Assassin’s Creed (2016) Trailer 1 – 1080p Experimental 5.1 FLAC and AC3

Assassin’s Creed (2016)

20th Century Fox has released the first trailer for Assassin’s Creed (2016) – starring Michael Fassbender. I have put together an experimental 5.1 mix based upon the PCM 2.0 version of the audio. I think the end result is pretty good. If you are interested in comparing the two, I have included the 2.0 track on the .mkv file. The .mkv file has four streams in total, a FLAC 5.1, AC3 5.1, FLAC 2.0 and AC3 2.0. The .mp4 file only has the one audio track – which is the AC3 5.1 experimental mix. You can find these at the Assissin’s Creed (2016) page.

For those of you who have been patiently waiting for a 5.1 studio mix for X-Men: Apocalypse, the wait is soon coming to an end.

The Conjuring 2 (2016) Trailer 2 – 1080p FLAC and AC3 5.1

The Conjuring 2

Time sure does have way of flying by; I can’t believe that I this is my first post of May. Time also seems to be going by fast as we are 5 days from moving. The place is a disaster – but it will soon be done. Sorry for not providing new content recently, I just have not had the time. The good news is that once I get all set up at the new location I will have dedicated space to work on these trailers and I will be able to do 7.1 channel mixes! So, I hope it will be worth the interruption.

I have posted trailer 2 for The Conjuring 2. If you can download using the wetransfer link I would certainly appreciate you using that instead of the direct link. If you are using a system that can not load the wetransfer page, then the direct link is for you.

I have the Assassin’s Creed trailer, but 20th Century Fox has only provided 2 channels again. I will attempt to do one of those “experimental mixes” but there is no guarantee that I can make anything decent out of it. I tried to do one for the most recent X-Men: Apocalypse trailer, but the result was absolutely horrible. This will likely be the last thing I will be working on for the next couple weeks as I need to pack this all up and haul it across town.

The Girl on the Train (2016) Trailer 1R FLAC and AC3 5.1

The Girl on the Train

A few items of note today. First, Trailer 1R for The Girl on the Train, based upon the best selling novel of the same name by Paula Hawkins has been released. It looks like an interesting psychological thriller, and if you have read the book you probably will know all the surprises. Trailer 1R can be found at The Girl on the Train page.

I have the latest trailer for X-Men: Apocalypse but it is only in 2 channel stereo. I tried to do an “experimental mix” but the end result was pretty terrible. The track features a lot of ambient musical sounds that don’t work well at all. So I doubt it will be available anytime soon.

And finally, I am going to be moving some content from thedigitaltheater.com domain to thedigitaltheater.wetransfer.com as the bandwidth usage is getting too high, and I am pretty certain that it will soon draw the attention of the hosting provider as this has to be a bandwidth hog – we will exceed 10 Terabytes for April. The good side to this is that it should improve the site performance – but moving things around is never fun. Going forward new .mp4 files will be hosted on the domain, but for a limited time. Nothing is going away, only the links are changing.

Independence Day: Resurgence (2016) Trailer D Experimental Mix 5.1 – FLAC and AC3

Independence Day: Resurgence

Well, the latest trailer for Independence Day: Resurgence certainly looks great. I have to confess that I am a huge fan of the original. In fact, I just picked it up on Blu-ray, and I hear that there is a 4K version with a DTS:X soundtrack coming soon. Unfortunately, Fox has only released the trailer in 2 channel stereo, so I have put together another “experimental mix” for Trailer D. I think it turned out ok, certainly better than the default 2 channels.

In addition, I also performed a transcode using the High Efficiency Video Codec (HEVC h.265). The result looks very similar to the normal Advanced Video Codec (AVC h.264) but is a lot smaller. The AVC is 425 MB with the FLAC audio, while HEVC comes in at 159 MB including the FLAC audio. I had some problems playing the file in PLEX, but I was able to play it back using GOM Player. Give it a try and let me know what works and does not work for you. H.265 is not yet mainstream, but it will likely be the preferred codec in the near future.

You can get these files at the Independence Day: Resurgence page.

Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them (2016) Trailer 2 FLAC and AC3 5.1

Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them

Trailer 2 for Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them is now available with lossless FLAC audio and AC3 5.1 tracks. Those of you who are Harry Potter fans will be delighted to hear the return of Hedwig’s theme – I know my wife was. Trailer 2 can be found at the Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them page.

I had a reader ask for a list of trailers by upload date. I did some thinking about that, and I have modified the Movie Trailers list page so that it includes the last updated date. You can click on the last updated date column header to sort the table so that the movies are listed in order of update date. That should help those who are interested in quickly seeing what has recently been added.

I will be removing some old trailers and pages soon to make room for new content. I will be publishing a post that will list what is scheduled to be removed and when it will be removed.

I mentioned before that we put our house on the market. I am happy to say that is has sold, and that we have found a new house. The new location will have a dedicated theater room – which will also double as my video editing space. This should help to speed up the workflow as I will have editing and playback in the same space, instead of in two seperate spaces as it is now. The down side in the short term will be a bit of time at the end of May when I suspect that updates will be a little infrequent as things are packed, moved, and unpacked.
