If you have the M7 remastered dvd 1 handy to rip to your hard drive, then here's a software patch to get the VIP/Central Anime subtitles onto the dvd.

************************

Macross Frontier Shinsen subs and AiA subs are now defunct. GG subtitler does a good job and they are open to doing fixes on their previous subtitles. I'll start getting their whole collection and upload them soon.

I was watching Gattai+ foganime subs, not GG! Gattai no longer does subtitles either. The last couple of GG subs were pretty good. I'm downloading Menclave subs 1-3, mp4 because of their great subtitling reputation. I prefer .avi for watching on my dvd player on my big screen tv. Once Frontier season 1 finishes up, then we will have a better idea which subtitling group will last the test of time.

iMacross FAQ disappeared from the Movies and TV series thread?

I'm posting to see if the FAQ reappears.

It looks like the this thread has become unpinned. So, if it disappears again you would have to do a search.

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!!!

Macrosshare is dying!! They just deleted that poor guy's Rapidshare account on the grounds of illegal distribution of copyrighted material.

Some links appear to still be working, but who knows for how long. Argh.

:(

EDIT -- I suggest to everyone that cares, that they download as much as they can while it's still possible. Hopefully in the future there will be some other way to share it with the community, especially the rarer stuff like the 20th anniversary DVD and obscure CDs. Me, I was looking forward to checking out all the spanish dubs of Macross Plus, etc.

Perhaps if we have enough stuff we can add it to Gubaba's Huge Macross Torrent, due to go up next year.

Here is a babelfish translation of (requested deletion) MacrosShare first page:

"I have the terrible news…

For Rapidshare.com minutes I have been eliminating the Premium account that provided with accommodations all the archives of blog. The reason was to lower and to raise material illegal. Without previous warning, they erased the user of its system. Links still are working, but not inasmuch as time. This has two possible implications:
1- In the worse one of the cases, the archives seran erasures at any time, reason why I recommend to lower what but they can.
2- All the links have been transformed to Free User Links, osseous if they are not lowered in 90 days, erased.

So that they know, links of blog is converting points to expand the life of the Premium account and also they generated money to be able to pay the dominion. To raise all this material was a work of 2 years, a tremendous wearing down in looking for everything, aim… long lost time, lamentably no longer is income, therefore no longer subire.

The solution that I propose, is that from now on the ascent of archives is distributed between people. This time raising Megaupload, rapidshare, Netload, which is, I hope that possible uploaders can help.
Volunteers contact me at: (defunct)@gmail.com"

That's a bummer. sad.gif

I haven't received any notice from Rapid Share about iMacross4 rapidshare server. Maybe I'm under the radar because I didn't bother posting rapidshare links on a website blog.

I have already downloaded all the macross stuff that I would like from Macross Share, but I haven't bothered with spanish subbed and dubbed stuff nor the robotech stuff nor the .iso dvds nor the megazone stuff nor the new BD Macross Zero files. So, if anybody is interested in that stuff better get downloading soon.

Once Macross Share has is no longer available, I'll upload the Macross stuff that I have to iMacross4.

Good news!

(requested deletion) found out that he received a phishing email about his RapidShare account being closed due "illegal sharing" and all of his Macross Share weblinks are intact.

Here's a babelfish translation of his webpage.
"Stupidly cai in phishing, but the types of rapidshare.com solved to the problem and the account this working, along with all the archives! Almost me cago… Thanks to all by the aid but no longer it is necessary! Greetings"

Business as usual.

Sorry I'm a little late in replying, but thanks for the notice! I was away and did not read the update. Great to hear everything is back on track and I saw on the Macshare forums that they're discussing contingency plans should a real situation occur, which is great.

Absolutely seconded. Its especially useful for those of us who have no real access to macross stuff or who cannot get past brutal exchange rates. Aussie dollar was nearly at the same value as the US a few months ago and now its worth around 60 UC cents. Bloody ridiculous.

iMacross4 UPDATES:

1. SDF TV remastered !!

(I'm working on the subtitles with Gubaba to be released hopefully tomorrow.)

b. Super Deformed SDF Macross TV opening

.mkv + .srt

c. Lynn Minmay SDF Macross TV closing

.mkv + .srt

d. SDF Macross subtitles by ADV

(not corrected for time or diction yet.)

Gubaba and I both bought the SDF TV memorial DVD box set.

Gubaba will be updating the remastered SDF TV subtitles

and I'll be learning how to encode the video and time

the subtitles with Aegisub.

So, we just need to figure out how best to

present the remastered episodes.

The remastered SDF TV video detail is much improved,

but the film grain is just as problematic

as the remastered DYRL movie.

2. Robotech comics

a. BIG UPDATE

3. Macross Frontier

a. BD 1-13 english .ass subtitles

by phunky204

phunky204 needs a little help with episode 4 .ssa subtitle. The cell phone words change position from frame to frame. I don't know how to adjust Aegisub software to get the right positioning.

I updated the Macross Special .ass subtitles for color changes.

