New Blu-Ray/DVD Releases (8/05/14)

The first weekend of August isn't a bad weekend, at least in terms of box office Tnumbers. Divergent earned $150 million domestically, but wasn't able to win over critics. The only wide release coming out this week that earned good reviews was Oculus, but its reviews were much better than its box office numbers were. Here is Blu-ray and DVD Releases for August 5th, 2014.

Blu-ray Release for first week of August, 2014

I'll Follow You Down Blu-ray

A mystery that essentially announced the return of Haley Joel Osment to screens (he'll next be seen in a month and change in Kevin Smith's body horror indie Tusk), I haven't seen the product, so I can't vouch for it one way or another. If you're interested, I know you can do worse, so there's that.

12 O'Clock Boys Blu-ray

I can't say that I was aware of this documentary's existence prior to sitting down to write this column, if we're being honest. I'm sure it's solid enough, but I have no way to know for sure. You're on your own here kids with this one.

The Full Monty Blu-ray

A box office hit when it landed in theaters in 1997, director Peter Cattaneo's heartfelt comedy follows a group of six unemployed men who decide that they can each make a living as strippers. The film lands on Blu-ray for the first time with lots of special features, including two commentary tracks, deleted scenes and a retrospective look back at the film's impact over the last two decades.

The Man who Knew Too Little Blu-ray

Bill Murray is a hapless Blockbuster Video employee who, although he believes he's playing along to an interactive murder mystery game, is actually caught up in a diabolical plot involving a high-level political assassination. An underappreciated comedy gem, the film hits Blu-ray this week for the first time.

Need for Speed Blu-ray

Act of Valor helmer Scott Waugh brings the hit video game franchise to life with "Breaking Bad" star Aaron Paul behind the wheel in a race where the stakes mean absolutely everything. Paul and Waugh re-team for a new audio commentary track, which is accompanied by a variety of featurettes and deleted scenes. If you missed them when the film hit theaters, you can get it in Blu-ray disc now.

DVD Release for first week of August, 2014

Divergent DVD

Shailene Woodley stars in this adaptation of a dystopian Young Adult novel. After the success of The Hunger Games, Lionsgate upped the production budget for this film and it paid off, more or less. The reviews were mixed, but it earned $150 million domestically and $267 million worldwide.

Community: Season Five DVD

I'm still waiting for the screener for this release. I hear the dream of Six Seasons and a Movie isn't yet dead, so fans should be happy.

Oculus DVD

The best-reviewed wide release on this week's list. Unfortunately, it earned less than $30 million at the box office. Extras on the Blu-ray include an audio commentary track, deleted scenes, making of featurette, and the original short film it is based on. If you are a fan of the genre, it is worth picking up.

God's Not Dead DVD

A faith-based film that is clearly aimed at the choir and no one else. This led to a surprisingly strong box office, but terrible reviews. You are either in the target audience and don't care what I think, or you are not in the target audience and you've already moved onto the next release.

Ping Pong Summer DVD

A limited release that earned mixed reviews and opened below the Mendoza Line. Normally I wouldn't have mentioned it, but it is a slow week. Extras include an audio commentary track and a making of featurette, which is fine for this type of release.

Blu-ray/DVD disc Backup Tips:

So a lot of collectors may consider the digital copy of the new blu-ray dvd releases as the optimal way for safe storage. That is exactly a good idea. And this task can be perfectly completed with Pavtube BDMagic!

This is an easy solution to backup Blu-ray movies with lossless mkv format keeping Dolby Digital TrueHD 7.1 Audio.

Due to Blu-ray protections, you can't play and watch Blu ray movies at will. That is why so many Blu-ray disc owners desire one day BDAV M2TS video (used by Blu-ray Disc) can learn from MKV, an open source video format endowed with same High-def image quality,surrounding sound, multilingual, chapter points as well as menu navigation. With almost Zero-quality loss, ripping Blu-ray to MKV is the best choice.

As earlier Blu-ray Discs save audio in Dolby Digital and DTS codec, most recent Blu-ray movies usually comes with Dolby TrueHD and DTS-MA audio tracks to deliver higher quality audio with 7.1 channels.  And if you are looking to make digital backups of your favorite Blu-ray movies in MKV format with keeping Dolby TrueHD if your HD media player or AV receiver/amplifier decodes Dolby TrueHD.

How to keep Dolby TrueHD 7.1 audio when ripping Blu-ray Discs to MKV?

Guide to Convert PGS to SRT subtitles with SupRip

Struggling converting PGS (blu-ray) subs to .srt but not very succesfull sadly? Here will introduce you the best tool to convert PGS to SRT and give you the easy guide.

PGS Subtitles:

The Bluray m2ts format allows for two types of on-screen overlays that can be used for subtitles. One is based on text but as for now I've seen no BluRay using this one for subs. The other one is the PGS (Presentation Grapic Stream) and consists in bitmaps (and the timeframes on which they have to be displayed). That second stream is by far the most commonly used by BluRays.

SRT Subtitles:

SRT is perhaps the most basic of all subtitle formats. This format is supported by most software video players and subtitle creation programs. The time format used is hours:minutes:seconds:milliseconds, with the milliseconds field precise to three decimal places. The purpose of srt subtitle file is to use it with desired movie file together to display subtitles when you play video file by any player supporting srt subtitles.

It consists of four parts, all in text..

1. A number indicating which subtitle it is in the sequence.
2. The time that the subtitle should appear on the screen, and then disappear.
3. The subtitle itself.
4. A blank line indicating the start of a new subtitle.

SupRip v1.16 Download (Windows ONLY, Mac users you can have a try with Pavtube ByteCopy for Mac if you’re ripping Blu-ray to Mac, which lets you convert Blu-ray .sup subtitles straightly from Blu-ray Disc)

1. Start SupRip, load the SUP file with the “Open” button.

2. Click “Auto-OCR” to automatically scan the whole file and leave any unknown characters alone.

3. Go to the SRT tab

4. Review the subtitles and statistics. Change some options there if you want.

5. Save the SRT file with the “Save” button

How to name multiple srt files so that the language shows to select:

1) name the subtitles exactly as the video stream. E.g. 00033.m2ts-> 00033.srt
2) give an id to subtitles with different languages. E.g. name English subtitles xxx.en.srt and German subtitles xxx.de.srt

What’s annoying- there are lots of spelling mistakes and indistinguishable characters when Auto-OCR is used, and you have to proof and correct them one by one.
