Author Topic: My Bloody Valentine 3D question John Wilson Film God Posts: 5438 From: Sydney, Australia. Registered: Dec 1999 posted 01-28-2009 01:16 PM                     Anyone know why there are two copies of the movie on the hard drive? Is that normal practice or are they different versions somehow? They seem identical.  |  IP: Logged Chase Taylor Expert Film Handler Posts: 175 From: Troy, Alabama, USA Registered: Mar 2001 posted 01-28-2009 01:23 PM                        My hard drive only had the one version on it.

What server/3d system do you use. Also are they marked NGB and igb. These are the two types needed. Non-GhostBusted for Dolby, and GhostBusted for Real D.  |  IP: Logged John Wilson Film God Posts: 5438 From: Sydney, Australia. Registered: Dec 1999 posted 01-28-2009 08:41 PM                     I must be going mad...the drive is only 290GB and the film itself in 149GB so there couldn't have been two on there. I was sure though... Perhaps a glitch in the display. I just put it in again and there's only one on it. Technicolor suggested it must have been the framing chart, but there is no framing chart included on our drive.  |  IP: Logged Dominic Espinosa Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1172 From: California, U.S.A.

Or am I thinking of something else?  |  IP: Logged John Wilson Film God Posts: 5438 From: Sydney, Australia. Registered: Dec 1999 posted 01-28-2009 09:15 PM                     Sorry guys...forgot there was a specific forum for D.  |  IP: Logged Mark Gulbrandsen Resident Trollmaster Posts: 16657 From: Music City Registered: Jun 99 posted 02-05-2009 06:45 PM                     Probably one version Ghost Busted and one version not. Real-D requires Ghost Busting and the other systems out there do not. The studios are riding Read-D very hard to overcome the Ghost Busting problem so they do not have to keep dual inventory.
