By the way, the NCOP and NCED were encoded with insane overkill (CRF 15). Their file sizes are no indication of the actual episodes. Ie, the OP itself in Episode 1 won’t take up 150 MB and the ED won’t take up 180 MB.
Update: ETA until Episode 1: the .m2ts for episode 1 is 100% complete! Expect a release in an hour or two.

To all telling me to get CoalGirls version: Doki’s video quality is BETTER. And i don’t mind downloading a few gigs more _useful_ data. What i am talking about here is _redundant_ data.
I might go with THORA if the final size will be less than Doki’s, since the reason THORA does ordered chapters is to be able to push the bitrate higher.
@Mati: the question is, why use software that doesn’t fully support an open source specification? It also escapes me why no player on linux officially supports ordered chapters.
@people saying ordered chapters are shit, you have no idea what you are talking about.
I’ll still go for Doki’s.
I also won’t mind having large files since I’m ready to spend my hard earned money for 1tb or 2. If you are going to archive something like this, be prepared. 😀
THORA’s doing this too =/
^ and they did push the filesizes to the max again. That release will probably be bigger than Doki’s despite using ordered chapters.
Btw, what i’m interested in is this:

Check the Subtitles part. For real?
Early indications are that Thora have gone with the official subtitles. The episodes will only be available via IRC until all are complete.
Doki canceled ladies vs butlers blu-ray since thora did it. i hope the same thing doesnt happen again.
[Doki] Clannad 1080p FTW !!!!!
files size isn’t a problem for me…
although for now..I doesn’t have money to buy new harddisk..
and i only use my Core2Duo notebook….
think again if you say you need to buy new HDD just to watch 1080p non-oc….
well, I just have to burn it in my DVD……lol…
1080p is no compromise !!!!
A couple of comparison pics. I’m gonna go with Coalgirls.
Taking no compromises for Clannad.

You may want to redecide after I release episode one. The NCOP/NCED were encoded differently, and not filtered. Since CGi and THORA are filtering, I will apply a filter chain too. (Even though filtering a BD is retarded but there you go, and will lengthen encoding times to many hours instead of 40 minutes.)
Also the screenshots are taken on different PCs (with different renderers), hence the different colours. I will do a comparison of all 3 releases soon.
Soukyuu

——————————————
A few Blu-Ray box sets will come with english subtitles (since we are in the same Blu Ray region, after all). I noticed that Kanon (http://www.play-asia.com/paOS-13-71-a7-49-en-70-3jvj.html) and one of the GitS box sets did as well. The only problem is that they’ll run you ~500+ dollars each.
Is it just me or does the NCED lag a bit around 9-10 seconds into it? I don’t have the best computer setup, but I didn’t have any trouble with NCOP at all. The lag goes away without the subs though. I really don’t get it. I am using CoreAVC.
unless doki does better, im going with thora
coalgirls cut off some of the video around the edges
“@people saying ordered chapters are shit, you have no idea what you are talking about.”
OK then tell me how to get the op and ed en every episode after i burn ordered chapters to DVD. oh wait, you cant. Thats why i hate ordered chapters. When i convert to DVD i lose them and that takes away from the anime experience.
Ill stick with Doki, they always have the best releases and i wont have to worry about it.
Thanks again DOKI!!
@red
yeah it lags, hopefully the karaoke on NCED is off on the actual episode like the NCOP since it does really make your pc cry
@Papaevil
It’s called mkvtoolnix. learn to remux the files back in if you want to burn it to a disk

well *%$@!! hmm Thanks Thaloren. I stand corrected and publicly acknowlegde my ignorance. Yes i am a noob. Its true, however in my defense, ive spent the last 18 years of my life as a US Marine so im a little lacking in the computer knowledge department. Im just learning how to do all this so please accept my ignorance as innocent stupidity.
Any good links to where i can learn about that? I know google is my friend, however, i would like your opinion on good sights or good recommendations freom people who actually know about this stuff.
I thank you guys in advance!

“Update: ETA until Episode 1: the .m2ts for episode 1 is 100% complete! Expect a release in an hour or two.”

@martinez: quote “Holo: sleep happened, I have a big exam on monday, so even clannad may have to wait”. I’m sure the release is imminent – with Holo nothing is short of perfection.
