Ghostbusters 4K UHD (1984) - Page 23 - Blu-ray Forum

Bluraygeekbbb · 06-18-2016, 05:35 PM

The Ultra 4K disc of Ghostbusters has Cinavia. Despite the fact there are no PC BD-ROMs the support the new format for computers. AACS LA has outlawed PC drives for Ultra 4K discs. But adding Cinavia to the first two Ghostbusters flicks is a bit stupid. Its been on Blu-ray previously without it. Anyone else notice Cinavia logo on back of the case?

Wrong, the new LG drives with BDXL support all are able to read the UHD BDs. I own one of these myself. And Cyberlink has given a prerelease version of PowerDVD with UHD BD support to authoring studios.

The guy works for Turbine and says that they received an according "beta version" from Cyberlink that supports UHD, because someone or other has to test it in the end.

How did you capture these?

Blu-ray holds up perfectly!

Aidey · 06-22-2016, 04:04 PM

i disagree. the blu ray is noisier and has some strange blu noise that is noticeably cleaned up on the UHD but still there.

would like to see some more wide open shots.

Unbelievable Mike! Does it look like the UHD has some filtering or noise reduction being used also? I see more film grain in the MI4k picture.

grain gets thicker because of upscaling to 2160p. when you upscale a picture by 4 times (1080p->2160p), of course the pixels become more visible

I watch my Blu-rays in true 1080p at a reasonable distance, so no problem for me.

The difference is just negligible

It's about the same. The grain looks more "defined" in the UHD version. The color, from comparing them myself, looks much better on the UHD Blu-ray.

Plus, there is the Dolby Atmos track as a bonus.

That's not from the UHD BD is it? The resolution of the grain looks upscaled from HD on both of them.

infiniteCR · 06-22-2016, 05:22 PM

You are right about the grain. The grain looks more defined on the UHD version. I had the mouse over(out) part mixed up. Unbelievable that the details are so similar that I could not even tell which was which when I made that mistake! I see much bigger differences between titles that were released before on bluray and then get new 4k remasters on bluray then between the MI4k and UHD!

The uhd version as far as resolution isn't a revelation but more of a refinement. Throw in p3 color and hdr and that's where the difference lies though not gigantic.
