What did it release at? It's only £18 on Amazon UK

Any idea if the HD collection comes with Japanese audio?

Re: FUNimation "DBZ on Blu-Ray" Survey

What everyone has said is true, the cable has absolute nothing to do with any kind of graphical processing or any real processing whatsoever. It's purely a way of sending the image data to your monitor.

As for the quality of cables - THIS article pretty much explains it all in depth.

Re: YouTube button?

Well I guess it could, especially on the 'Fan-created works' thread, but a like button could come in handy, it could stop people from saying stuff like "I agree" and they might instead add something else to the conversation, or they just won't comment as it would be redundant with a like ...

Like Reddit? That would be a disaster. It just encourages hivemind voting and little discussion.

Re: Is it Dragon Ball or Dragonball?

I found this whilst searching: I think I've explained it before, but here goes: (1) Written in katakana, it's all one word: ドラゴンボール ( doragonbooru ) (2) Written on the tankoubon in "English", it's all in uppercase, but split into two words: DRAGON BALL (3) Written on the kanzenban in "...

Re: Success of a failure... dissecting FUNi's Z dub

Goku's Super Saiyan Transformation scene can be interpreted in different ways. At least that's how I see it. Yes there is definitely a horror element to it but Goku is also going through some crazy emotions. I feel like the Faulconer track really conveyed the emotional storm Goku was experiencing. ...

Re: Audio Comparison: JPN Dragon Box vs. US Dragon Box

Alright, went ahead and did the comparison myself. The first part is the Japanese Dragon Box audio and the second one is the US Dragon Box. https://mega.co.nz/#!5QtHjaqI!cebSw1f8pNFy3t123xVv6xftQF4XYsczISkCzL-oAks Here's the spectral display in the same order: http://speedcap.net/sharing/files/9c/3a...

Re: Audio Comparison: JPN Dragon Box vs. US Dragon Box

I made the latter pseudo-stereo one by delaying the right channel's midrange to make it differ from the left channel. It is what's called "pseudo-stereo." Sharing exactly the same thing on two channels is still mono and not pseudo-stereo. Oh, I thought you'd linked me what I asked for in ...

Re: Audio Comparison: JPN Dragon Box vs. US Dragon Box

Through the YouTube render there's spectrally little difference but I'd love to look at a FLAC comparison so I can see what kind of effect you get from the multilayered mono track @ high bitrate vs. the lower end.

Re: Audio Comparison: JPN Dragon Box vs. US Dragon Box

Also, the Japanese one contains a stereo audio track, which has exactly the same audio on both the left and right channels, so it's not pseudo-stereo. How is that not pseudo-stereo? Real stereo would have different tracks in each channel. The same mono track in two channels doesn't suddenly make it...

Audio Comparison: JPN Dragon Box vs. US Dragon Box

I'm forever hearing rumours that the Japanese Dragon Box has superior audio quality because of its high bitrate and pseudo-stereo presentation. On the other hand, I see retorts of how the low bitrate on the US Dragon Box is sufficient for mono and that there's no discernible difference. I'm a little...

Re: Scott McNeil in Dragon Ball

His Piccolo is the only thing I really miss about my dub upbringing. Living in the UK, he is my only Piccolo. Toshio Furukawa is fantastic but there's just something about McNeil.

Re: What Dragonball Production have you not seen?

I watched 20 minutes of Evolution before giving up. I should probably sit through it fully once at least to see Piccolo in action.

Aside from that, I think it's just Battle of Gods now.
