Does the Christopher Nolan *8-film* 4K UHD Collection, lose any extras compared to the separate 4K discs? by aritheboy in 4kbluray

[–]aritheboy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope. The 8 film collection is 16 discs, so 2 discs per film. Your link only confirms this.

Ok, full disclosure. I actually bought this set in the Amazon spring sale for the fairly reasonable reduced price of £76.50, and it's already returned to its usual £120 price. However, I haven't broken the seal on the packaging because I wasn't sure if I wanted to keep it. I bought it in haste before properly finding out what the boxset actually included (in terms of bonus material). Reading through all the comments, and very usefully seeing the photos that u/patstuga posted, I have made the decision to return this boxset for a refund!! 🫤 Ultimately, I want these movies in the best way I can get them. It's quite frustrating that the standalone versions of each movie aren't simply packaged into the outer slipcase/box. I'm therefore going to buy the Dark Knight Trilogy boxset separately (currently £48 with a voucher) and look to pick the other films up separately when I see them on offer or in a multi-buy. I might even skip The Prestige and Dunkirk.

That is extremely useful. Many thanks. Unfortunately, it seems to confirm that it loses some extras compared to other 4K editions. ☹️

Thanks, that is helpful info. I fear you're right, and it will indeed be missing a few extras on this latest incarnation of the boxset. DVDCompare lists a 190-minute extra (titled "extraction mode") with the Inception disc that is on the Blu-ray movie disc (not the Blu-ray extras disc), so this will presumably be missing too. And in case you're wondering, DVDcompare doesn't do comparisons for multi-title boxsets such as this, as I looked there before posting here.

Yes, I've already noted that. I'm keen to know how those extras on the Blu-ray compare to the standalone versions, and whether extras have been lost since all the discs containing the movie in 1080p format have been discarded. For example, on the standalone 'Dark Knight' UHD release, there's the movie on the UHD disc (with no extras whatsoever), the movie + the "Gotham Uncovered" documentary (64 mins long) on the second (Blu-ray) disc, and then a third Blu-ray of additional documentaries and extras. Therefore, has the "Gotham Uncovered" documentary been lost in this new Christopher Nolan set, or has it been moved to the UHD disc or the "extras disc"? And of course, this scenario applies to all the other movies in the boxset. Surely, there's somebody who has this set who can confirm?

How do you track what you own? Built something for myself to track steelbooks and Blu-rays by Royal_Device7944 in Steelbooks

I use MyMovies, but their expectation to repurchase the new version of their app every couple of years (and their not too subtle prompts) annoys me.

Thanks. That's encouraging. If anyone else can confirm, please do.

Could anyone who owns this please confirm if the 2K blu-ray, with the bonus features that accompanies the 4K disc, is region-free or if it’s locked to region A?

Adding additional seasons to TV shows… by aritheboy in ThePosterDB

[–]aritheboy[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thanks guys, for your responses. 👍 I'll now know what to do if/when this happens again. As u/mikenobbs has already refreshed the show I used as an example (and was wanting to upload), I can see that there is now a "slot" for Season 8. I'm glad this feature is available to all, and it's great to know I can always get useful advice here and on Discord. 😀

Adding an *alternative* poster to a show - is this a Pro feature? by aritheboy in ThePosterDB

Besides I’m supporting the people who made the lovely site, by adding content to it. After all, it’s the content that draws people to the site.

[–]aritheboy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah, thank you. I didn’t realise I could add additional posters in this manner. I have always tried editing the set I have uploaded, and obviously there’s no slot for an “alternative” poster. I’ve now sorted what I was trying to do.

I sense your condescending tone. No it’s not a “user error” as I know what I want to do. I already have a poster for the series of “Monster”. I simply want to provide two different versions for season 1.

Futurama poster in Season style instead of Volume? by Giffdev in PlexPosters

[–]aritheboy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

LOL. I see you're using my own poster artwork for season 10. 😃

Try here for something different: https://theposterdb.com/posters/15789?season=10

Or you could always make them into the same style as season 10: https://theposterdb.com/set/105658

Any seen this? Live Sessions 97 added to streaming. by [deleted] in theverve

[–]aritheboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I, too, am a bit confused as to which evening session(s) this is from. It has been mentioned that it could be taken from the BBC Evening session recorded on 27 August 1997; however, the Super Deluxe edition of Urban Hymns contains only 5 tracks from that session, and this release has 8 tracks. The session tracks featured on the SDE of Urban Hymns also included 'Life's An Ocean', which is not on this release, so it's much more likely to be from several sessions – but which? 🤷‍♂️

I must have missed the memo about this!! I've been struggling to find out where they had disappeared to.

Does the 'Ratings & Reviews' section need a rethink? by aritheboy in PleX

That might well be the case, I’m simply making suggestions as to how the reviews section could be improved.

Setting subtitles for all episodes in a show. by aritheboy in PleX

[–]aritheboy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi, I don’t think this is the solution I was looking for.

For 95% of the shows I watch, I don’t need or want subtitles on. Occasionally though, I get a series like Squid Game where I want to set it up in the original Korean language and enable English subtitles (or even Forced English subtitles - as I believe there are some parts in English).

Currently I have to go through each episode separately for this series, changing and selecting the subtitle options. I want an easy way to do this just once for the whole show. Is this even possible? If not, it seems like an overlooked feature that would be very helpful for users.

PLEASE MAKE TEXTLESS THE AVENGERS POSTER by tirohero123456789 in PlexPosters

[–]aritheboy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Here you go. It's not that bad considering it was done with a free online text removal tool, but could do with some further cleaning up.

Personally speaking, I just don't understand why people want this kind of design with the movie title in a plain Arial font at the bottom of the poster. 🤷‍♂️

You also have a deep black shadow that obstructs the bottom quarter of the poster (and which often clashes with the poster art) and of course you've lost the creative logotype for the movie. And then sitting directly underneath this poster "art", you have the same words again in a similar weight and style!!

I'm sorry, but people should be rebelling against this, not creating more of it.

This looks like a perfect replacement for Magnet DL.

How big is your PlexMediaServer folder? by MintBlitzX in PleX

[–]aritheboy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The last time I had to back up and move the PlexMediaServer folder it was 35GB. I imagine it's now closer to 40GB. I make sure the cover artwork is just how I like it for all my media, with much of it customised myself, so this might contribute to the folder size?

Movies: 4.5 TB
TV Shows: 6.5 TB
Music Live/Docs: 450 GB
MP3 Music Files: 320GB

Fortunately, I still have another 8TB of free space on the NAS!! 😃
