Re: Babylon 5 on Blu Ray
Tom is using the original files, though, not rebuilding from scratch. Give those same files to a professional studio (or better, just pay Tom!) and the cost would be pretty low, by the standards of such things. You could render those effects in realtime on a home PC these days! There's nothing quite...

Re: Babylon 5 on Blu Ray
They could have re-rendered a significant chunk of the CGI for a pretty minimal cost. Some of the files were lost, but not all of them - see https://www.youtube.com/@tomsmith6107/videos (he used to have several more videos up). And they could have included both versions of The Gathering in 4:3 on th...

Re: Babylon 5 on Blu Ray
I'm rewatching B5 at the moment. It's a pity it's such a budget release - the show deserves better - but the picture quality is certainly a big step up from the DVDs.
Foundation is a weird show. I'm not impressed with it as an adaptation, but the original Empire stuff is pretty cool.

Re: Star Fleet episode subtitles
The subtitles looked (to me at least) like they were super-imposed as proper text. I remember the typography being sharper than the video itself. They're an optional superimposed layer rather than baked in, yes, but my understanding is the blu-ray format still stores subtitles as images, not text.

Re: Star Fleet episode subtitles
I believe on-disc subtitles use an image-based format, so need OCR to convert them to text for .srt format, and probably some manual correction. Try Subtitle Edit?

Re: X Bomber event in Tokyo in October
It seems possible to me that there might also be other things in the pipeline that we also know nothing about yet. Seems like a bit of a long shot, but I hope you're right! Hmm... it would be a shame not to do anything with all those marionettes and models. If Mysterious Cities of Gold can get a de...
