Is Bathtub doing his magic?...

[Steve T]

...are we gonna have a PAL version sometime?

Cheers

I know it doesn't come out by him for a few weeks.  Is it out in the UK?

[gammer]

yeah I hear its not out till sometime in April in Australia/NZ.

[Steve T]

Yep, it's out already... got my copy and a large popcorn just waiting for the Rifftrax release... I think the popcorn'll be stale in a few weeks!

You should send your copy to BathTub.

[Steve T]

That's not a bad idea.  Airsure from UK to NZ takes about four days... so if I send it off tomorrow he'd have it 23 March -- better than the 9 April release date.

I tried the ntsc version sped up 4% and that'll do the job with some tinkering.
In the UK version there might be some cuts as I noticed some issues with the sync lines in places. Some were dead on with others a bit in front and also a bit behind (not a pun about the amount of arse in Beowulf) the movie's audio. But I can't confirm that until I've done a re-author. I just couldn't be bothered last night.

Yeah this is out in a couple of weeks here, combine that with a new job, and I am quite busy right now. But I will get on it as soon as I can.

Well I checked it and it works perfectly (almost everytime). If you're in a desperate hurry and you're in the UK or Ireland the ntsc version (speed up 4.271%) will match the PAL release of the Director's Cut version without any edits.
Or perhaps the task of fixing ntsc rifftrax to pal is a dying art. It's not like in the old days when I spent an age tweaking the ntsc 5th Element into pal. Don't mind me I'm just grumbling

Ok, I'll give it a try... what software are you using to speed up the track?

[countv]

Audacity will do the job
http://audacity.sourceforge.net/
Anything that can speed-up or time compress should do the job.

[Steve T]

That worked really well!

And it was pretty easy, too.

Thanks!

Ah no worries, the build up for this one will hopefully be worth it!

[Steve T]

Hey, countv !

Just a quick "thank you"... Spiderman 3's out today and thanks to you I can enjoy it even thought it's NTSC only!

... or at least I hope so... assuming the UK version isn't vastly different from the USA version... even if so it'll probably be workable.

Cheers!

Can I add my thanks.............4.271% fits perfectly for the PAL version.

Wish I had known that before I spent hours cutting the Eragon riff manually when it only came out in NTSC....still, the result was more than worth it.
