[REL] Le grand chemin (1987)

[Night457]

EDIT: saw your spoiler and saw you had a similar experience to me

Yes! It seems there is a problem with HDTV vs Blu or DVD-sourced subtitles. Maybe in the process of changing the framerate they add frames? Just a guess. It was very exasperating because I thought I had reached the point of being pretty good at resyncing even problematic subtitles. Then I am humbled.

Your spot-checks reassure me, thank you! For a 15Gb monster, the torrent is going rather fast. I was concerned about subtitle sync because I was pretty sure the only subtitles original to the source would be the BD French. I have encountered plenty of torrents and direct-download files where the internal subtitles are NOT EVEN CLOSE to being in sync, so I know they sometimes get added without being carefully checked. C'est la vie. As it has TWO Chinese subtitles, I can be positive the torrent is Chinese-sourced, and the English subtitles may have been thrown in simply to give it a broader international appeal. I certainly can not expect the Chinese originators to carefully check the sync of English subtitles for an occasional surprise loss of sync in the middle of a film.

It's a rip from the Blu-ray and I'm pretty sure, the subs are directly from the disk. And yes: I can confirm, that the English subtitles are in sync.

Yay! Thank you for confirming what DreamScape had partly checked, ghost!

15Gb is more than I really want, but if the end result does not require any more work on my part then it makes it worthwhile. Because at a certain point, I simply want to sit down again with a movie that I KNOW I already like to enjoy it ... and fall asleep 40 minutes in.

That 14 gb might be too much for those who have older computers like me
Picture freezes sometimes

If you like smaller files then Le grand chemin French 1080p HDTV H264-Kesni (available via magnets or uloz is quite OK)

Update: that 3,29 HDTV... it probably have fraction of seconds missing here and there because if I tried to synchronize subs and set first and last spoken line to the place text moved backwards and forwards (from that place in the movie)

This looks like another version of deadman's file, which is one of the ones I found impossible to sync English subtitles with.

That 3,29gb... Ads arent properly cut from there too
Look @ 22:10 mark for example

Residual ads may explain some of the difficulty synching the subs.

I will share the 8GB 1080p.BluRay encode i got from yggtorrent

I would be interested in this goku, if you're still willing. Would you be able to post the subs separately as well?

[ghost]

Well... I edited the 15 GB file a bit and added a German audio track, including synced English subtitles:

I don't know if the picture freezing is worse on older computers, BUT on the original file and my own remux I noticed some digital breakup / glitches for a few seconds at approximate timecodes 56:42, 1:06:31, and 1:37:14. This is also present in ghost's remux, but at different times because his is converted to 25fps from 24fps. I see this across different playback equipment, but they all play through without pause for me.

(Ah well, if we want perfection then we will need another Blu-ray rip from a different disc. 19Gb anyone?)
