K-On!! 01 Blu-Ray Released!

Parted to the other side! Did anyone notice?ย  Now that it’s in Blu-Ray, you can notice.ย  Never again will you miss small details, like which side Yui’s hair is parted to orย the fingerprints on the brass rabbit… or wood rabbit… smallย details like… what the rabbit is made out of…

1080p: The link below this is better

720p: The link above this is better

Edit:

For the final time, you can download K-Lite Codec which is now at version 6.3.0 or you can download the latest CCCP beta version 2010.08.07. Please update your codecs and stop whining. Let’s stop this never ending cycle.

    564.53MB for a 1080 WITH flac….
    must be a bad encode.
    Or it could be K-On!! is one of the most compressible shows

  • Soichiro

    Just because THORA uses 1 GB per episode on Clannad NOT EVEN including the ordered chapters, doesn’t mean that’s the right way to encode shows.

    Just sayin’, bro.

  • LordOmnit

    Why do you do this to me? Now I can’t decide which one to get!
    Thanks for doing though. I just wish you would release —– *transmission lost*

  • ichigo_daisuki

    Thanks for the release ^_^

  • bobwithaC

    I tried playing the OP file seperately and it’s pretty glitchy and delayed..

  • Sahaquiel

    That’s a… small size for a 1080p file.

  • Tow3r

    So should i get 1080 instead of 720 ?

  • Tow3r

    my pc can only display 1680×1050 max ๐Ÿ™

    Since your monitor is above 720p, the 1080p will still look better than 720p for you.

  • gpas

    Hmm I can’t even play the file in mpc with cccp. Had no problems with the blu-rays for the first season though. :/

  • Sahaquiel

    Use CoreAVC. It works for me.
    I would like to know what rules chihiro has for encoding anime.
    I like THORA releases for its high bitrate.

    x264 crf 16 on really slow settings. In other words, it’s going to look basically visually lossless without wasting a lot of bitrate. Whatever THORA does wastes a lot of bitrate. Like I said, making your releases 1 GB doesn’t automatically make them better. In fact, I’d say THORA probably makes their releases 1 GB to compensate for not knowing how to encode properly.

    I mean, you COULD download THORA’s, or you could download ours and get pretty much the same quality at half the filesize. Above a certain bitrate, the human eye can’t even notice a difference, and THORA’s encodes are WAY above that bitrate.

    Hmm… the OP alone works pretty well. The main film (with the OP moved out of the directory) works like a charm, as well. However, the moment when the player jumps from the pre-OP to the OP, audio and video get de-synched, the audio lagging about a second past the video stream.

    (MPC + FFDShow, as well as MPC + CoreAVC. 3.33GHz Core2 w/ AMD 5770)

  • Tow3r

    How do i turn off this piece of crap called ffdshow DXVA video decoder ?? on last OS i turned off all was ok , now i am getting irritated again , cause i cannot watch few files , including this.

  • Sahaquiel

    Go to ffdshow video configuration and in “codec” uncheck H264/AVC. U mnie dziaล‚a/works for me.

  • Tow3r

    doesn’t do anything , unchecked or checked

  • Sahaquiel

    Uninstal it and get the latest version. It’s updated frequently but pay attention during the instalation process what type of codecs you chcek/uncheck

  • Sahaquiel

    I use ffdshow only for playing avi files (xvid, divix, wmv) for H264 I use CoreAVC.

  • Tow3r

    630 is latest , have it , i am not in the mood to bother myself with it at this moment . i go play emo game called D2

  • Ollielufti

    Ive got the latest MPC and codecs, the OP and ED open and play but the actual episode doesnt open in MPC, just stuck on “Opening…”. Anyone else have this?

    Your MPC hasn’t enabled FLAC audio. Go to configuration and change your fddshow audio settings. FLAC is default as disabled, just enable it and you should be fine.

  • Tow3r

    yea that is what i have , need to turn off somehow that crap i was talking about , but no idea , will reinstall in few hours , now busy in SU ,KT

  • DragonRanger

    FFDshow has a problem with how Chihiro do there FLAC cutting (or something similar according to the makers of CCCP). MPC’s internal filter does not. The problem is MPC’s internal filter doesn’t like to be used externally (I’ve spent about a week trying).

    Does anyone know any other FLAC decoders that work with Chihiros videos?

    The reason I need this is I use PS3 Media Server to watch videos on my TV elsewhere. It uses Mencoder without ordered chapter support, so I use Avisynth to feed it video using the same filter chain that MPC should use (Haali, FFDshow for video) but I cant get MPA Decoder (the internal audio filter for MPC) to work properly outside of MPC.

  • Hurr

    Why do you keep hardsubbing your OPs and EDs?

    Why do I have to download the whole raw episode and cut the clean ED just because you’re either incapable or obnoxious idiots?

    I regret ever donating to you.

    Most people use VSFilter to render subtitles, it is a slow piece of shit when doing even \k only so we have to hardsub it.

