On a side note the standard blu-rays in the pack are also new encodes/pressings. Now 1&2 are AVC not VC1 and the quality and clarity is much better than the original & 30th releases.
My US Steelbooks would not copy, unsure if my firmware update process was sound.WAYFLIX wrote: Mon Oct 19, 2020 9:31 pm For the US steelbook trilogy release 1 and 3 ripped fine. I submitted a dump for Part 2.
MakeMKV creates it for you, and even tells you where it is in the log window.
Is it worth re-ripping the standard BD's? Possibly even bonus features on the BDs?
Given the info posted by Trickyd-1 (thanks!), after that I’d imagine it’s personal preference depending on what you’re looking for. I will be, for an AVC, HDR-less upgrade from the previous Blu-rays. But then again, I’m one of those people who still keeps my DVDs/rips as well (for nostalgia? comparison?) even after I’ve upgraded to Blu-ray.Jordbrett wrote: Tue Oct 20, 2020 4:21 amIs it worth re-ripping the standard BD's?

This review posted over on Blu-Ray.com does a phenomenal job of breaking down some of the differences between the UHD disc, the new remaster and the older blu-ray. There's also some comparison screenshots attached.Jordbrett wrote: Tue Oct 20, 2020 4:21 amIs it worth re-ripping the standard BD's? Possibly even bonus features on the BDs?
It is certainly disappointing to hear that, as most people were dreading but kind of expecting, this isn't yet the perfect version of BTTF, oh Universal
I don't like this guys review. he's saying at one point about red colour bleed on the "white" tremolo bar of a guitar when if you use your eyes you can see that the tremolo bar is chrome and its the reflection of the red guitar on it.preserve wrote: Tue Oct 20, 2020 11:42 pmIt is certainly disappointing to hear that, as most people were dreading but kind of expecting, this isn't yet the perfect version of BTTF, oh UniversalVery helpful review as you mention. Now followed up with his user review of the second film as well:

No, he doesn't say white, he uses the word "while" in that sentence - and if you look at the comparison, you can see that there's no bleed on the previous Blu-ray, so it's definitely some type of issue. The apparent bleed is on the dials as well, which wouldn't reflect entirely red like that if it was a case of reflection. Yes, digital screenshot comparisons will be better when people start to do them.Trickyd-1 wrote: Tue Oct 20, 2020 11:56 pmI don't like this guys review. he's saying at one point about red colour bleed on the "white" tremolo bar of a guitar when if you use your eyes you can see that the tremolo bar is chrome and its the reflection of the red guitar on it.
Definitely disappointed that though it's granted the new transfer and encoded AVC, the first film again has a really low bitrate. Of course bitrate isn't everything and I'll see how the discs actually look this weekend, but it's not inconsequential either.
