It's called a "monitor".

Incorrect. First of all, don't assume that licensed copies of anything will be competently made. ADV was probably the worst offender in all of history when it came to not knowing what the hell they were doing; their Andromeda DVDs mixed interlaced with progressive footage seemingly at random, and their first batch of Evangelion DVDs were made by literally running their VHS tapes through a capture card. Secondly, anyone who actually knows what the hell they're doing should be able to produce an MPEG video stream that is visually indistinguishable from a competently encoded DVD, and possibly much better-looking than a poorly encoded one if you know what filters and quantization matrices are.Tidalwavex wrote:Their is no way my printer programs could 100% match the label placed on the liscensed hasbro version that was released in december 2011.
Then don't put a label on it. Problem solvedTidalwavex wrote:some of us value our time & could be doing far better things

You're not ripping them off if you buy the rights to watch Darkness Rising in your home. Buying Season 1 accomplishes that.Tidalwavex wrote:From my quick calculations doing a KO of this TF Prime movie using the march 2011 season one TF Prime would require the following.

No, the editing process would take about 2 and a half minutes. The real time-consumers would be installing the requisite software, learning how to use it, ripping the DVDs, creating D2V project files, writing AVIsynth scripts...
Okay, yeah. Point conceded. To be fair, though, this is the same suite of tools that you'll need if you ever decide to make a music video or similar nonsense to put up on Youtube, so it's a solid investment.Tidalwavex wrote:(2)using a blank DVD,That could cost anywhere from $2.00 to $.50 cents depending on how big the QUANTITY of blank DVD's you buy & where you buy it & what brand you buy.

Okay, I'll do it for free. Would you like the DVD sent to your personal address or to a PO Box?

(2)if you make a certain high amount of bootlegs movies using liscensed dvd movies & sell them for profit,then you can get fined & maybe arrested.

it takes more than 3 minutes to edit & splice something togeter like the TF Prime Movie using the march 2012 season one first 5 episodes. the uploading & downloading takes a over a hour.
5-so if your only gonna spend 3 minutes,how can your version compare & be superior to the liscensed companies?
No thanks,nobody gets my personal info. If i needed this & I don't,I'd spend the $10 & keep my personal info a secret.

I never said anything about legality. I just said that you wouldn't be ripping them off.3- so now you saying your edit skills & software are better than the liscensed companies edit skills & software?
Any software that is available to professionals is available to everyone. Of course, you don't really need UBER LEET HAXXOR editing skills or a $1,000 program to cut out the opening and closing credits and possibly the fraction of a second that comes before and after each commercial break.these companies take months,use the best software,the most highly trained people. they spend huge amounts because their perfectionist. their is no way anyone can compete with these companies.
"Professional" does not mean "competent", much less "perfectionist". I already provided examples of DVDs that, as far as I can tell, were encoded by dyslexic Martians with Down's syndrome.it takes more than 3 minutes to edit & splice something togeter like the TF Prime Movie using the march 2012 season one first 5 episodes. the uploading & downloading takes a over a hour.
What the hell are you talking about? Uploading and downloading speeds don't have a goddamn thing to do with how long it takes to edit something.5-so if your only gonna spend 3 minutes,how can your version compare & be superior to the liscensed companies?
Because it only takes 3 minutes to cut out the opening and closing credits and possibly the fraction of a second that comes before and after each commercial break.
To compare: I recently loaded TF '07 into Adobe Premiere Pro and excised approximately 35 minutes of bullshit about "invisible force fields" and "DNA-based computers". It took me less than 35 minutes to do this, and the movie ended up being much, much better as a result. Unfortunately, Premiere crashed while exporting to the Lagarith master file, but the point is that this was actually a much more complex task than splicing a five-part episode together to make a movie, and it was easier than Paris Hilton after a night of heavy drinking.No thanks,nobody gets my personal info. If i needed this & I don't,I'd spend the $10 & keep my personal info a secret.
So a PO Box, then?

Nor do I understand how cutting out ads would suddenly make the original quality deteriorate.
Tidalwavex wrote:1- For me,my specialy is downloading internet movies or u-tube videos. thus a fast internet connection is needed.
2- cutting out ads & splicing scenes in a edit program won't make the original quality deteriorate. I was referring to the meager 2 minute exaggeraged time frame to get this done that cotcoss2012 said it can get done in. I explained the companies hire professionls that take days/weeks/months to edit this stuff to make it look as superior as possible. Sorry I just see a quickie 2 minute edit job looking horrible & amatuer. 2 minutes is only 120 seconds to get the edit job done.
Sure,I have no doubt it can take under 2 minutes to cut out the intro's & outro's,but the quickie end result won't look top notch. people who really care about top quality will spend at least a hour making sure it's perfect & top notch quality.
