If your dealing with a hard subbed video file, I just used subrip to extract them. It can be a pain in the ass if the subtitle colors are hard pin down in the software. Might even end up typing entire lines in manually. But you just select the text color and the texts outline color and the program tries it's best.

If it cant be done easily or gives you problems, sometimes doubling the resolution of the video with some Noise Reduction applied (If your working with animation that has compression artifacts) with avisynth and trying to rip hard subs with subrip will make it a bit easier.

Wow, thanks! That should save me boatloads of time even if it doesn't work perfectly! I'll definitely look into this.

There is a program included called mkvextract which will let you extract video audio, subs, etc from MKV files.

Though as a note, that program is somewhat clunky to use. I would recommend gMKVExtractGUI to make it a little more user-friendly. cool.gif

I just use MKVExtractGUI2.exe it's plenty friendly with a GUI, and works fine for me anytime I have used it. I've had no issues with it.

I never seen one with a g in the name. Possibly because I use an older mkvtoolnix version.

Well sure, to each their own, but recall that initially you told Gold_Ultima to use the mkvextract program that comes with MKVToolNix. wink2.gif

Interesting. I can confirm that no modern version, at least for the last several years, has included any sort of GUI front-end for MKVextract. They have always required you to get a third-party frontend like MKVCleaver or gMKVExtractGUI.

Mine is from 2011 or so, maybe 2012 its pretty aged by now. I got it from someone and never needed to look for an update because everything works just fine and I kinda prefer the older simple GUI after I saw the newest one on a friends computer. Never heard of the MKVCleaver you mentioned until just now.

Currently back to work on Initial D series. Time to get the 1080p release finished.

The Final Stage 1080p scripts are running through the encoder now. Screenshots will be up when they finish.

Thanks for the hard work, any update? Are you planning to do first and second stage in 1080p also?

Well to my surprise, Fifth Stage is not taking nearly as long as estimated to finish. The first 2 episodes already finished.

If this keeps up, this should be done in about a week or so.

Just in case your not keeping up in my Discord or forum or have no idea where to view them, I will give an update that isn't simply just a text change in the original post like it has been. I don't really get on here much lately, except to update the original post with status updates in text. (The original post has been updated, so go read it to see whats currently finished) This way your not still confused as to the progress of 1080p release.

I have just finished Third Stage. The 1080p re-encode for Third Stage seems to have turned out quite nice looking. I managed to improve the detail and clarity a decent amount. I also used a higher bitrate than the old upload I had available so it will now be 12GB instead of 10GB.

(Older vs V2)

https://slowpics.org/comparison/6bac541a-9b...0a-4ef757be69e8


I will begin work on Second Stage next.

Keep up the patience like you had with 720p, and I promise a top notch complete 1080p release as soon as I can finish it all. Time has freed up for me more; so Second, Battle 1&2, and Extra 1&2 stages should go by quite quickly.

See everyone later!

Second Stage 1080p is all finished. Currently running both the Extra Stages 1080p through the encoder and writing both the Battle Stages 1080p scripts for encoding.

Main post and screenshots have been updated.

Apparently the discord invite link was having an issue where it would kick users after a certain amount of time. This was just brought to my attention after it happened to multiple people. I think it might have been a setting called grant temporary membership maybe. I have no way to verify it, so I deleted the old link and updated it. I created a new invite link without the grant temporary membership option.

If you joined and the server just disappeared on you, give the new link a try.
