Battlestar Galactica The Face Of The Enemy webisodes v4 720p

Battlestar.Galactica.The.Face.Of.The.Enemy.webisodes.v4.720p.mkv



THIS IS THE SAME CONTENT AS VERSION3 JUST SMALLER WITH THE SAME QUALITY



Battlestar Galactica The Face of the Enemy integrated fanedit with 720p web source

version4 33min53sec Handbrake0.9.9 398,347,614bytes

V: 2-Pass Encoding (Turbo first pass) Preset = 09 (very slow) 1400Kbps AVC

A: 2.0 160Kbps AAC



This is a new encode of the final MPEG-2/AC3 fanedit of The Face of the Enemy. The previous version was:

version3 Handbrake0.9.8 653,759,047bytes CRF21.5 2329Kbps AVC, 2.0 192Kbps AC3



This new version4 was 2-pass encoded instead of using constant quality and the result is a smaller file with no discernible visual or audible differences. Stills and video sections were carefully evaluated during the review but if *any* issue is detected please leave a comment with the timecode describing the issue so it can be addressed as soon as possible.



REQUEST: PLEASE POST (usenet or p2p) the newly released Battlestar Galactica Season 4 box JAPAN (2013) Face of the Enemy 1-10 webisodes

These are 1080i and probably MUCH better quality than the 720p streaming web source used for this integrated fanedit. If possible, post the straight copies of the Blu-Ray files for the webisodes to maintain the highest quality. As soon as these are available, a version5 of this integrated fanedit will be quickly made and shared.

THANKS!



This fanedit is The Face Of The Enemy webisodes from Battlestar Galactica in a single 33minute 53second file with smaller file size compared to v3 and improved video and audio quality in comparison to v2.



The story is powerful, both Gaeta (Alessandro Juliani) and Sweet Eight (Grace Park) do great jobs and we finally find out what Baltar whispered into Gaeta's ear in the brig that made him attack Baltar. This is best viewed in between s4e11 and s4e12. Since the parts are all strung together some unneeded establishing shots were cut as were some overlapping clips.



v4 improvements over v3:

* used 2-pass 1400Kbps instead of CRF21.5 and 160Kbps AAC instead of 192Kbps AC3 with no loss in video or audio quality

* smaller file size



v3 improvements over v2:

* The conversion from the flv files (AVC/AAC) to editable ts files (MPEG2/AC3) was done with FFcoder for v3 with much better results

* Output from the MPEG2 editor was lossless for the video; no video re-encoding occurred with v3 so the video quality was maintained

* All sound transitions were greatly improved in v3 since the audio was demuxed into its own track on 2 timelines. In v2 editing problems prevented demuxing.

* Removed 1 corrupt and several duplicate frames (these bugs in the source are very hard to notice at 30fps)

* Added about 2seconds of audio from a line-in capture of a different source so the music fades out instead of stopping suddenly like in the main web source



Technical notes:

The source was 1600Kbps 720p streaming web video so it doesn't look great for HD but it should look better than most/all other versions. Once the 2013 Japanese Season 4 Blu-Ray versions of the webisodes are available, a new version5 of this integrated fanedit will be created.
