Is it just me or is the raw kind of choppy in motion? Using VLC and don't usually have a problem. Not here to complain, just seeing if I have a problem on my side. Thanks!

The choppiness is the capper's end and is either an error converting the TS to MP4 (highly likely) or an artifact of bypassing the encryption/obfuscation (possible). It is not your computer.

Initial D never had good quality subtitles and picture quality historically speaking, whether it is from the original VCDs (First Stage) or the fansubs or RAWs in today's HD world. It just seems that no one is interested in it compared to other seasonal animes or Shounen or whatever.

Not bashing fansub groups that pick up Initial D, but the only good one imo was Live Evil & Ideology. Rest of the Initial D fansub groups were :\ at best imo.

Couldn't wait so I took the plunge and just viewed the raw. After not watching Initial D for so long, it was refreshing. However, going on a Gundam binge in between meant that I couldn't get the image of Judau Ashta out of my head when I heard Iketani speak...

It's very choppy for me too.
Might it have something to do with the video not being encoded at 29.97fps? The mediainfo in MPC-HC lists it as Frame rate mode : Variable

Too bad I don't have my TV hooked up or Animax, or I would have recorded it ^^;

It has absolutely nothing whatsoever to do with that. Please see my earlier post explaining the issue. VFR is a modern encoding method designed to save filesize by lowering framerate in scenes that do not change much and increasing it in scenes that are more complex. The issue here is either an issue converting from TS (the original cap format) or an issue with bypassing the PPV protection.

It was also choppy for me in VLC. But when I played it in the CCCP (Combined Community Codec Pack, or something like that) Media Player Classic it played smoothly.

Shinji's humming freaked me out too, but it shows that he is enjoying the rac. And he's feel like he's not pressured at all smile.gif

Then your CCCP must be configured to do some sort of frame interpolation, such as 'smooth video' does in MadVR. It's increasing the output frame rate by 'guessing' what the frames in between are supposed to be.

As a note, I recommend KCP (Kawaii Codec Pack) over CCCP for PC users any day of the week. CCCP is ancient, bloated software. KCP is designed for modern formats and hardware.
