Video has been completely re-encoded with additional quality upgrades over v2, utilizing techniques developed for our GT and Z Merge releases. Fixes to the Dragon Box video include IVTC, decimation, PAR correction, chromatic aberration reduction, chroma noise reduction, chroma placement adjustment, and blocking treatment/grain retention. You can read more about what this means in the [merge PDF](https://dombito.github.io/mergeproject/R1R2.pdf). Note that this time the two specials have also been encoded with the above fixes. 2. No color correction has been done. It's still in the planning stages, so please don't ask about it.

Broadcast Audio has been upgraded to use Team Mirolo's recent [BA update](https://nyaa.iss.one/view/1422188). While the sources for the BA are the same, Mirolo applied additional filtering to remove hiss without sacrificing quality. Episode 153 and the NEP for 152 come from a newer more recent source. 2. The FUNi "Remastered" dub is unchanged from the previous release, including the re-inserted insert songs. 3. Episodes 2 and 3 of the BLT dub were updated with audio fixes, the rest remain the same. 4. All Harmony Gold episodes were updated to use the newer audio used by Tom_Servo in their [Harmony Gold restoration](https://nyaa.iss.one/view/1314299). 5. A previous issue where the DBOX track was labeled as "English" for episodes 14-153 has been corrected. ### Subtitles | Episodes | Style | Format | Timings | Styler |:--------:|:-------------------------------------------------------:|:------:|:-----:|:-----:| | 1-153, SP1-2 | Stylized OP/ED, OP Credits, Titles, Signs, and Dialogue | ASS | corre | corre / iKaos | 1-153 | Stylized OP Credits, Titles, Signs, Inserts, and NEPs | ASS | corre | corre / iKaos | 1-153, SP1-2 | Basic Subtitles | SRT | Isaac / iKaos | iKaos | 1-153 | English Dubtitles | ASS | OnionEclipse | mgold0704 *All subs originally OCRed by Krycek7o2. NEPs for 31-71 originally done by Krycek7o2. OP and ED styling assistance from Scoped and AnimeAjay. OP credits timed and stylized by dubudavid. Names and romanization contributions from AnimeAjay, dubudavid, professorwho, Herms, Jonhster, and SaiyaJedi. Timings contributed by Team Mirolo. Signs originally created by Evoshare and modified by moi15moi and corre.* **Notes:** 1. Name changes and spelling adjustments have been made to be more inline with our choices made starting in DBGT. These will be ported over to any future DBZ release as well. Some changes were made for consistency across all versions of subtitles (previous release had many differences between stylized and basic subs). 2. All OP/ED stylings have been updated for consistency with our other releases (romanized lyrics on top, English translations on bottom). Romaji were removed from the EDs due to them overlapping credits. 3. OP Credits have been added to the Signs/Titles track. 4. Stylings have been simplified and improved across all subs tracks. New signs have been upgraded for most episodes. All SFX now have proper stylings. 5. Dubtitles have been added for the English FUNi dub, with stylings that match our GT release. 6. Basic subtitles are now in SRT format for compatibility. ### Extras All extras are ported over from our previous release. Aside from name changes to some files, the only differences are the Japanese short previews and trailers, which have had their audio updated where applicable with Team Mirolo's new filtered audio. Subtitles have also been adjusted for consistency. Thanks to dubudavid for updated translations. ### Thanks In addition to the people who worked on our initial release, additional thanks to JySzE, Team Mirolo, dubudavid, corre, Johnster, Romao, vanner64, Tom_Servo, ZeroCool, csmaniac33, Ghosty6464, and Krycek7o2.
