm wondering, are uncompressed DVD files even really worth it? 4 GBs is the limit, I don't know what software was used to compress back then, or rather most stuff was filmed on low quality digital cameras to begin with.
I think anything beyond that, only the original director has a source quality copy and who knows if they managed to save it or not
 
you missunderstood. It’s like Bluray Remux(BDREMUX). it means you take the DVD and convert it into a playable format such as mp4/mov/mkv without additional compression. Usually they’re already compressed but pretty high quality compression.
You’re right we can’t get the original but that’s not what the thread is about
Since the quality is already low, further compression makes it look even worse, you can compare any of the files shared in the content thread to compressed versions online and see for yourself
 
I’ve done this exactly, .ISO to .MP4. Usually the quality really doesn’t improve that much.
 
Compared to now, DVD quality is not great. However, DVD scenes are shot at 60fps can that footage can be ripped to MP4. That's what I'm after in all of these old DVD scenes, the original framerate of the scene. I download and store as many DVD ISOs as I can find.
Unfortunately, almost all older DVD rips that have been floating around the internet for years are 30fps. Only recently, maybe the past few years, have I have seen people ripping at 60fps). So, having the original uncompressed DVD ISO allows for the best quality to be extracted (and then upscaled via AI). I'm also hoping AI upscaling tech gets even better and can be 'recreated' to a mastered quality. Might take a decade, but if we have the OG uncompressed we will always have the best quality to start with.
 
I think I understand what you're saying
So having the original physical DVD, we may be able to extract a better quality ISO? The other bottleneck, if the original producer didn't know what they were doing, the same shotty footage is on the DVD itself. But i'm unsure about this
Still, I agree, you can recover decent detail from an .ISO + a cautious upscale using AI.
My hope is also in the future, we'll be able to restore using AI based on still images that were taken during the production. Image quality was higher than video quality back then and it was common for productions to take photos as part of the shoot.
 
Ya, you pretty much got it.
It's not about 'extract a better quality ISO', but these productiopn DVDs are the closest we can get to an original source.
The MPEG-2 video files on the disc isn’t modern quality, but it preserves the native framerate, motion data, and compression the producers actually delivered. Many old rips were encoded at 30fps, even when the DVD was authored at 60i, which means half the motion detail was lost. With the untouched ISO, you can recover the original framerate and get the best possible result before doing any modern encoding or AI upscaling.
Even if the production quality wasn’t perfect, the ISO still gives you the cleanest starting point vs avi rips from decades ago. As AI restoration improves, having the original data will matter even more.
 
If most people understood what we understand, I feel like there would be a movement to find old DVDs.
The question is, where to we find these old DVDs now?
 
I'm going to attempt this with one of Brandon Iron's old scenes. I'm going to be upset if the quality isnt any better lol
 
if you truly don’t notice a difference, it must be your screen, try watching both on an apple device with their retina display for example. you will see a huge difference
 
Hopefully as AI improves, eventually we will be able to reconstruct or rebuild high-quality video using reference images. Basically, the video will essentially act as a motion capture
Since it was really common for sets to take high quality images during the scenes, we'd have a ton of material to work with, right?
 
I'm wondering, how much bitrate could I potentially grab from the original DVD, lets say early 2000s? i'm hoping for around 3-4. Seems like all other online sources hover around 1.5
 
Here is a sample of something I upscaled.
Movie: 7 the Hard Way 2 (2003)
Method: .ISO from online (~7 GBs)
Re-encoding method:
The output file was about ~4 GBs.
Topaz Video AI - Interlace setting/60fps
Result:
Note: I probably should've used -crf 0, which would've generate a bigger file size to work with
 
On a different note, I've downloaded a few DVD torrents and they come with a JACKET_P folder. Anyone know what those are?
