Decided to do these on a whim after I found the DVDISO hidden in some random directories that I was cleaning up.
With them being stuck in a 4:3 box despite being widescreen, figuring out how to scale them was a mayor annoyance. It was too wide to be 16:9, and seemed to be closer to 2:1 after all the cropping was done. To be safe, I stuck with cinema AR (37/20, or 1.85:1). If anyone that has properly figured it out can tell me, that’d be cool. I’ll gladly v2 this.
With the resolution being so low, I was forced to use the sharper tools in my shed. Luckily the artifacting isn’t too bad, it’s mainly the blurriness. Since I didn’t want to go too far, I stuck with using upscaled_sraa
with a high rfactor (3 or something). This worked well for upscaling, and also sorted some of the lineart that was breaking up. The rest is a fairly generic filterchain (adaptive denoise, debanding, strong graining).
Note: It was brought to my attention that the numbering is off, since ED1 was never included in the DVDs. Hence, ED1 is ED2, ED2 is ED3, etc.Take care of this if you wish to add this to your own collection.
