| Beitelman Member 10 Posts 10/11 | Edit: And is it just me, or is the aspect ratio off on the older scenes that have been rereleased? Edited by - Beitelman on 8/20/2013 8:21:51 PM |

| M.B. Senior Member 1679 Posts 2/01 | Anyway...when I'm there I notice a couple of things. All the customers are older than dirt. Fuckers who are so old they can hardly figure out how to use a dvd player never mind get on the internet. The physical product (dvd's) is dying, and fast! They have no customers under the age of 40...zero! That tells you where dvd's are heading...to the fuckin' grave just like most of the brick and mortar stores customers because they are so damn old! Other thing I've noticed is that dvd sales and rentals have declined in such a massive way that toys and sell throughs are the only thing keeping these stores afloat. Sell throughs are dvd's that are older titles and still sealed that have never been viewed. Some deals the stores are offering is buy 4 discs for $10 get one free, that type of shit. I talk to the owners and the clerks working there are they are depressed as shit. Counting the days before the business collapses and they shut down. The companies that have a good handle on the gonzo market like Evil Angel, Jules Jordan and Elegant Angel need to concentrate on their web sites in a serious way. Make sure that EVERYTHING currently being released has a downloadable full HD MP4 option. Get the old stuff released as well and upconvert it to MP4's, even if it's not 1080p, make it available on a MP4 format and make sure the quality is good. If you have multiple directors that own their own stuff like Evil Angel and Jules Jordan do, they need to get all of their directors under one umbrella for the web site, it has to be done. Cut deals with those guys (and girls). There's nothing more frustrating as a consumer or fan of something to find that the directors movies you release on dvd aren't available on your web site as well. You have to be able to offer that. Why? because people feel like they are being ripped off if you don't. Not only that but with the economy being the way it is people can't afford to be members of 5 or 6 different web sites, they just can't. And I know Jules mentioned here that he doesn't like releasing an enire dvd worth of scenes online all at once because he wants us to buy dvd's? Dude you have to be realistic. You say a dvd should be watched with some continuity. The problem with that argument is that none of your movies have a storyline, it's gonzo. Every scene in a movie is completely unrelated to the other scenes, so why would it even matter LOL? Downloading and memberships is where it's at and if a company leaves the impression on a customer that they aren't getting what they feel is a good deal or quality updates you will lose them. Evil Angel and Brazzers seem to have their shit together as much as possible when it comes to their web sites. Kink ahs their shit together in a serious way as well. One update every week, brand new shit. Easy to navigate sites and everything is HD MP4's. Others seem to be severely lacking and will be left behind. I have said this before and I will say it again. Porn desperately needs an itunes type web site. On itunes you can download any song you want from pretty much any artist, they are all there regardless of which record company they are with and you pay per song or per album. Porn needs an itunes type site for scenes and movies. Somebody get a network up where you can download any scene or movie from the best companies. Evil Angel, Elegant Angel, Jules Jordan, Kink, Brazzers, etc. You pay per scene or per movie. People are sick of driving to a store to rent, they are sick of paying for shipping or dealing with defective discs, or customs problems. It's a solution different directors for different companies and the business being fractured in general. if your shit is good it'll sell by way via downloads, if it isn't it won't. |
| NotMyRealName Member 487 Posts 6/13 | 2/24 - Veronica Avluv and Zoey Monroe 2/26 - Phoenix Marie 2/27 - Anikka Albrite 2/28 - Casey Calvert 3/01 - Chanel Preston 3/02 - Keisha Grey 3/03 - Jada Stevens 3/04 - Kageny Linn Karter * That is as good of an update schedule as you will find anywhere online today. Congrats JJV! Hopefully it will bring in a lot of subscriptions to continue making this stuff. Would be cool if you could grow your business so that you could get Mike John and Lisa Ann on your site. That would be huge. |

| billybob Senior Member I don't like condoms in porn. 1115 Posts 9/10 | @shark1 That's exactly what I was wondering i.e about the remastered older stuff 'Now in HD'. I take my hat off to JJ for doing this. I also take my hat off to BangBros for remastering a lot of their older stuff. Any website that actually goes the extra mile like this deserves business. I also just finished a subscription with Kink.com (specifically the Kink Archives Site). Kink is also in the process of remastering/re-encoding their older stuff. Also I think to use the word remaster is slightly misleading. I don't really know how you 'remaster' content originally shot on digital. Because unlike analog digital doesn't degrade obviously. What I think they really mean is 're-encoded' from the crappy mpeg2 codec (WMV etc) into the superior mpeg4 codec. Also maybe they bump up the corresponding bit rate. But re-mastering in the sense that a 35mm Hollywood movie is remastered is incorrect. |

