Darker Than Black Season 1 720p Blu-ray
This isn’t really a ‘BSS’ release as it was done only by myself, but I figured I would post it here anyways. This is season 1 encoded directly from the blu-ray with both the Japanese and English audio. I used global tags and editions in order to make it simple to switch to one or the other. Subs are from Sudo with some corrections for terms from R1 subtitles. The typesetting uses some of the new features of vsfilter so it is best viewed with the latest CCCP.
Torrent: Season 1 720p Dual Audio
You can find it on our IRC bot as soon as the files transfer 100%.
XDCC: 182-207@Oryzae
Update:
Some leftover an8 tags from the tv release got left in, some scripts updated.

BSS, seeing as four other Hi-res groups were doing this and you finished four times faster than they will, I find this an incredible feat.
Keep being awesome!
God Bless America.

amazing job.

Thanks!
Does this mean you’ll also do S2 BDs?
November 11th, 2009 at 9:14 pm
Thank you! I’d love to see someone do this with Fullmetal Brotherhood when they dub it and release it on BD. I loved the dub for Fullmetal S1 and the sub. I hope they do something like this with the first season too but I doubt it.

Why you remind me of his death?

@SLUT
I would have done 1080p as well, but I consider the original BD to be an upscale at 1080p, so it’s not really worth it in my opinion.
@Lupin
Yes we will.

ballin’

Awesome. I also fairly enjoyed the dub so that’s a nice addition.
Ps. Yes, looks like this show was produced at 720p. 1080p is yet another upscale job. I guess it must be REALLY expensive to animate a series at 1080p since only a small handful have been to date.

@mreweilk
Yeah, it’s an upscale but i am a big slut for DTB so i went 1080p slut.
November 11th, 2009 at 9:37 pm
Btw, will you guys be uploading the script, too?
November 11th, 2009 at 9:39 pm
@Anonymous
I could but why would you need it?
November 11th, 2009 at 9:45 pm
Well, I got the Bluray raws from a different torrent and just need subs.
November 11th, 2009 at 9:45 pm
Who’s CEB aren’t you BSS?
November 11th, 2009 at 9:54 pm
@Anonymous
I’ve uploaded them to the usual place.

Thank you. Much appreciated.
November 11th, 2009 at 10:22 pm
Looking forward to those DtB2 as well as TM8.0 BD rips!
Thanks again!

Thanks for the release.
November 11th, 2009 at 11:18 pm
it would be awesome if you did the whole series!
November 11th, 2009 at 11:19 pm
sorry never mind read it work
Thanks for the awesome 720P
November 11th, 2009 at 11:21 pm
Should I cry? I mean, this is so… I don’t even… It’s just awesome. Thank you very much!
November 12th, 2009 at 1:15 am
If its possible, can you please do a comparison of Sudo’s hdtv rip vs this? They’re both 720p, so it’d be nice to see the difference >.<

Thanks buddy :)
So this is (marginally) better than Sudo, time to get it weeeeeeee

Fuck yes, Chinese Electric Batman.
November 12th, 2009 at 2:42 pm
not sure where else to ask this, but did minglong go down recently? i am unable to access any of the torrents here T_T
November 12th, 2009 at 7:43 pm
will 480 be avable to?
November 12th, 2009 at 7:45 pm
Of course not.
November 13th, 2009 at 8:38 am
great. +1000,0333 points
November 13th, 2009 at 8:06 pm
Ah, finally a reason to re-watch the show.
Even the OVA is there.
Thanks a lot.
November 13th, 2009 at 9:43 pm
How do you use mkvtoolnix to update the scripts to v2?
November 15th, 2009 at 5:25 pm
by the way, the english dub is as horrible as usual.
November 15th, 2009 at 5:37 pm
Q: is this 5.1ch audio?
November 15th, 2009 at 6:23 pm
@MadVenus
Yes both the Japanese and English tracks are 5.1 AC3.
November 16th, 2009 at 11:51 pm
I’m a bit confused with the updated scripts…
Are they already muxed in with the batch? Or I need to mux them for v2 of some episodes?
November 16th, 2009 at 11:58 pm
You don’t need to do anything, those are just for picky people who like their copies to be perfect. As it is the lines fixed aren’t that big of problems. But yes they aren’t muxed already.
November 17th, 2009 at 6:57 pm
Does anyone have comparison screenshots with CEB, THORA, and/or Grotohun?
November 18th, 2009 at 4:35 am
Aww… Imperfection. Muxing the updated scripts will make the files different (wants perfect hash, too picky lol).
November 18th, 2009 at 1:37 pm
700mb/ep seems ridiculous,. I have the original DtB HDTV release by Shinsen-subs/syndicate, and at 170mb/ep they were able to maintain an HDquality release despite the small file…. BUT AGAIN! after downloading the first few eps released by BSS/CEB? I can now honestly say “Another reason redownload/rewatch DtB S1″,..DtB in Blu-ray HD quality is very tempting (dual audio is a bonus, but of course I prefer the jap audio with subs).
Thanks and more power to BSS!
November 21st, 2009 at 4:56 am
And here I was, thinking 480 is good enough for archiving.
Thanks for this and the new season too!
February 1st, 2010 at 3:13 pm
So, now that Oryzae seems to have died, how’d I do to get my hands on these delicious bd’s? D:
February 2nd, 2010 at 3:01 pm
Torrent is your best bet.
February 8th, 2010 at 5:45 am
Too bad that doesn’t really work for me then : <
May 6th, 2010 at 11:52 pm
Keep up the good work mate :D