PM me if you have any subtitling suggestions or

would like to help me and Gubaba to get the remastered SDF TV series subtitled.

Feb. 8/09

Gubaba checked over a couple of punctuation mistakes and I shifted over the title cards a bit.

I'll be uploading a new .mkv with muxed in .ass subtitle file that works fine with Media Player Classic and Haali Media splitter video codec.

remastered SDF TV UPDATE:

Macross Special .mkv has been take down due to a video glitch with MKVtoolnix.

The video Frames per Second were not encoded properly with MKVtoolnix due to the video being 23.98 fps and not exactly 24 fps. The audio and video were slightly off.

I'm re-encoding a new Macross Special .mkv with Handbrake and uploading asap. I'll see if Handbrake video encoding software can merge in the .ass subtitle files as well. That would keep everything properly sync'd up.

Episode 1 subtitles and remastered sdf tv episode 1.mkv have been retimed and sent to Gubaba for approval.

I have episode 2 and 3 subtitles on hand, but I agree with Gubaba that 1 episode every 2 weeks seems to be the right speed.

Happy Macross Launch Day!

February 7, 2009: The Complete Macross Translation Project has begun!

subtitled SDF Macross Special is now on bittorent at Nyaatorrents

Seeding 1:1 would be appreciated.

The latest Mega Macross Bittorrent Collection news can be found on Gubaba's blog website:

galaxynetwork.blogspot.com

remastered SDF Macross TV episode 1.mkv is almost ready, too.

Then. we'll probably have episode 2 .mkv ready in the next 2 weeks.

So, every two weeks a subtitled remastered sdf tv episode is the schedule we'll try to keep.

Then there's all the other Macross stuff that Gubaba has in store for sharing on bittorrent throughout this year!

Don't thank me. Boinger did all the hard stuff. (Seriously, you don't know how difficult is was to sync everything up properly. A lesser man would've given up.)

All I did was go through the AnimEigo and ADV scripts and picked the best from each. Anybody could've done it.

However,1 seed, 400+ leechers. Seriously, I think rapidshare may be a better distribution mechanism than torrents if Gubaba has a slow connection and can't leave his com on all the time.

If no one wants to help seed, then yes, that's true. But I kind of hope Macrossworlders are better than that.

This isn't about Macross fans being "better than that" - at least not yet. You haven't gotten the initial file(s) out to enough people (or anyone), yet. You need to build a distribution network first. What most fansub groups do is transfer the initial files through a direct distribution method (FTP, IRC, etc.) to dedicated members that help seed the files. You haven't done that, and the multi-part RapidShare that boinger put up (too cumbersome, time-consuming, and complicated) and your torrent (too slow as a multi-user initial distribution method) hasn't had time to reach anyone.

Put simply, you're basically the only one who has the complete file now; so, of course, no one can help seeding, yet.

Not true...look up a couple of posts. Boinger put it up as rapidshare files.

EDIT: Wait...where are they? What happened?

All filesharing starts with one generous person.

Out of those 400 leechers will be a couple of guys who will seed and most likely redistribute the bittorrent and video file to other bittorrent websites.

So, I'm not overly concerned about initial distribution.

I posted all the direct rapidshare links on the my Feb.7/09 post above (15 parts, HJSplit) and

you can also go to the remastered SDF TV series folder on iMacross4.

This rapidshare folder is where I'll be putting all the rest of the remastered subtitled SDF TV episodes on rapidshare and Gubaba will getting the bittorrents initally seeded. .

Also, you can see the beginning of this thread for Chad Dunham's Macross Fan Edits folder, where he'll be upgrading many Macross videos soon enough.

If you snag a copy of the Macross Special off bittorrent or rapidshare, then by all means pass it around through other channels: irc, edonkey, etc.

They're still there, but you didn't read my post. I made reference to them, stating that, for a majority of users, it's overly cumbersome, especially at 10+ parts for a single file.

If you're not worried about initial distribution, that's fine. However, I was making reference to edwin3060's post, making a minor complaint that the current seeder:leecher ratio was 1:400. Nonetheless, how you manage the initial distribution sets the precedent for how everything else works out, as you're pretty much limiting the scope of how many people will actually complete the file(s) by making things hard to get in the first place. (This is why you see many fansub groups thank/credit their "distros" - people who usually have nothing to do with file creation but simply exist to distribute them.)

Rapidshare is only slow if your internet connection is slow and

you couldn't be bothered to spend a few bucks a month for the premium rapidshare account.

A majority of people won't pay.

This may all well happen, but IRC is usually a starting point, not the endpoint. Just making a few suggestions if you really want to reach as many people as possible.

Yep veffidas explained my point more clearly-- also, once someone downloads off rapidshare, how likely is that person to seed the file? I'm not even sure how you're supposed to seed the file once you put it together-- do you have to create a new torrent, or something?

I just woke up and I see that the Availability of the file is only 0.213 now-- up from around 0.11 last night-- that means over the past 8 hrs Gubaba only managed to upload another 10% of the file. I think we really do need a distro network like veffidas says.
