Author Topic: Van Helsing white line near timecode John Foley Film Handler Posts: 13 From: Rio Vista, CA, USA Registered: Mar 2002 posted 05-10-2004 01:56 PM                     My copy of van helsing has a notice white gap on the soundtrack side at the edge of the picture in a few reels (2 and 4 I think) I think it is on the master print. It projects on the masking, but I can crop that… My concern is that it will play havoc with the dts (it is right next to the time code). I will test it soon. Right now it is in a dolby house. Can any one confirm that they have this gap as well? Can anyone confirm these reels play fine in DTS?  |  IP: Logged Bill Gabel Film God Posts: 3873 From: Technicolor / Postworks NY, USA Registered: Jan 2002 posted 05-10-2004 02:04 PM                     The studio print that I ran two weeks ago here in New York had no white line and it ran fine with no problems in DTS.  |  IP: Logged Mike Olpin Chop Chop!

We have not put it into DTS house, but I expect that it will not be able to track this reel.
