This is just the [Some-Stuffs] 720p release with the audio replaced. [Some-Stuffs] used ffmpeg or Handbrake or something equally bad to encode their AAC audio, and it resulted in noticeable distortion in some places. This release is encoded with QAAC from #741362 / #779974.
There are otherwise no changes to the release from [Some-Stuffs] 720p. I think.
EDIT: Upon further review, [Some-Stuffs] did a bad job of handling the BD audio of episodes 02-08 (even the FLAC version), so here’s a patch that replaces that audio. It was amusing to watch their encoder go through various phases of wrongness before eventually settling on the right way to do things, but not as amusing to see that he didn’t go back and fix his mistakes once he’d figured it out.

Thanks, any plans to do the first season of JoJo by [Some-Stuffs], or did that not have the same problem?

No plans. Even if that audio is also messed up (which I have no idea), there’s a healthy number of alternate releases for that show.

Thanks motbob but I don’t think any release from the first season used MMM’s subs besides Some-Stuffs. I have no clue if the audio is messed up either but who knows maybe at some point you’ll look into it. I love your release, keep up the good work!

Is the audio better, because i want the highest quality for this part possible.

@Godzilla69, you can dig up the old threads on nyaa.se (archived now on Pantsu) to find people complaining about the audio in Some-Stuff’s 720p release. The audio in this release should be indistinguishable from Some-Stuffs’ FLAC audio that they used in the 1080p release. However if you want the “highest quality possible” then you’ll probably have to hunt down the Blu-Rays and make a release yourself because Some-Stuffs did a kind of shit job mixing it down to stereo.

OK, I made a patch to replace the audio in Eps. 02-08. The link is in the description.
