Well, my mega account got blocked and banned.
No links for any end credits until I sort it out, or someone else can hand out links.
This end credit edit trumps previous edits.
1) Hi-res version of Dice & Roll used from the 24-bit/192kHz album.
resampled to 48kHz with SoX to match the bluray sample rate.
2) Lossless DTS-HD Master Audio 7.1 ripped from the bluray, losslessly with FFMPEG (now superior to eac3to; use latest Zeranoe builds)
The Dolby Atmos audio on the UHD-BD is identical to the bluray. No improvement at all, except for those with Dolby Atmos recievers (meta information, anyway).
The bluray audio also does not contain enough information to merit anything greater than stereo, so it was all downmixed to stereo, leaving out the LFE channel.
Even if you do have a subwoofer for the LFE, it's still not advisable to include it in the downmix. Actual Dolby specification recommends not to include LFE.
Simple stereo downmix is recommended for all playback scenarios. Any sort of matrixing with Dolby Pro Logic I/II is only recommended for surround sound receivers with DPL I/II decoders.
Likewise, any Dolby Headphone, ambiophonics, or crossfeed mixing is not suitable for most scenarios, and best for playback setup only with something compatible with such effects (Foobar2000,etc).
I was able to cut the bluray audio so it starts at the blaring, iconic end credits of John William's work and mix it into the trailing end of Dice & Roll.
I had to crush the peaks to the bluray audio as it was too dynamic with peaks far greater than the average power level of the music.
The retail OST is crushed dynamically, so it's super loud when lined up with the bluray.
I could have level matched the OST to meet the bluray power level, but that would be too quiet overall.
So, only radio, pop music levels here.
Everyone did pay for the extra decibels, anyway~
Dice, Roll & Credits
(this shot is not in the final movie, alternate shot was used instead)
PM FOR LINKS (ALAC only from this point forward)