  • Vakashini

    Quick question: Season 1 or Season 2?

  • Vakashini

    Thx anyway Season 2 ๐Ÿ˜€

  • Nojiko

    ty for the release =)

  • Confuzzled

    wahhh paradox! Brain overload ><!! Which link is the better one?!

  • Ross

    Why can’t I hear any sound with WMP 12?

  • @ Tow3r Instead of ffdshow dvxa, I’ve heard that media player classic 64 bit HH dvxa mode is better then ffdshows. Works great for nvidia. If you have 5xxx with the latest drivers, even an ati card works well with coreavc.

  • sry, I mean’t to say mpc HH 64 bit dvxa mode is better then 64 bit ffdshow. I suggest just using mpcs internal flac.

  • Tow3r

    I fixed it , changed few things , but mainly i just had to enable FLAC in FFDshow audio
    Changed and other things in filters [options] of MPC HC , but mainly it was just FLAC error .

    I have same system from like 3 years q6600 ,8800Gts 640 . see link for more info , but you have to be a member of OCN to see it .

  • How come coreavc is acting stupid with some of your video’s? Is coreavc in need of an update? I normally use internal filters when it happens but I don’t like not using coreavc. After all, I did pay money for it.

  • Kanade

    Not trying to bring any problems, but personally, I hate FLAC audio. I don’t think there is even a stable decoder for it that runs smoothly. And to be honest, can you really hear the difference between FLAC and lowest compression MP3?

  • @Kanade I certainly can. Anyone with ears can. Are you a moron?

    Do you have proof that you can tell the difference? Don’t tell it’s clearer because we all know that. In WHAT WAY? I think many people can’t tell the real differenceand you just called half the world a moron.

  • Ma15

    Thanks Chihiro! I will be downloading your K-On!! BD releases and patiently waiting for the rest of Railgun to finish!

    Thank you!~~~~~

  • Psyme

    Mmmmm…. Season 2…. with no watermarks.

    *Drools*

    Anyway, question, are there any Specials tacked onto the BD release like they did for S1?

    Yes, although we still haven’t decided whether or not we’ll be doing these. Of course, if there is a full BD-only episode, we will do it, but as for the short omake specials, we are as of yet undecided.

  • Vladson

    @nomae
    K-Lite is halting by the way (last one) so you stop whining, not all of us are stupid, you just use normal encoders, and everything will be fine…
    Or you could just use good decoders

    nomae: I didn’t add that edit to the post, nor the comment about “good decoders”. I actually agree with all of you that our encodes are overly restrictive and only run under the best of circumstances, but this is how our encoders insist on working, and there’s nothing I can do about it.

  • wahlaueh

    Thanks for the release! Yummy!
    Anyway, the fix for the problem is pretty easy, for those who still cant play the movie (with MPC, KCP 6.30)
    Go to ffdshow audio decoder (start menu => k-lite codec pack => configuration). On the right column, find FLAC under the format, change the setting from “disabled” to “libavcodec”. Press ok and done.
    Works for me ^_^

  • @wahlaueh sounds about right. I don’t use k-lite or cccp but I can agree with what he said. Its not just video codacs that causes video issues, the audio plays a major roll as well. Recently I found out that on of my videos didn’t play at all on my kmplayer. I was like WTF is wrong?? turns out that my external coreaac was the issue. I disabled that and enabled back the internal one and it worked fine. I doubt it was an issue with kmplayer though but something else, I just didn’t bother to look deep into it.

  • @ DXVA nice link, I recommend that for 64 bit users….. u should use tinyurl next time xD

  • killzone71

    No 480p? :((

  • magnum

    anyone else have it happen where if you let the episode play through linked with ordered chapters, it becomes out of sync starting at the OP and gets worse every time a new chapter starts, but if you skip to different chapters there is no issue. all of the files individually have no sync issues, and i know its not codecs/players, as everything ive ever downloaded from chihiro plays without issue.

  • magnum

    ^^^^^
    disregard. apparently the version of ffdshow i have doesnt play this correctly but the internal filter in mpc-hc does? /facepalm

    guess ill see if i cant figure this one out…

  • Tow3r

    killzone71
    – there is no 480 in Magenta rays .

  • Kanade

    @magnum

    We’ve mentioned this before. But here it is again. In the fddshow video config, you have H.264/AVC defaulted as disabled. Set that to ffmpeg-mt and see if that fixes it.

  • itsmeMARIO

    Thanks for the release. You are full of WIN, no doubt at all.

  • deathmoon

    I seem to be lagging while playing the videos, and I have downloaded all of the codec packs and the newest version of mpc. Idk why, the episode’s video is lagging behind the audio, nothing is playing smoothly.

  • Tow3r

    go right click render settings > vsync > click alternative sync. bye

  • ronelm2000

    Well…I’ll probably be downloading this soon =D

    I’d like K-ON!! in Blue Ray quality…just unsure how to burn in in a DVD somehow =S
