A goodly number of these I've posted here in the movies section; I checked those that I've d/l'ed, and on Giganews they are all still there (100 days helps!). All the nfos and nzb's look like they're still there as well, so the one's I've missed posting here should still be avilable with a good search engine on your pgm.

why is this a thread?

I think the better question is why is it all in caps?

Looks like he copy and pasted the CAPS part from a nfo or some text source.

A direct 'copy' straight from the a.b.dvd9, pasted here simply if folks missed it. I scan a goodly 10 ng's on a pretty constant basis, looking for nfo's/nzb's, txt's, and a couple other filetypes. Get a rather large amount of what's not 'listed' on Newzbin or here for that matter. These posts are rarely listed on either, so I kinda took it upon myself to list them as I find them.

I do a lot of recoding myself (have a machine set up for that plus burning), so place a high priority on dvd9's (occasionally will pull out a dual-layer disc on great stuff with dts sound or a 'classic', but you'd be surprised at the number of titles that can be 'split' into movie/extras with little or no recoding. And I LIKE extras..! There are a fair amount out there, both in the 'proper' ng or not. But this is just about the best 'source' IF one has a good server; I gave up trying with anything less than Giganews 2-3 years ago, 'pay the man' and rarely get even a single file repair.

The Superbit stuff hopefully upcomming is of great interest, have rarely seen those posted over the years!

Thanks for the info Beck38 And you're right, superbit stuff is rare. It is awesome stuff too!

thanks again!

Cool :D I always try to get a dvd9 instead of the crappy re-encodes the scene groups release with the extras and stuff cut out. Hopefully TRAPDOOR will be able to get the latest films, like the scene does, that way we will be able to get DVD9s

The dvd's are generally of older flicks, but newer issues/re-issues, like 'Forbidden Planet' 50th Anniversary. In that case, I don't think anyone ever posted the 2nd disc with 'The Invisable Boy'. But in doing that, the postings are more in the 2+ discs 'special editions' and the like, rather than the initial single discs.

They all seem to be in a.b.dvd9, even where the 2nd disc is a dvd5. In the case of 'Planet', the film was able to be stripped out no-recode from the extras, the same with D2 and 'The Invisable Boy'. The 'scene' releases attempted to add 'some' of the extras with a recode job.

The uploads look fairly slow, though, maybe 20+ per month. But well worth it.

With internet speeds getting faster and faster this is the way to go. DVD9s are the way of the future, hopefully TRAPDOOR isn't ahead of its time.

Then again, I take a look at these HD posts and my jaw drops. 20 or 40GB....
Yikes. Just when it looks like the speeds improve to make things basically veasable, the amount of data leaps to new heights!

Theres also a new scene group that are doing R1 DVD9s now. They are called XENOFiLE. As far as I know none of their releases are on usenet yet.

They have released so far:
Fast.Food.Nation.LiMiTED.R1.NTSC.DVD9-XENOFiLE
Borat.R1.NTSC.DVD9-XENOFiLE
Half.Nelson.LIMITED.R1.NTSC.DVD9-XENOFiLE
Tenacious.D.The.Pick.Of.Destiny.R1.NTSC.DVD9-XENOFiLE
This.Film.Is.Not.Yet.Rated.LIMITED.R1.NTSC.DVD9-XENOFiLE

Hopefully we'll start to see a lot more DVD9s now :happy:

Hey Beck38 props out to you for the dvd9 releases. Finally got my copy of V for Vendetta. Keep these releases coming your owning the DVD9's. :D

Like I said, I scan/sift/whatever the 10 or so movie groups with a keen eye toward dvd9's. It has tended to come and go over the last x years/months, then there's always the problem of no nfo's, verifying the contents, ect., jisting up an nzb if one wasn't provided, all the usual nonsense. In some cases it's okay to get the typical replica release and such, the extras may be slim to none, and the decisions (if listed!) are what I'd do.

But, on the whole, d/l time/speed/capacity is not at a premium, and I'd rather 'do it myself'. And a lot of folks don't list the recope specs very well if at all, so one really doesn't know what you're getting. But there are some real finds out there, that are pretty stable and continual, at least at present; but some of the best are the easiest to find IF one does the grunt work (tried and true d/l headers and the like).