| billybob Senior Member I don't like condoms in porn. 1115 Posts 9/10 | I haven't seen the scenes as yet. But radically changing the aspect ratio is a big no-no. If it was shot in 4:3 just leave it in 4:3. Nothing wrong with high-bitrate 4:3 in the MP4 codec. Nothing whatsoever. Changing 4:3 into 16:9 is ruining the whole scene IMO. Unwatchable. I didn't think of manipulating the colors. But that I guess is under the umbrella of remastering. Increasing the bit-rate substantially as you suggest will help dramatically. Also using the MPEG4 codec as opposed to the old-fashioned and far less efficient MPEG2 codec. I don't know about increasing the FPS up to 60FPS. I think most porn from USA websites is at 29.997FPS. But I've been reading that 60FPS will be the ideal FPS with Ultra HD 4K 2160p content. Also I think 60FPS playback is an issue. Not many software players for PC or Mac actually support playback at true 60FPS. They can play a 60FPS file no problem but what you're actually truly seeing is 30FPS on your monitor. I stand to be corrected on all this stuff. |
| billybob Senior Member I don't like condoms in porn. 1115 Posts 9/10 | Do you know approximately 4:3 / 16:9 cross-over period? What I mean is from what scene/date does the stuff shot in 16:9 start? When does the stuff originally shot in 4:3 finish? I'm guessing 16:9 would've started since at least 2009-2010? Prior to that maybe a mix of 4:3 shooting and 16:9 shooting. I think Jules Jordan has been 16:9 for quite some time. |
| NotMyRealName Member 487 Posts 6/13 | As far as 60 fps issues at playback I think we could be talking about 2 different things. Using a filter or some other post processing effect that interpolates the frames on the fly would probably be where most of the issues occur because it would be more memory intensive (for example if someone created a special a process that forces a frame doubling it could be problematic for those without the hardware to do the work and it would only get worse at larger file sizes and higher resolutions.) The other option here is to do the frame interpolation during the encoding so that those interpolated frames are baked into the new video file. This way the additional processing is not used up on making the frames on the fly (even though it does seem to take more memory for smooth playback.) I'm not an expert in this stuff either so I would welcome an experts opinion on this as well. Here's an example: Bra Busters 3 (Jayden Jaymes) 720p (@60 fps) MP4 29:37 filesize = 904.5 mb Bra Busters 3 (@60 fps) To The Limit (Asa Akira, scene 3) 720p (@29.97) MP4 29:11 filesize = 888.6 mb I'm not sure if BB3 was shot in 29.97 and then re-encoded to 60 or if its shot in 60. That would be a question for JJ. But the comparison is there. The reason why i suggest 60 fps for the old content is that smooth playback should not be an issue since the original dv files aren't huge bitrate/file sizes to begin with. Playback should be very smooth and wouldn't need any extra memory if you are already getting smooth playback with 1080/720 HD files. VLC does just fine. What you would probably end up with is something that is better than SD but not truly HD (but would look great none the less with the addition of the new frames.) I would guess that the process by which they can do this has been improved and simplified over the years since it was introduced. I think your date for the cross-over period is pretty spot on. There might be some videos too that were shot in standard DV that were recorded in widescreen (still 480 squeezed so that the proportions are reproduced correctly in 16:9). |

| M.B. Senior Member 1679 Posts 2/01 | There is widespread agreement in this thread that people want to see every scene from every DVD on the JJ membership site and they want to see it released in order. JJ is committing the worst thing a company trying to sell a product to it's consumers can do: NOT LISTENING TO IT'S CUSTOMERS. JJ, they are telling you they like your stuff, they are telling you they want to be members of your site, they are telling you they want all of the scenes from the DVD's and to give it to them in order and in a timely fashion. Every other site does this. Listen to your customers, otherwise you will lose them. I for one love JJ's stuff, but I have not joined yet and will not until I get word that JJ has changed this idiotic policy of not releasing every scene from every movie, and in order. I have plenty of other options: Evil Angel, Elegant Angel, Brazzers, KinK, ZTOD, Naughty America. The options are endless. They will get my money, JJ will not until something changes over there.

| daviangel Member Only time I would buy a girl flowers is if she was in the hospital 455 Posts 1/04 | Fast to me is being able to saturate my ISP line which means up to around 100Mb/s http://www.speedtest.net/results.php?sh=800bb44deffa21387f395861477b4c4a&ria=0 I've been a member of all the major porn sites i.e. Brazzers, Evil Angel, Elegant Angel, 21Sextury, DDFNetwork, JulesJordan, Twistys, Playboy, etc... and they have all been slow at times except Evil Angel. Don't know what hardware they are using but they must have some serious bandwidth/hardware since everytime I've been a member they have the fastest and consistently fast connection of any pornsite in my opinion. |

| Mass Facialties Deactivated User "Facialized Vol. 7" 2021 AVN Awards Winner: Best Oral Movie 9308 Posts 9/13 | Along with the two you mentioned (Jules Jordan and Evil Angel), the other sites that get talked about here on ADT regularly are Brazzers, Reality Kings, Bang Bros, and HardX. I would recommend checking out a review site like this, Rabbits Reviews, for detailed reviews. Personally, I'd recommend purchasing a membership to Jules Jordan, and I'd also suggest that you Google "jules jordan membership discount" to find multiple sites that offer discounted memberships for it. |

| dpence2013 Deactivated User 69 Posts 6/15 | The only downside is that there is no live updates. It would be great if Jules did a live gonzo type thing for his website. It would be great if there was a live show every week or so. I pay 30 per month and it's the only site I am a member of. Another great thing is that he releases big scenes before the DVD release. I have never bought a porn movie and never will. JJV produces my favorite content. Jules is actually the least favorite content on there surprisingly. Chris Streams and William H's scenes are what continues my membership. I would recommend it to anyone! |
| peculiar Member 7 Posts 4/16 | I´m a member of your site since years - sometimes interrupted for a few months - but coming back regularly. A few days ago I joined again and was looking forward to download your newest scenes. In the past downloading was very fast, not that fast like other sites, but ok. The download speed at the moment is a real disappointment: it needs 12 hours (!) to download a 2,5 GB scene. Download Speed: 60 KB/s! For example: Download from Evil Angel, Brazzers or most of the other sites is only a few minutes for scenes with the same GB size. You see: I have a very fast internet connection. I contacted the technical support - unfortunately no answer until now. Please tell me: What is the problem with your site? Are you having difficulties with your servers? I´m looking forward to your reply! Thanks |
