this encode has a different aspect ratio than Netflix. This is due to the fact that 1998/1080 is 1.85, and 1920/1080 is 1.777

Found a DCP, was higher quality than NF, so I spent the last 24hrs encoding it (damn my slow cpu!). Minimal QC, but A/V looks synced, alongside subtitles.

Bit of information for those wondering what a DCP is; It stands for Digital Cinema Package, and is basically what is used inside a cinema to show your favorite movies. They're basically just hundreds of thousands of jpegs, so it typically has dramatically higher quality than your standard Bluray would. However, they're typically encrypted, are very hard for PCs to decode, and are stored in a gamma-adjusted XYZ colorspace, which is nothing like the RGB of your display.

I happened to come across an unencrypted copy of this film on the DHT seas, so I ran it through some colorspace conversions to bring it over to BT.2020 YUV 4:2:2. Colors are slightly different from Netflix, but not in any way that really matters too much. The source is technically 4:4:4 chroma, but the actual master looked to be 4:2:2, so I downsampled back to that, as theres no reason to keep using 4:4:4 if its just "fake" information.

This has significantly better detail retention than Netflix, but I would still keep an eye out for the BD incase any quality and/or scene changes occur on that end.
